Hotfix #2 - Update 1.6.1.2



Hunters,

Below are the notes for the second hotfix to Update 1.6.1.1:



  • Increased the chance to encounter the new time of day - Sundown.


Developer Note: Sundown has been changed to be daytime variant rather than a low visibility night time variant. This means we have increased the chance to encounter this to be inline with the other day time variations.




  • Fixed a bug that caused players to encounter the 0x20007 error when queueuing for Quickplay.
  • Fixed a bug that caused the legendary skins tied to throwabale items to be removed from the weapon when hitting AI.
  • Fixed a bug that caused AI to T-pose for one frame after being killed.
  • Fixed an issues that caused aspects of the "Thrid Son" legendary hunter to not be visible when GPU tessellation was enabled.
  • Improved visibility / lowered obstructions for Scopes in certain times of day by reducing lens reflections while in ADS. Applies to all scoped weapons.

Light the Shadow event stats and a Thank you from the Hunt Team.



Hunters

We wanted to take a moment to talk about our saome aspects of the current on-going event – Light the Shadow.

The first week (plus a day or two) have been so awesome so far. Thanks to all of you, we achieved a pretty big milestone – we broke our max concurrent player numbers and hit a total of 34.8k active players at once. This is a huge moment for us, as this is the 3rd time this year we have managed to smash our previous peak players...but this would not be possible if it were not for our amazing and supportive community.

From everyone here at the team, we want to thank you for this level of support. Hunt has been a labour of love for us and seeing so many of you join this event has been incredible.

Normally we would wait until the end of the event to show of some of the stats, but on top of thanking you all we wanted to give you a few details of what you as a community have accomplished so far:

[h3]Total event points in the first week: [/h3]

[h2]181,130,050 [/h2]


[h3]Total points earned from killing armoured with the throwing axe: [/h3]

[h2]12,539,310[/h2]


[h3]Total points earned from killing Hive’s with the Bow: [/h3]

[h2]23,091,002[/h2]


[h3]Total points earned from looting Hunters: [/h3]

[h2]55,506,009[/h2]


We’ll have more stats over the coming weeks as well as some totals once the event has ended. Don't forget that we have the Deluxe Edition Bundle available and even if you already own the game, you can get many DLCs for a great price!

Once again, we would like to say a big thank you to everyone for the support you have shown us over the years and with this event. We cannot express in words what this means to us.

Happy Event points Hunting!

~The Hunt Team
