On certain resolutions in full-screen there are still issues with buttons not being clickable in the menu (they are clickable but you have to move the mouse to the left of them in order for the button to highlight and be clickable) This isn't a game bug but rather an engine bug, we are still waiting on the fix, if this happens to you please try a different resolution and if that doesn't help try window mode.
Note, this update can only be played with other players on the same version
PREDATOR MODE - bug fix release
This fixes an issue where you might end up with either 2 Sharks or no Sharks under certain network conditions

- Predator Mode - Killing the Shark and then picking up Health or Throwing Flash grenade just before switching to Shark could cause you to have a Weapon instead of the Shark jaws

if you don't immediately get the update try restart Steam.
