Update 1.5.2.1 - Hotfix



Hunters,

Below are the update notes for the hotfx to Update 1.5.2:




[h2]Gunplay[/h2]

  • Slightly decreased the splash damage dealt explosive ammo for the Sprinfield compact variants and the Caldwell conversion Uppercut to make it less likely to be able to "Double-tap" enemy hunters.
    • It will still be possible to finish off an enemy hunter with an explosive hit, if the first shot was a direct hit, but you can no longer down a hunter will two close proximity shots.
  • Additional developer logging options have added to help us better identify any potential hit validation issues that may occur moving forward.




[h2]Gunplay[/h2]

  • Fixed a bug that resulted in small mouse movements not being correctly detected by the game.
  • Fixed a bug that caused the incorrect 3rd person animations for hunters to be shown when using the Winfield Marksman and the Winfield Vandal deadeye (the hunters head was looking in a different direction then where they were aiming).
  • Fixed a bug that caused the hunters fingers to be incorrectly visible when shooting the Winfield Centennial when in ADS while having the Iron repeater trait.
  • Fixed a bug that allowed players to melee when the map was open.
  • Fixed some potential hit validation issues that could occur when shots were fired at the moment of your hunters death.



[h2]UI[/h2]
  • Fixed a bug that caused the a few buttons to be missing from the training screen.
