The game developers over a Crytek have been working hard at bringing new content to Hunt Showdown. In a new video released today they discussed the content additions and how those work. The devs also directly address camping in the game as well and why they nerfed bunny-hopping. The low end weapons have also been scaled up so that new players have a better chance at survival in the game.
A lot of us have been playing on the Hunt Showdown Test Servers, which went offline as I was typing this. We should see these new changes rolled into the active game servers soon.
One thing that was not discussed in the video was that Crytek found a bug in the game's HUD overlay. The fixes applied to the HUD have greatly improved performance for many people. Crytek also did roll out a performance patch a few weeks ago. Between these two changes, a lot more folks will now be able to have a very good Hunt Showdown experience on lesser machines. The game is now in what I would consider a beta phase, available in Early Release on Steam. It is $30 and one of the best co-op gaming experiences I have had in a very long time.
Check out the video.
We take a look at the new content of patch 1 with David West our Senior System Designer and Dennis Schwarz our Lead Designer. You’ll be able to see all the highlights of the new patch as well as the and how!
