Back with an update with a couple of quality of life improvements, some fixes, and a new hat!
Added a new hat. Because ignorance should never stand in the way of love!
Fixed issues where you could walk if you stepped into a bear trap when you woke up
Fixed so you can not go to sleep if you are trapped in a beartrap
Added a small delay to ‘extinguish fire’ to reduce the chance of clicking on it by accident
You will wake up when your fatigue is restored
As always, we really appreciate it when you report issues you are having with the game!
Update 1.1.1007
Back with an update fixing an important issue creating problems for streamers, as well as some visual improvements that should make it even more fun taking out your friends.
Fixed issue where more people than allowed could join the lobby, causing the game to crash.
Join public game list now shows the correct amount of players in the game
Blood hit effect when hitting someone with your fist, we also tweaked the effects when getting hit with weapons for a more dramatic effect.
People that are poisoned now have a green particle effect.
The camera stays at the current position when switching between following and freecam in graveyard spectator mode.
As always, we really appreciate it when you report issues you are having with the game!
Proximity Chat
One of the things that have been frequently suggested is proximity chat, so we are very happy that this update has this feature! We decided to implement it as a game option, so those of you who prefer to talk with everyone in the game can still do so.
We have also fixed an issue where players would stay in the graveyard channel, creating issues with in-game chat in the following matches.
As always, we really appreciate your suggestions, feedback and reports on errors.
Push to talk
Push to talk
We are really excited by the way the launch has gone. Really great seeing so many players enjoying themselves in our cabin.
Push to talk is now back after we had to turn it off as it was not working properly. Should be much more stable now. If you should have any issues with it, be sure to let us know!
Fixed issues where players would be able to move while stuck in a beartrap after a vote
Fixed issue where the result of a vote would not work if a dead person was not yet announced
Bots now are better at surviving
Removed number of players in lobby selection. It isn't working as intended, so we will put it back up once it is showing the actual people that are in a game.
Wolves now change target, depending on who is closest. We had a lot of fun while testing out this improvement. Did not expect Wolves.
As always, we really appreciate your suggestions, feedback and reports on errors.
Hotfix
Fixed issue where some private games could not be joined.
Push to mute disabled
Push to talk is not working as intended, so we have disabled it for now. I expect to have an update with it working again soon.
