Hunt: Showdown

Update 2.8.0.3 Now Live

Posted by CRY_IM on



Hunters,

Update 2.8.0.3 is now live. You will find the list of changes and fixes below.


  • Increased the Uppercut base damage with basic, FMJ, and Incendiary Ammo to 126

Dev note: With this change, the Uppercut regains some of its previous appeal and moves towards its old power level, especially compared to its new main competitor, the Haymaker. We will continue to balance weapons based on your feedback on the Inventory Slot Rework and expect more changes coming during Road to Hell.


  • Fixed a dedicated server crash
  • Fixed an Xbox crash caused by gamepad disconnect and reconnect
  • Fixed the continued fire of the Maxim M1895 after extraction
  • Partially fixed the delays for traits that involve using Dark Sight, including Blast Sense.
    • The delays have improved, but we are still working on a definitive fix.
  • Fixed the Uppercut Special Ammo reserve ammo count (from 9 to 12)
