Happy to be here for new era of Hunt 🙏

"Weekly Updates"
That's good news for the entire community i feel, because lately words have been very scarce around the ongoing development on Hunt.

[WujaszekDracul]

Finally some communication and good news

[ojjagg]

3200+ hours in, took a break waiting for the engine update. The news sound great and I really hope Hunt evolves as I love it dearly. Onward partners!

[PsychoghostGaming]

Oh boi. IT'S HAPPENING. A bit later than anticipated, but I'm just glad there is some communication happening (finally). Thanks!

[LHarris]

Updates like this are so important, thank you. We know it’s difficult to commit to dates sometimes but you can’t leave players wondering if anything is ever actually coming for too long or you’ll just lose a bunch of the player base.

[Panophobe]

My man looks like he should *be* a DLC Hunter - in all the right ways!

[REXNOR_TV]

Super excited for the future updates! 😃

[GlassBones]

My bones are ready - even if they are made of glass

On the cheating: You've gotta give us a real option to report cheaters IN GAME. We shouldn't have to go somewhere else. No more hidden profiles. no more coming up on players that have multiple VAC bans. The largely ignored "report" option in game hopefully is getting a rework.

edit: the current in-game report system isn't paid attention to by devs.

I've been on a bit of a Hunt hiatus. Been waiting for this new map and engine upgrade for months and I can't wait to see what they offer up! Weekly updates are also very welcome 🤘

[ghostrunner]

With a lot of people that are very picky because we all want this game to be the best it can it’s important we recognize how cool this game is and appreciate the free updates they have been rolling out as well as sticking to a really cool design philosophy instead of selling out like a lot of other games we see. Hunt isn’t perfect but I think a lot of people miss the Forrest for the trees and I can’t wait for the new engine and map

[darkknight]

I'm on a hunt hiatus until the new engine drops, August doesn't look too far away now

[Downsider]

Everyone, quiet down, the beard is addressing us disciples.

[DragonTamer]

Yeehaw! Can’t wait to see those dev updates, love the transparency!

[SlothWithShades]

Thank you. This is exactly what I was yapping on about when I talked about "open and more frequent communication". Thank you very much

[tommyseptic]

Ive been gaming for around 29, 30 years at this point and Hunt Showdown will always be recognized as one of my favorite games and gaming experiences

[mohnkuchenzentrale]

Sounds like a ton of improvements :)) . Can't wait :))

[yahdo]

Thanks David, thanks Crytek, u da best ❤

Seems like we may be getting a breather from the events then, until August? I've forgotten what it's like to play vanilla Hunt!

[JAFARSN]

Can't wait. This is my ONLY game that I play on daily basis for 2 years already.
