Hey everyone, this is a pretty big patch so here are the details.
NETWORK STABILITY IMPROVEMENTS
- We have changed up the way our networking works, and players should no longer load in with blank textures, missing inventories, or lack of tools.
- We have temporarily limited the games fps to 60, as higher framerates were causing stability issues for clients. We hope to fix this soon, but for now a 60 fps frame limit will provide a smooth online experience.
NEW ITEMS
- Beacon: Placing this down provides a way point all players can see from any distance to help them navigate to you.
- Blood Scanner: Using this temporarily gives you vision of enemies around you, lasts for one minute.
- Hazard Scanner: Using this temporarily gives you vision of leeches and landmines around you, lasts for one minute.
Changelog:
- Multiple changes to the UI, making it easier to navigate. Evidence log now matches the rest of the UI style.
- Optimized networking load for all players.
- Reduced Smoker spawn rate during fog storms, should make them much more manageable. Even more so in Single Player.
