Dungeons of Sundaria - 2nd Quarter Update

We’re happy to announce (and patch) some excellent improvements to Dungeons of Sundaria. They include improvements and fixes to Combat, Audio, and the player Camera. This patch also includes improvements to the Lady Everleen Boss fight so that it is much more fun and less problematic. As always, thank you for playing! – Warren, Industry Games Combat improvements to make ability selection and melee combat much more responsive and fluid. Input | Handle input buffer overflow and loss due to ability failures, allowing for both hold-to-click or rapid-press play styles

Combat | Modified hit detection to improve the flow of melee combat

Camera Improvements – The player camera has a number of improvements to fix popping and smooth out transitions to make for a better overall experience.

Camera | Adjusted offset of camera collision to prevent camera push back due to running into things in front of player

Camera | Prevent enemy weapons from causing player camera pushback

Camera | Remove camera affecting collision from some projectiles that cause camera pushback

Camera | Add option to slightly increase or decrease the size of the camera collision

Graphics | Remove delay causing just exploded destructible affecting the camera before collision being ignored

Sounds – Fixed bugs and tuned the attenuation so they play correctly in numerous instances throughout the game.

Audio | Lady Everleen and her Handmaidens should once again play foley sounds

VO | Prevent enemy characters outside the current fight area and/or boss arena from responding to VO announcements

Sound | Enemies that are part of boss fights should now correctly announce their VO events to their boss fight counterparts and not the entire dungeon
