Console Highlights

30 FPS cap removal for Xbox Series S/X and Playstation 5

With Update 1.7 we are removing the cap of 30 FPS for the Xbox Series S/X and PS5. This will allow those of you on the newest generation of consoles to play Hunt at up to 60FPS.

Reconnect Support

Update 1.7 brings with it the introduction of the Reconnect feature – the ability to reconnect to a Bounty Hunt mission in cases where your connection has been lost or the game has crashed. There are two ways in which this will attempt to restore the connection:

  • “On the Fly” 60 second reconnect:
    • In instances where you lose connection to the server, but the game client is still running, we will attempt to restore the connection and get you back into the mission.
  • Game client crash/client restart/kick to main menu reconnect:
    • In instances where either the game client crashes, or if you restart the game while in a mission, a prompt will appear which will give you the option to reconnect to the mission or abandon your hunter.
    • This prompt will show the remaining mission time, the current state of you and your teammates:
      • Alive.
      • Downed – can be revived.
      • Dead – Redskulled/cannot be revived.
      • Burning while downed (better hurry, you might be able to get back and put them out!).

Developer Note:

This reconnect feature has been a huge undertaking, even bigger as it was something done post game-launch, but we are very happy to be able to bring this long-standing community request to you all. We feel this is a great addition and should allow many of you the opportunity to not lose hunters when losing connection to the game.

This feature has been a long time in the works and something we wanted to make as solid as possible before introducing it to the game. As this is a new system, we expect there may be some edge cases that might pop up. If they do, please make sure to forward them to our community managers and customer service team to ensure that we can address them as quickly as possible.

New Weapon: Berthier Mle 92
The Berthier Mle 92 is a new large slot, long ammo carbine rifle with a 3-round capacity ‘en-bloc’ clip loading mechanism. The Berthier adds a unique gameplay element to the current long ammo rifle lineup available in the arsenal. Originally, this was introduced as an alternative to the Lebel rifle with the rear echelon and cavalry troops in the French military (that is your fun history fact for the day folks). The Berthier excels as a lightweight yet powerful weapons that brings a lot of flexibility to the table.

Loading Mechanism Overview
The three round clips cannot be ‘topped off’ one bullet at a time, like some other weapons, and must be removed to reload, either through manual or auto ejection. Once the last round of the clip has been chambered, the clip will automatically be ejected from the bottom of the weapon (like the Bornheim). The clip can also be manually ejected through the breach with the mag release button on the front of the trigger guard.

Manually reloading with this weapon will take slightly more effort as it requires players to choose whether to fire the remaining rounds and go for the fast reload of a full clip or spend the extra time reloading manually by extracting the half finish clip.

Reloading
Performing a partial reload can eject up to 2 unspent rounds if timed poorly and without Bulletgrubber, which gives some extra value to this trait in combination with the Berthier. It is important to note that the complex loading mechanism means partial reloads take longer and the fastest operating speed can be achieved by cycling/shooting the 3 rounds and then reload.

This complex mechanism also has an impact on interrupting shots with a reload. Without the trait, you will not be able to save a round in this manner like with other weapons in Hunt. Players will need to be cautious when it comes to reloading but using this weapon in the manner expected ensures that it is a fast and competitive weapon choice.

Ammo switch
The Berthier will be the first weapon outside of the one-shot rifles that can utilize two different ammo types. Since the design brings a clip that must be empty before performing a reload, this opens the ability to easily switch between two types of ammo.

Ammo types (Custom Ammo)

  • Basic – Ammo – 3/6 per slot
  • Spitzer – Ammo – 3/6 per slot
  • Incendiary – Ammo – 3/6 per slot

Developer Note:

Deciding on the main ammo is even more important than with other weapons that support multiple ammo types. Where other weapons give you an extra round, the Berthier gives you three extra rounds loaded directly into the weapon for the main ammo types. So choose wisely, if you’d prefer to have more Spitzer, Incendiary or basic ammunition.

  • “While in Dark Sight, doubles the rate at which Health and Stamina regenerate.”

Loadout Presets

Another long-standing community request is being added with Update 1.7 – Loadout Presets. Now players will have the ability to create specific loadouts to allow you to quickly equip the items you want and get into the action as quickly as possible.

  • Loadout presets can be accessed through the roster screen (a button marked ‘Custom’ can be found above your weapons on the equipment screen).
  • This will open a new window that will show your loadout presets.
  • Each player has been granted 3 loadout preset slots.
  • Players will be able to unlock a maximum of 10 slots in total.
    • Extra slots are purchasable with Bloodbonds.
  • Presets will be available to anyone that has completed the trainee mode (reach Bloodline Rank 11)
  • Each slot can be renamed for better organization.
  • Quick access options available – selecting equipment while the loadout box is open will bring you to the correct section and allow you to quickly change the item.
  • Clicking outside of the box will close it (no longer only from pressing the “close” button)
  • If you do not have the required items in your inventory, the missing equipment will automatically be purchased.
    • Items will only be auto purchased if you meet the requirements (rank, money, trait points etc.)

Developer Note:
When it came to a feature like this, the team really wanted to ensure that something meaningful and useful was brought to the table, and not just a basic concept. The team has put a lot of thought into this feature, specifically trying to cover not only what is needed in a feature like this, but also what extra bits players might like to have. Therefore, we have added the “tickers” to ensure that players have as much control over their loadouts as possible.

These tickers will allow you to not only create full loadouts, but also consumable or tool only loadouts as well as an option to prioritize adding contraband items to your loadout to save some Hunt dollars. This level of detail will make creating your loadouts far more streamlined and will cut back on the downtime between missions. We are very happy with the design of this new feature and hope you will enjoy it as much as we do.

AI

  • A major clean-up pass has been performed on the Butcher to fix several minor glitches and bugs. Below are the most notable fixes:
    • The Butcher should now correctly attack the target that it initially spots.
    • Fixed some erratic movement issues that could occur after a melee attack.
    • Fixed a rare issue that caused the Butcher to attack more aggressively than intended.
    • Fixed an issue where the Butcher could be lured out of the arena but then get stuck in the doorway.
    • Improved the anti-exploit behaviour when players are near the arena entrances.
    • Fixed some smaller issues that resulted in the Butcher not perceiving players correctly.
    • Fixed an issue where the dead Butcher would make a noise in reaction to player actions.
  • We also took this opportunity to make some minor behavioral tweaks:
    • Improved the aim of the Butcher in instances where players are partially obscured from his view.
    • Improvements made to the melee attack of the Butcher to reduce the clipping issues that can occur when he performs an attack near a wall.
    • The Butcher’s hook will not re-ignite when receiving fire damage after it has been extinguished.
    • A piece of the cross and pig head of the Butcher will now break off when entering a frenzied state. This is now in line with the damage representation that is currently visible with Scrapbeak.

Audio

With this update we have performed a melee unification and sanity pass. Here is the dev note to give some more context on what this means:

Developer Note:

As part of the ongoing development of Hunt, we have made some improvements to the sounds tied to melee impacts. In this patch, we have adjusted the pre-existing melee sounds to be more consistent and to better represent the amount of damage that is being dealt by the respective weapons.

We have also assigned some sounds that are better fit for certain melee weapons. We have added unique impact sounds for slashing with a knife, stabbing with the pitchfork and heavy melee attack for the Bomblance.

These changes will ultimately give players a better understanding of what melee weapon is being used based on solely on the sound – and of course to make punching, slicing, and stabbing far more satisfying.

Gunplay

  • Consistency pass made to all short-barrel rifle variants:
    • Slightly reduced the damage and range compared to the basic and long-barreled weapons.
  • Increased the poison damage dealt by the Hand Crossbow to Armored and Concertina Armored.
  • Reduced the duration of the Weak Antidote shot 600 seconds (previously 1800 seconds).
  • Reduced the duration of the Antidote shot to 1200 seconds (previously 3600 seconds).

Hunter

  • Banishing the boss will now remove the poison effect from any hunters in your team.
  • Reworked Trait: Vigilant
    • “Nearby traps are highlighted in Dark Sight.” (Unchanged)
    • Significantly improved the visibility and reliability of all visual effects.
    • It is now possible to distinguish between the different types of traps (clearer at closer ranges).
    • Increased the range to 25m (previously 5m).
  • Reworked Trait: Blade Seer
    • “Bolts, arrows, throwing axes, and throwing knives are highlighted in Dark Sight for better visibility.” (Unchanged)
    • Significantly improved the visibility and reliability of all visual effects.
    • Reduced range to 25m (previously 30m).

Menu

  • Tier 1 Hunters now have unique weapon equip animations in the Lobby and Roster screens.

Meta

Reconnect Support

As mentioned in the Highlights section, we will be introducing a reconnect support feature to Hunt with this update. Previously, disconnecting from the servers usually meant a death sentence for your Hunter (unless you are in trainee mode). Now, you will be able to return to the Bayou and get back into the action right where you left off. Here are some of the finer details you need to be aware of:

  • When disconnected, your hunter will stay where they are and crouch in place to ensure they are as small a target as possible. (Does not apply when down or dead).
  • Teammates will receive a notification to show that you have lost connection. This will allow them to attempt to protect you while you reconnect.
  • If you leave the mission (using the Leave mission button in the pause menu) or if you decline the reconnect prompt in the main menu, you hunter will be lost, and your teammates will be informed of your decision.
  • You will be able to reconnect to the current mission for up to 10 minutes after the initial disconnect. If you fail to reconnect after this time, we will consider that you are gone/won’t be returning to this mission and will kill the hunter.
  • This 10-minute timer will refresh for each disconnect. So, if you have multiple disconnects in a game for any reason, you will have 10 minutes to return after each one.
  • The mission time will not be modified by these disconnects. If you lose your connection, the mission will continue as normal meaning the timer will also continue to count down. As an example, if you disconnect and only have 3 minutes left on the timer to extract, we will not extend the timer to allow extra time to get to the extraction.
    • We have done this in the interest of fairness and to avoid players trying to intentionally cut their connection to gain any kind of an advantage.
  • If your connection drops but the game does not crash or kick you back to the main menu, we will attempt to auto-reconnect you for the next 60 seconds. If after this time the connection has not been restored, you will be sent to the main menu where you can try again through the reconnect prompt.
  • For now, the reconnect feature is only available for Bounty Hunt. Quickplay matches are much faster and don’t carry the same stakes as the Bounty Hunt missions so the chances of reconnecting to a hunter that is still alive (and has a chance to get the wellspring) are a lot slimmer.

Developer Note:

We are very happy to be finally able to bring this feature and offer a way to reconnect to an existing mission. This has been one of the most requested features from the community since we launched in Early Access back in 2018.

We wanted to make sure that a feature like this gave you the ability to complete the mission as if you never even left, but since this is a very large addition to the game, we understand there may be edge cases that we were unable to encounter during out internal playtests. If you encounter any unusual behavior with this feature, please be sure to reach out to the team and provide a detailed description of what so we can reproduce and fix any issues that you do encounter. Remember, details are key to helping us ensure we can find and solve problems quickly so be as detailed as possible.

UI

Leaderboard

  • Leaderboard have been tweaked to reduce number of inactive players.
  • This will only take affect once 1.7 reaches the live servers (test leaderboards are not updated in the same manner.

Developer Note:

Due to these tweaks, it may appear that the leaderboard may have less players or even appear empty for a brief period. The leaderboards have not been wiped, but due to the changes they will need some time to populate with the updated information based on the changes we have made.

Menu changes

  • All standard non-legendary) items have been moved out of the store and into a new tab called “Arsenal”.

Developer Note:

In a previous update, we mentioned that changes to the shop were some of the first steps being made towards providing more clarity. This is another one of those steps. Core gameplay items now have a space of their own, while store items (Bloodbond items, legendary and DLC’s) will now have their own separate section. We hope that this change will help to make these pages a lot clearer, especially for new players. We have many more ideas in store for the future, but we will also keep an eye on the feedback provided by the community for other possible changes.

  • The Store now features a “Featured” page to present you the new Hunter available, the latest discounts and more.
  • Improvements made to the in-game news feed.
