DOGMAN Patch Notes — November 11, 2020
Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
Hello all. DOGMAN 1.0.3 has been released, and brings some great quality of life improvements. These improvements were based directly off of player feedback. To start, navigation of the parks has been tricky. To help out with this, a compass has been added to the player's HUD. On top of this glaring issue, I have heard the issue, and acted upon the level loading screen times. Before, the level loading screen, which lists off valuable gameplay tips, was only available while the level loaded. Once the loading was complete, the level would open immediately, whether you were done reading the tips or not. This was a direct result of me still learning how to program certain systems in Unreal Engine 4. This issue has been fixed. Upon the level completing loading, an option to "Press Enter To Start" will be shown. The game will not start until the player acts upon this. DOGMAN 1.0.3 has also added a little extra wildlife. You will now see deer roaming the State Park and Appalachian Camp Grounds. Deer frighten easily, and will run from anything they perceive as a threat. The player now has the ability jump. This was disabled due to an bug where the player could "freeze" the DOGMAN AI by jumping. This has been fixed. The flashlight has also received a few visual adjustments. Lastly, certain cabins and ranger towers have maps in them. These maps highlight suspicious areas, so be sure to take note of them. That's all for DOGMAN 1.0.3, I hope you enjoy the update! Please let me know if you have any suggestions or ideas you would like to see added to the game. Stay safe in the forest.
