Well, it only took 2 years, but here we are. Nice Shot! The Gun Golfing Game finally has new content!
And not just new content. This update hosts a whole slew of improvements to the game! We improved visual fidelity, performance, and loading times. We added some multiplayer features, and a new improvement to the range finder. Now when you rangefind with your gun, you can see the aim point on the minimap. This makes some of the more precision golf much easier to do, and will be a great help on the low-visibility Desolate Dunes. Add on to that a half dozen bug and other miscellaneous fixes, and you've got yourself an update!
So, about the new course. Desolate Dunes is actually pretty welcoming during the day. But this is a Halloween update, so that won't do at all! Desolate Dunes is a very challenging, low-visibility course. Seeing ahead is hard, but your new rangefinder improvement, the minimap, and some smarts will get you far! As the name would imply, there is a lot of elevation change and a whole ton of sand. All of the little challenges add up to Desolate Dunes being an advanced-difficulty course. Make sure you're brushed up on your gun golf skills!
The full patch notes are below:
V1.1.0 patch notes:
New Content

Improvements

- Faster load times.
- Improved performance.
New Features
- Added additional ammo (5 shots total) to each of the guns, with the exception of the special unlockable gun, which is now down to 1 shot. Consider this a gift from Tiger Woods to Dunkey.

- Added a rangefinder indicator. Now, when you are rangefinding with your gun, you can see the aim point on the minimap.
Bug/Misc Fixes:
- Fixed the bug where your ball could get stuck on top of a rock and be unreachable. The game will now consider it out of bounds and reset. (about time)
- Fixed a bug where your camera would be sticky at the minimum or maximum of your vertical look range.
- Fixed a bug that didn't always accurately get what terrain your ball is on.
- Modified wind behavior based on the course. More difficult courses will have a higher chance of difficult wind.
- Increased power of the Fairway Rifle.
- Made minor tweaks to gun powers to bring them more along the lines of expected behavior.
We hope you enjoy your new and improved gun golf, we sure enjoyed making it better.
