The developers of Terminator: Dark Fate – Defiance have released a second hotfix for the Uprising DLC, targeting various minor issues and adjusting gameplay balance. This update, version 1.07.1145.2, focuses solely on the DLC and does not affect the base game. Players will now notice reduced aggression from AI factions on the strategic map, making it less likely for sectors—especially player-controlled ones—to be attacked as frequently across all difficulty settings.
Other adjustments include an extra supply vehicle slot for reinforcements in specific sector missions, fine-tuning of enemy unit composition in Mount Vernon defense, and balance improvements in Sector 15 involving both Cartel and The One Sun factions. Additionally, various quality-of-life enhancements have been made, such as clearer visual indicators for dangerous sectors, pathfinding refinements, localization improvements, and briefing text readability.
