Hotfix Update 0.123.04

Greetings dinosaur hunters!

In this hotfix we address player feedback regarding spawn locations, controller inputs, and difficulty settings. Thank you for the valuable feedback - it helps us refine the experience.

New difficulty – Easy

We’ve introduced a new Easy difficulty option for players who prefer a more relaxed hunting experience.

Easy Difficulty

• No bonus to Trophy & Contract Rewards
• -10% damage taken from dinosaur attacks
• No item loss on death

Difficulty Rebalance

We’ve adjusted Normal and Hard to better separate the risk–reward levels.

Normal Difficulty

• Trophy & Contract Rewards increased from +0% → +20%
• Normal damage from dinosaur attacks
• Now lose some items on death (instead of more severe loss)

Hard Difficulty

• Trophy & Contract Rewards increased from +50% → +60%
• +100% Damage from dinosaur attacks
• Lose more items on death
• Non-vital hits deal less damage
• Reduced map information

Spawn Point Improvements

• Nearly tripled the number of player spawn locations on Tenebris
• Added additional spawn locations to Moreau

These changes should significantly reduce excessive walking after unlucky respawns.

Controller Improvements

• Blocked controller stick inputs when secondary controls are disabled
• Increased controller dead zone size when secondary controls are active, but controller is not in use

These changes improve input clarity and prevent unintended movement.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed an issue where footprints did not display correctly in multiplayer
• Fixes for missing translations

Thank you for reading and we look forward to hearing you thoughts.
