Noch vor dem offiziellem Release am Freitag kündigt Zipper Interactive den ersten Patch (V.1.01) zu ihrem Online-Shooter M.A.G an. Dieser korrigiert diverse Fehler, die noch in der finalen Version gefunden worden sind.
So wird es mit dem Patch z.B. möglich sein ein Messer auf den Feind zu werfen während man eine Waffe nach lädt. Ein Feature, das oft nachgefragt wurde. Außerdem hat man die Framerate deutlich erhöht, sowie wurden ein paar Lichteinstellungen für die Umgebung erhöht und die Zeit bis der Spieler durchs rennen erschöpft ist verlängert.
