• Changed default T-Rex spawn to 1. This is controlled by a console variable. Server admins, if you want to add more T-Rexs change "sv_trex_spawn_count" to whatever number you want.
  
• No MG42 hints for Trigger or the Stygimoloch.
  
• Slight nerf for the Desmatosuchus (tank dinosaur). Splash damage has a smaller radius now.
  
• Desmatosuchus can no longer shoot through walls.
  
• Desmatosuchus can no longer do splash damage through spawn doors.
  
• Auto-glow for medics (when teammates are hurt) now goes on when the teammate is below 50% health. It was 25% before.
  
• Glow outlines on player's no longer display when players leave PVS. This addressed "ghost" outlines that hung around sometimes.
  
• Eliminated bugs related to the T-Rex spawn which screwed up the camera.
  
• Trigger and the Stygimoloch can no longer toss teammates with their melee attack.
  
• T-Rex's no longer get healed by Area of Effect healthkits.
  
• Slight increase in frequency of pain sounds (so you hear them more often).
  
• PIAT rounds no longer collide with teammates right after they're fired.
  
• Fixed bug where capture message stayed up across level loads.
  
• Raptors can now be shot off of teammates after a pounce. To balance, the raptor does more damage on the initial pounce.
  
• T-Rex bite revamped which should greatly improve the ability to eat downed players.
  
• Overhauled the Medic heal function. Now, the heal function is connected to the medkit itself. Medkits can be thrown out with a left-click. But if you go up to a player and right click a heal effect will be "applied" instantaneously.
  
• Server passwords should work now.
  
• Bolt-action world animations for K98.
  
• Fixed bug where newspaper stayed up for spectating players after a round change.
  
• Fixed some ugly text formatting on various HUD elements.
  
• Fixed MP40 and MP44 rate of fire issues.
  
• Some new audio courtesy of a Dino D-Day community member.
  

• Updated the default "Slinger-style" WASD controls to make the character move relative to the isometric perspective.
  Note: In the previous update, this required using a commandline parameter "-isomovement", which is no longer necessary. To restore the original setting, use the new commandline parameter "-orthomovement".
  
• In-game menus now respond to right-clicking as well as left-clicking.
  
• Added support for resolutions greater than 1920x1080, at which visual issues with the background visuals could occur.
  
• Fixed several issues that were causing the game to crash for some players.
  
• Fixed an issue in Burstone Quarry that could cause players to get locked out of the level's final area.
  
• Fixed an issue in Mt. Zand that could cause players to get locked out of the level's final area.
  
• Fixed an issue in Zulten's Hollow that caused the level's weapon pickup animation not to play.
  
• Fixed an issue in the Bullhead Trial where the text stated that the Gold Prize requirement involved completing the trial having taken less than two hits instead of three.
  
• Fixed an issue causing the opening splash screens to overlap when running the game using the "-nofixedstep" commandline parameter, which unlocks the frame rate.
  
• Fixed a rare issue where weapon slots at the Arsenal could become unselectable.

To set Launch Options in Steam, right-click on Bastion in your game library, select Properties, then select Set Launch Options.

NOTE: Please be advised that these settings are recommended for advanced users and may adversely affect your game experience.

The parameters are:

• -isomovement
  
  Using the default Slinger-style WASD controls, diagonal movements will more closely adhere to the isometric perspective. We would appreciate your feedback about this change via our Steam forum (linked below).
  


• -windowed
  
  Forces the game to start in windowed mode.
  


• -x [value]
  
  Forces the game to a specific X resolution.
  


• -y [value]
  
  Forces the game to a specific Y resolution.
  

Example: to run the game in 1280x720 (720p) resolution: "-windowed -x 1280 -y 720"


• -noborder
  
  Runs the game in windowed mode but with no windows title bar or border. (This may improve compatibility or performance versus full-screen mode in some cases or provide a preferable experience.)
  


• -deadzone [value]
  
  Allows a custom joystick dead zone for players experiencing issues with their gamepads. Value is the fraction at which input should register. Example: "-deadzone 0.4".
  


• -lang [value]
  
  Forces the game to load a specific text language. Available options are "en", "fr", "it", "de", and "es" for English, French, Italian, German, and Spanish, respectively. Example: "-lang de"
  


• -nofixedstep
  
  Turns off fixed time step so that the game no longer dictates the frame rate. (This may improve performance for some users but may also lead to erratic performance in other cases.)
