Hey everyone,

This patch is covering a lot of gameplay balancing and fixes alongside some more attempts at reducing crashes- thank you again for all of the feedback and bug reports!

• Delay between punch animations should be reduced, allowing for quicker consecutive attacks (I might have an idea for a skill-based system allowing for even faster attacks if the player punches/attacks in the right time window rather than spamming, not sure yet, feel free to let me know your thoughts on this idea!)
  

• FIXED: Melee bat attack sound playing multiple times in one hit
  

• FIXED: Multiple loading screens being added, causing an issue where a loading screen stays active while in-game
  

• FIXED: Diving used to go in the velocity direction rather than input direction
  

• FIXED: J key being binded to Pause
  

• FIXED: Can open pause menu while dying, causing menus to overlap, death screen appears instantly upon death now
  

• FIXED: Replay button causes player to die instantly in Caribbean: Same Day Shipping
  

• FIXED: Accuracy not resetting when Restarting Mission
  

• FIXED: Steam achievement progress not resetting when returning to main menu
  

• FIXED: Secrets not updating in a run properly, requiring the player to replay the mission to propogate, causes challenge to not update (mostly a problem in Caribbean: Shipping) \[should be fixed]
  

• FIXED: Weapons dropped by enemies after an execution sometimes fall under the playspace
  

• FIXED: Counterattack not working with godmode modifier on knife enemies
  

• FIXED: You can complete achievements in the Tutorial
  

• Improvements to aiming and firing in 3PP, aiming crosshair on an enemy that comes into frame from behind should work more consistently
  

• Credits screen will no longer play when ending a final chapter in a series
  

• “New” text to make Toronno more apparent on first time startup (players that completed the series will see the New text but there’s nothing new there sadly)
  

• Increased default opacity of Series buttons in the map/level select screen
  

• Increased lunge distance of knife enemy
  

• Explosive barrels now count as environment kills
  

• Increased Endurance damage on enemies when taking damage (allowing for more executions), future tutorial will come explaining how Enemy Endurance works, some tips for current players is that kicking and/or throwing enemies into walls (using the Grapple mechanic) and into other enemies deals endurance damage as well
  

• Increased enemy sight angle radius when enemy dies in another enemy’s vision
  

• Increased enemy sight range for third person (60% more range than top-down), please let me know how this feels and if enemies immediately spot you in certain levels
  

• Increased enemy hearing range from 2400 to 3000
  

• More attempts at reducing crashes
  

Known issues

• Enemies strafing over dead bodies very quickly, should have a fix for this in the next patch

• Secrets still not properly propagating to the player

• Enemies not attacking after a certain period of gameplay

More patches to come, thanks again for all of the patience and support!
