Hunt: Showdown, the PvE game by Crytek, received a hotfix today. Update 1.7.2.2 is now available to download. While the patch is mostly focused on bug fixes, it does add features related to the upcoming Twitch drops campaign.
You can read the bugs and issues addressed by this patch below:
- Fixed a bug that prevented players from consistently placing bear traps.
- Fixed an issue that caused elements of the UI to be missing.
- Fixed a bug that caused the “hot” news pop-up to appear when returning to the lobby after a match.
- Fixed a bug that prevented the confirmation pop-up from appearing when claiming the last part of the Dark Tribute.
- Fixed a bug that caused players to appear empty-handed or to have the wrong item in their hands from the third-person perspective. In some cases, this could present as some unusual kills and unexplainable kills (for example, being shot through a wall but the death screen shows a bear trap).
- Fixed an audio issue tied to Dark Tribute. The audio tied to this feature will now play as intended.
- Fixed the “Make Deal” button to display the correct text instead of a UI_String.
- Fixed a bug that caused the issue with the UI in the lobby screen (incorrect spacing for the tabs at the top of the screen).
- Fixed a bug that caused a Dark tribute pop-up to appear twice in instances where you have unlocked the Legendary Hunter.
- Fixed a bug that caused the EXP text of the Dark tribute to not be correctly aligned with the rest of the UI.
- Corrected the stats shown for the Poison Trip mines. “Damage” text has been updated to “Damage per tick” and the value has been corrected to show as 10, instead of the current 13 (this is not a change to the stats, just the details displayed as they were incorrect).
