Bankshot Billiards 2 get’s updated

pixelStorm announced on the official xbox forum recently that they had put out a patch for Bankshot Billiards. Here’s the post:

Here are the items we have addressed in the patch:

• -Ranked live games causing a freeze or crash
• -Player match games now show the other players aiming aid level
• -Default time for ranked mode games was changed to 60 seconds
• -When a timer expires in a live game the following player has ball in hand
• -Shot panel now shows the buttons that must be held down to activate the various features (english, spin, power)
• -200 games achievement now given away when 200 games are played instead of won (this is inline with the description now)
• -Single player leaderboards cap the display to hours now instead of a single hour
• -Music tracks would not sync to defaults when a client quit (in certain conditions)
• -3D camera modes (so this is only a 2D game, right?)

The 3D modes are accessed via the D pad during gameplay:

• Up: Reverts to the top view camera
• Down: Static camera (zooms out from location of shot)
• Left: Dynamic camera (follows action)
• Right: Cue ball camera (use the left analog stick to rotate around the cue ball and zoom in / out)

This took a lot longer to release then to assemble, so thanks for hanging in there!
