Hunt: Showdown is a first-person shooter video game developed and published by Crytek in the past years. In the game, the player assumes the role of a bounty hunter who must kill a mythical monster in order to claim the bounty and survive long enough to reach an extraction point. The game receives patches regularly and a while ago a new one showed up. Check out the Hunt Showdown 2.2.1 update patch notes down below.
Hunt Showdown 2.2.1 Update Patch Notes
Gameplay
- Bounty Clash AI update
- Removed Immolator, Hive, Meathead, and Hellhound spawns
- Added Grunt spawns inside compounds
- Reduced overall AI spawn rate
- Reduced the inflicted melee damage when pulling stuck projectiles out of Hunters (from 70 to 14 for upper torso)
- The amount of damage to other body parts differs based on hit location, but is generally even lower
- While much reduced in effectiveness, the Blademancer Trait may still help finish off Hunters that are very low on health
VOIP Improvements
- Team Communications now included when using all / proximity chat
- The muted mic icon no longer auto-hides, providing better clarity about the muted state
- The system now respects the muted state set in the options when joining a game and cycling through voice channels
- A new “Toggle” state has been added to clearly differentiate between continuous and toggle behavior, both in-game and in the menu.
- Fixed an issue where the muted team voice Input option was not being respected in the menu.
- Resolved an issue where the Vivox Push To Talk state was incorrectly set to active on game launch for PC.
- The last toggle state is now stored as an attribute and reinstated on game start.
- Addressed a stalling issue by preventing the Mute All option state from being saved to a file during gameplay input.
Developer Note: We´re excited to launch the new VOIP system, enhancing in-game communication. Your feedback has been essential, and we’re committed to ongoing improvements in future updates. Thanks for being a part of this journey!
