Rebelion has issued another large patch for Aliens Vs Predator, their most recent first person shooter. While there’s no new maps in this update it does have quite a few small features and bug fixes.

New Features:
* In multiplayer damage from the Predator Smart Disc has been reduced, unless it’s a headshot.
