Crytek has released a new Hotfix for Hunt Showdown, which addresses issues caused by update 1.13. The hotfix, now available on PC and consoles, addresses several gameplay issues, ranging from rendering errors to glitches with specific traits and challenges.
Crytek has taken steps to resolve various bugs and glitches reported by the Hunt Showdown community. One of the main focuses of this hotfix has been on the in-game rain effect. The developers have resolved several issues with the rain effect on AMD GPU machines, with post-processing effects turned off and on all maps.
In addition, they have addressed a rare issue causing players to spawn away from their teammates or, worse, with enemy Hunters. Players will also notice improvements with the Instinct and Burn Traits functions and a more consistent damage rate from Incendiary Ammo during heavy rain.
