New Player Body: Movement, Hands, Leaning. Updated Slow Motion Jump.
Hey everyone, we are back with another new update! We have successfully completed the Public Beta stage for this one - so thank you so much for all the feedback!
Without further ado, let's jump into the details!
[hr][/hr]
[h2]Updated Player Body[/h2]
[h3]🖐Hand Drift Eliminated[/h3]
We’ve finally eliminated the annoying hand-drifting issue that used to happen whenever players changed movement direction. It might even mess with aiming and shooting.
The new Player Body is much more stable, and we’ve added a few extra tweaks to improve overall hand movement for a smoother experience.
OLD HANDS WITH NOTICABLE MOVEMENT WHEN CHANGING DIRECTION:
NEW STEADY HANDS:
[h3]Leaning and Peeking[/h3]

New Body, New Possibilities! You can now lean over objects and peek around corners in arenas! This not only adds more strategic depth but also makes interactions with objects feel smoother and more intuitive.
[h3]📝How It Works:[/h3]
You can disable Body Leaning in Player Settings.
[h3]Movement Overhaul[/h3]

We've reworked how the player moves through arenas by adding acceleration and even some body drifting, making movements feel heavier and more realistic.
This change brings a more natural flow to navigation, enhancing both immersion and control!
[h2]Slow Motion Jump[/h2]

Reworked slow motion during jumps to make it more cinematic and give you extra time to admire your shots. Long press Jump to rise into the air and put the world into even more slowed-down state, letting you unleash deadly shots and watch enemies fall in full detail.
Added a time limit for this powerful jump — extra slow motion during jump now lasts for 3.5 seconds or until you land.
You can disable Slow Motion Jump in Player Settings.
[h2]Main Menu Access[/h2]

New Main Menu access method with no need to use controller’s Menu Button. Now you can hold the Eject Magazine button a bit longer to open the Main Menu. To close it, just tap Eject Mag again.
[h3]🔹 Why this change?[/h3]
[h3]Other Bugfixes & Improvements[/h3]
[h3]Small Update from March 14th[/h3]
[h2]Public Beta Ended[/h2]
Thank you all for your support! We have been digging into your feedback and we must say they were all really helpful and we really appreciate it! You guys are the best.
And that's all for now folks! We'll see you on the next one, let's end this patch notes with something relatable. 😅

Also HARD BULLET is currently 20% OFF for Steam Spring Sale - let your friends know about it!

[h3]📝How It Works:[/h3]
- Leaning happens naturally as you move in your real-world space.
- Your in-game body adjusts to your head position only after you press the Movement Stick.
You can disable Body Leaning in Player Settings.
