[h3]Thank you to everyone who participated in the Winter Open Beta and provided feedback![/h3][p]
Since the Open Beta ended, we have been working on some issues based on the feedback you shared with us. Below is a summary of the changes we've made so far: [/p][p][/p][p][/p][h3]「 ✦ Gameplay Fixes and Adjustments ✦ 」[/h3][p][/p][p]Item Exploit Fixed [/p][p]Fixed an issue where players could rapidly spam the throw and equip actions with the same item. This allowed the item to be thrown and caught almost instantly.[/p][p][/p][p]Jetpack and Crouch Interaction Updated[/p][p]Crouching while using the jetpack now increases gravity. This allows players to descend in a more controlled way.[/p][p][/p][p]Auto-Aim Limited[/p][p]The auto-aim angle is now capped. This prevents unrealistic targeting and improves fairness.[/p][p][/p][p]Host Jump Value Rebalanced[/p][p]The jump value on the host was previously reduced too much. It has now been adjusted to improve gameplay consistency.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][h3]「 ✦ Performance and Graphics ✦ 」[/h3][p][/p][p]VSync Resource Usage[/p][p]When VSync was set to OFF, the game used excessive resources. This behavior has been addressed. VSync is now set to ON by default when launching the game.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][h3]「 ✦ Map Improvements ✦ 」[/h3][p][/p][p]Jungle Map Camera Adjustments[/p][p]The camera angle and behavior on the Jungle map have been adjusted. Further refinements may be added in future updates.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]We will continue monitoring feedback and making improvements.[/p][p]Thank you again for testing and helping us improve Drunkonauts! 💙[/p][p][/p][p]Stay tuned for some big news!
