As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of gaming under my belt, I’ve seen my fair share of game updates, some good, some bad, and some downright ugly. The recent transformation of Hunt: Showdown into Hunt: Showdown 1896 falls squarely in the “good” category, with its updated graphics, new maps, and overall improvements to the gameplay experience. However, like a finicky gourmet critic at a Michelin-starred restaurant, I can’t help but notice the less appetizing aspect of this update – the new UI design.
Hunt: Showdown has undergone a significant overhaul not too long ago, rebranding it as Hunt: Showdown 1896, which is essentially the same monster-hunting game but with a new engine, revamped maps, and other improvements. This update, eagerly anticipated by the community, was preceded by two days of the game being taken offline for preparation prior to the transition. Overall, it’s been well-received; however, the new user interface layout has not been met with universal approval, resulting in a wave of negative reviews during an otherwise joyful period for the game.
In reaction to the swift, predominantly unfavorable feedback from recent Steam reviews, developers Crytek have acknowledged and addressed the concerns in a community update, outlining the current state of Hunt: Showdown 1896 in terms of UI design and overall user experience. The design director for Hunt: Showdown 1896, Dennis Schwarz, shared his insights in a video, informing the community that the team is dedicated to further enhancing and revising the user interface. This means that what you see now may not be the final version of the game. The screen displaying gear items that Hunters have equipped is one of the initial areas earmarked for improvement.
According to Schwarz, the arrangement of the gear the player is currently using will undergo a change. In this update, the interface for equipment will let players switch easily between their weapons, tools, supplies, and attributes, all without leaving the Hunter’s screen. Players can now switch between viewing the details of their equipment and an interactive diagram that represents the Hunter’s inventory slots.
Apart from the freshly introduced gear screen, players of Hunt: Showdown 1896 will now find a new “Play” button on the top navigation bar. This addition is intended to make matches start more quickly, a feature that may have been overlooked earlier during the UI overhaul, though it seems appropriate for those who were review-bombing due to its absence. Just like this quick-match button simplifies matchmaking, another option will be provided enabling players to switch their chosen game mode without returning to the home screen each time.
Schwarz didn’t specify the exact release dates for these updates, but he did assure us that these modifications won’t be completed with a single update.
As a long-time gamer myself, I completely understand the frustration of waiting for updates, especially when it comes to our favorite games. However, as someone who has worked on developing video games in the past, I can appreciate the effort and time that goes into refining menus and updating systems. It’s not easy, but it’s essential for creating a seamless and enjoyable gaming experience. I am grateful for the dedicated player base that supports our game, and I am eager to continue improving and growing the community with each new update. So please bear with us as we work tirelessly to make the game even better for all of you.
