M.E.G HQ TRANSMISSIONS • 0.3.352

M.E.G Transmissions

• New: live HQ transmissions • M.E.G HQ now breaks into your helmet display with short glitched transmissions as you reach mission milestones, for extra atmosphere and guidance. Fully localized.

Hiding Spots

• Killed through closed wardrobes • Creatures could kill players hiding inside a closed wardrobe (most often in the Attic and Suburbs) when the hide failed to register. Hiding inside now reliably protects you, including when several players pile into the same spot or join a moment late.
• Creatures stuck on cars • Cars are now solid obstacles to creatures, so a creature can no longer try to walk through a car to reach you and wedge against it. It paths around instead.

Creature AI

• Crouch is now real stealth • Crouching makes you near-silent and far harder to sense by presence alone. After you hide and a creature wanders off, you can crouch back out and slip away • as long as it doesn't actually see you. Standing, jogging and sprinting are as loud as before.
• Sharper creature audio • The Wretch can be heard from noticeably farther, the Hound's growls now react to how aggressive and fast it is, and Partygoers murmur as they wander.

Co-op

• Tool skins show for everyone • The skin on a held tool now appears correctly to all players in co-op, not just to its owner.
• Revive prompt restored • The "Revive" prompt is back on downed teammates, so you can clearly see when and how to pick someone up.

View & UI

• View no longer stuck looking up or down • After using the body camera and then dying, respawning or finishing a level, your look range could stay narrowed. It is now restored properly.
• Clearer Lab storage • The L.A.B. storage screen now spells out the core rule • stored gear stays in the Lab and never follows you into the levels • with clearer safety labels.

Localization

• More languages, fewer missing characters • Interaction prompts, tool and wheel menus and more UI text are now translated across our supported languages. Fixed missing-character boxes for Chinese, Korean and others on the bug-report form and the tool wheel.

Big one this update • hiding spots finally behave, and crouch actually keeps you hidden. Thanks for all the reports that made these fixable.
