Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodhunt - jaqub.ajmal
Hello Bloodhunt Community!

It is now day 2 of our Early Access program and it is already time to push out a small update. Early Access is an important stage for us, as it allows us to identify issues we couldn’t pick up on locally and improve on the game based on the feedback from you, the community.
This is a small backend update.

Resolved issue

Playing with friends

We have heard from some players that you are running into issues when playing with friends, and even though we had a workaround we feel that making it easy to play with friends is of very high priority for us.
So today we released a backend fix that should resolve the playing with friends issue when you are playing with different localized versions of the game. The update is already live when you are reading this, so please let us know if you feel that things work better now.

Other Identified Issues

For transparency, we also wanted to talk about some of the additional high-priority issues we have identified since the start of the Early Access program.

Support for PlayStation controllers and generally improved gamepad support

We hear you loud and clear that you really want this, so we are making it a priority to improve it as soon as possible.

Performance issues with certain PC specifications

Optimization is something that we will be continuously looking at throughout the life cycle of the game. Performance can vary heavily from PC to PC, not only because of the wide variety of hardware combinations but also due to other software that might be running in the background and other configuration issues on the specific PC.
We currently need your help with identifying what specifications you are using when you are getting performance drops, please make sure that you let us know through our customer support portal which you can find here: https://support.sharkmob.com/
We have also created a Discord channel where you can share your best tips when it comes to performance and where you can compare your specifications to better understand what might be causing the issue on your PC. You are able to join our discord here: discord.gg/bloodhunt

The pacing of the Battle pass

We have heard from players that the Battle pass is progressing too slowly compared to the XP earned. We are looking at our numbers and will be adjusting them to be more fun and rewarding.

Anti-Cheat bugs

We have identified two bugs with our anti-cheat software. The issues are related to the anti-cheat sometimes still running after the game client has exited and a few files still being left after the game has been uninstalled. We are working hard to resolve this and hope to have it fixed as soon as we can.
While we wish that we would not have the need to use anti-cheat software in our game, it is absolutely needed to combat cheating. We assure you that we take your privacy & data concerns very seriously and that the anti-cheat is ONLY used for the purposes of catching and banning hackers and cheaters.
If you see any cheaters and want to report them, please contact our customer support. Videos are also good to have ready for proof. https://support.sharkmob.com/

Server Locations

During Early Access we currently support these regions with servers:
US West + Central: Los Angeles, Chicago, Seattle, San Jose, Dallas and Phoenix.
US East – New York and Washington
Europe – Amsterdam and Frankfurt
Asia – Singapore
OCE - Sydney

In the near future, we are also looking into adding South America.

These locations are not definite, and we will constantly evaluate and optimize performance and ping to be able to best support our active player base.
In general, matchmaking times are directly affected by low player numbers, and in the worst case to even get games going we may need to route players to another region to be able to play.

Key bindings


We currently have a bug with our key binding system which in some cases can cause unintended input assignment.
While we work on a fix, here is a workaround for now:
https://support.sharkmob.com/hc/en-us/articles/4406824553873

Crashes when running DX12 mode

We are aware that some players with certain Nvidia cards are unable to run the game in DX12 mode. While we investigate, here is a workaround to force the game to use DX11 mode instead.
https://support.sharkmob.com/hc/en-us/articles/4406809342737

Lastly, thank you for playing our game and for providing us with a lot of great feedback that we can work with to improve Bloodhunt!

See you at dusk!

Extra:

- Added support for using the backspace key to undo a move.
- Fixed a zoom in/out bug that made the camera flip 180 degrees.
- Fixed issue where a block could fall even though Max did not touch the block.

Please note that there are more features than shown in the video but this video aims to cover the basics.

A shout-out to Dohi64 for a lot of great input about things to improve. This update does not cover everything mentioned but it should be a step in the right direction.

Star Traders: Frontiers - Trese Brothers

With the major release of mod support behind us, we're returning to some regular order here with a roll-up update full of community-driven fixes. In Update #278, we've added even more mission icons, improved the way that Wing Commando's "Behind Enemy Lines" works to truly knock out the single, most powerful weapon, replaced all the Bribe offer text in ship encounters to always be correct and more.

We're getting back to regular order here with more exciting updates to come, so if you're enjoying the pace of new features, content and fixes please tell a friend and leave a review.

For a different flavor of Trese Brothers sci-fi, check out Cyber Knights!
Our next game, Cyber Knights: Flashpoint is under development. Set in a different universe than Star Traders, we think much of what you all love about STF (a lore-rich world, many ways to play, strong independent spirit, lots of RPG depth) is shared within. Learn more about the Cyber Knights setting on its Steam page, or check out this video showing a ton of art and discussing the game design.

More Mission Icons
With the addition of mission icons to help summarize step actions in Update #277, we've been hearing from the community about specific types of actions that weren't fully covered. We've now added icons to help summarize steps including Negotiation (huge!) and the missing variations of Intel missions.

Clearer Bribe Offers
Ship encounter options often include Bribes but the text of those offers has often been misleading about whether or not your are paying to avoid Reputation loss or not. We've cleaned up the text on all Bribe offers to cleanly match the result you'll get if both ships leave.


Behind Enemy Lines
The Wing Commando Talent "Behind Enemy Lines" has been fixed to operate as described in its description. Previously, it was working closer to the Gunner Talent "Disarming Sabotage". Now, Behind Enemy Lines specifically targets the most powerful, functioning weapon on the enemy ship and does it 80% damage -- a guaranteed knock out hit! A couple of Wing Commandos can work efficiently to take down enemy gun's completely if they act fast enough from their striking shuttles.

And More
With an influx of new players coming to check out the game, the Steam forums and Discord have been busy with feedback, suggestions and minor bug posted. We've fixed a bevy of minor issues with Mass and pricing on :ththe latest set of hybrid barracks components, adjusted the failure message in Civil Unrest Rumor to be more clear and fixed a whole heap of typos.

v3.2.3 - 9/8/2021
- Mission descriptions now include missing icons for Negotiation, some additional ship battle types, Conflict Intel missions
- Added hover to Accept/Waypoint buttons in mission offer for clarity
- Fixed Wing Commando's "Behind Enemy Lines" to match description -- guaranteed to disable most powerful enemy weapon
- Fixed all Bribe options for all captain types in ship encounters to be clear when Reputation loss is at risk
- Improved fail message with Civil Unrest Rumor when faction denies access (-10 or less Rep)
- Fixed pricing on Battle Barracks 4, fixed Mass on Shielded Barracks 4
- Fixed Barracks appearing twice in medium slot display
- Fixed Spice Hall description of recruit bonus for Mercenaries Rumor
- Fixed report crashes and typos
