Hunt: Showdown has received Update 1.7 last week that introduced the highly requested reconnect feature. While the update added tons of new content and improvements, it also introduced an unintended bug which rendered some hunters invincible. That is why the developers deployed Update 1.7.0.1 to fix it.
The game is intended to be challenging and whenever someone exploits a bug that makes them unkillable, this is unacceptable to the developers and the community. Those who play legitimately need no longer worry as the invincibility bug has been squashed.
There are other issues that have been addressed as well. For instance, you’re probably annoyed by the in-game news feed as it keeps on appearing on the screen after each game session. Or perhaps you do not like that the D-pad or arrow keys are not working as intended. Well, these problems have been fixed, so do update your client as soon as possible.
