Hunters,
Here are the patch notes for the latest update for Closed Alpha:
Client version: v0.119
Steam build number: 2533392
Estimated download size: 620MB
Known issues:
- We are investigating cases of the Crycloud error 0x17da that occurred during testing. If you receive this error, please logout of the Steam Client (exit or change user) and log back in to resolve this issue.
- In some cases, playing several rounds in a row without restarting the game can cause issues with the lighting in-game. Restarting the game will resolve this. We are currently investigating and will update when we know more.
Patch Highlights:
Client stability:
We have implemented a possible fix for the freezing and crashing issues that were related to high memory consumption from some particle effects in game.
We have also implemented a fix for a crash that was occurring when trying to leave a match too quickly after pressing “unready” while in the matchmaking screen.
General updates:
Bloodline
- Bloodline rank has been reset to rank 1.
Bosses
- Increased the health of the Spider
- Increased the range of the Spider’s jump attack
- Decreased the Butcher’s run speed slightly
- Increased the cool down for the Butcher’s fire attack
Missions
- Added a teaser for “random mission” selection to the contracts page. (Feature coming soon! More details to follow)
Spawn point selection
- We have temporarily removed this feature due to it not functioning as intended. This will be added again once we have ironed out the current issues.
Major Bug fixes:
- Fixed a bug that would cause the butcher to disappear if killed in certain parts of the arenas
- Implemented a potential fix for a crash that would occur when transitioning from the game to the summary screen
- Implemented a potential fix for a crash relating to the network buffer reaching its capacity
- Implemented a potential fix for a rare crash that would occur when sending a Steam invite
- A minus symbol has been added to the “friendly fire” remark on the summary screen
- Fixed an audio bug relating to the extraction points (Stage coach horses). The horses will now audibly react when enemy players are nearby
- Antialiasing options are now generating the correct textures
Minor Bug Fixes:
- Depth of field option can now be changed and will not reset once you apply the settings
- Fixed a bug in the UI that would display a message stating “no dedicated servers available” due to the server taking a longer time to respond
- Fixed a bug that would display “white balls” at the top of signposts instead of an actual sign when in close proximity
- Silhouette of objects are no longer rendered through other solid objects (walls, doors, etc.)
- Minor localization fixes
Please be aware that the fixes implemented today are tentative. We will be closely monitoring for issues once the update is live. If you continue to encounter crashes after this update, we would ask that you ensure to send a crash report. In most cases, the crash report tool will pop up. If it does, please click “send report” as this will help us to track, pinpoint, and investigate the causes of these crashes. We would ask that when this pop up appears, to please ensure to include some details of the crash, and not statements like “it crashed again” or “Fix this”.
Thanks.
