Hello Investigators, Minor patch v1.04.2 is here. In this update, we have implemented massive under-the-hood reworks to our gunplay mechanics and introduced several highly requested combat features to improve the overall flow of battle.
【Core System Reworks】
⚙️ Shooting Logic: Completely reworked the underlying logic for the shooting module and various firearms.
⚙️ Recoil Overhaul: Reworked the underlying algorithms and visual representation of weapon recoil.
⚙️ Animation Logic: Reworked holstering and drawing animations and their corresponding triggered events.
【Handling & Feel Adjustments】
🎯 Gunplay Feel: Adjusted and improved the shooting feel for specific weapons (e.g., AWM sniper rifle).
🎯 Holster/Draw Fluidity: Smoothed out the handling and transition speed when drawing and holstering weapons.
🎯 Aiming Transition: Optimized the transition feel and responsiveness when Aiming Down Sights (ADS).
【New Combat Mechanics】
🔫 Hip-fire / Quick Fire: Added a new hip-fire function. While holding a weapon, clicking the Left Mouse Button (LMB) will now automatically raise the weapon, aim, and fire.
👊 Quick Melee Combo: While unarmed (weapon holstered), clicking LMB will now automatically trigger a fluid melee combo attack.
👁️ ADS Mode Optimization: Aiming Down Sights now supports both input types. Whether you "Click/Toggle" or "Hold" the Right Mouse Button (RMB), you will enter ADS mode. Clicking RMB while aiming will immediately cancel the stance.
【New Content】
🧨 New Anomaly: New Year Firecracker
Effect: When equipped, any Critical Hit Rate exceeding 100% will be converted into Critical Damage (Every 1% excess Crit Rate grants +2% Crit Damage).
Drop Source: Obtainable from the Limited-Time Dungeon \[Garden Dream].
【Optimizations & Fixes】
Various minor optimizations have been applied. For example, we fixed an issue where Investigator levels above 7 Stars would cause excessive/spammy floating text to pop up upon hitting enemies. Please check in-game for more details.
【Developer Note: Regarding First-Person Aiming】 Additionally, to ensure the best possible shooting feel and fluid third-person operability, we have temporarily disabled the First-Person Aiming feature. We understand this may cause inconvenience for players who prefer a first-person shooting experience, and we apologize for this. If we receive enough feedback and requests from the community, we will definitely add an option to toggle First-Person Aiming back into the settings menu in a future update.
Please restart your Steam client to trigger the update.
【Estimated Update Size: 5.3 GB】 Note: This is a highly compressed code update. The total disk space required for the game will remain unchanged after installation.
Thank you for your continued support and love. More updates are coming in the future. Best Regards!
