0.5.3 - Big Hunt Bug Fixes

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

A quick patch to address some issues with the Stealth Rating in Big Hunt mode.

  • Completely rewrote the stealth rating system
  • Discovered why so few raptors and compies were spawning in Big Hunt - they now populate more normally and it's a lot more fun.
  • Fixed a bug where shooting guns causing dinos to spawn close to you


So the Stealth System still has the same general idea as it did before, but it's implemented better now. Playing through a few times, my score was always within about 5% of what I predicted would feel fair, so hopefully it works better.

Stealth Kills give you a good boost, proportional to how low your rating is, aka if you're at like 1%, a stealth kill might bump you up to 30%, whereas if you're already at 95%, a stealth kill might only bring you up to 97%, etc. Either way, it's worth it to pick off some raptors without them seeing you to boost your score! Compies affect your rating less than raptors.

Silencers seem to be doing their jobs as well, making it LESS LIKELY to alert dinos, but you will probably still get a terrible rating if you use nothing but guns with silencers in Big Hunt. And it will be pretty much a complete waste of time to use an un-silenced gun in Big Hunt, as your Stealth Rating will be completely tanked.

Anyway let us know what you think!
