《獵殺:對決》正在慶祝遊戲發售的第 5 週年,舉辦了一場大促銷的同時還推出了一個新的DLC。Crytek 日前宣佈計劃將遊戲從古舊的 5.6 版本 CryEngine 更新至最新的 5.11 版本。

在接受PC Gamer採訪時,Crytek總經理David Fifield解釋稱:“該遊戲目前在四年前的舊版本CryEngine行運行,因此我們在 2023 年的主要重點之一是更新至最新的 5.11 版 CryEngine。”

也許 5.6 到 5.11 的數字改編看起來並沒有多少,但是遊戲的內容變化卻要大得多。對於已經開發多年有着既定工作流程的遊戲來說,更換引擎是非常罕見的,雖然會帶來很多優勢,但同時必然會產生很多問題。

據 Crytek 稱,理想情況下《獵殺:對決》5.11 版本引擎更新將會爲遊戲的畫面帶來改進,同時也有望帶來遊戲玩法的增強,不過目前 Crytek 並沒有提供任何演示案例。

The Hunt Showdown game is currently celebrating its 5th anniversary with a big sale and a new hunter DLC. While there is much to remember, Crytek is looking to the future and plans to upgrade Hunt from the legacy CryEngine 5.6 to the latest version 5.11. “The game is currently running on an outdated version of CryEngine from four years ago,” explained David Fifield, general manager of Crytek. “Therefore, one of our main messages in 2023 will be to upgrade to the latest version of CryEngine 5.11, which is four years newer.” Upgrading the engine from one decimal to a slightly higher decimal doesn’t seem like a big change, but it’s a much bigger undertaking than updating your phone’s firmware. It’s extremely rare for a game with a long history and a well-established development system to replace the base it sits on – it’s the equivalent of replacing your car’s chassis with a new one that’s theoretically better but can create new problems. Epic brought Fortnite to Unreal Engine 5 last year with impressive results. Ideally, the 5.11 Hunt update will bring improvements to the game’s already outstanding graphics, but also promises to bring gameplay improvements (although Crytek didn’t offer any examples). “It’s going to be a long technical journey, so people shouldn’t expect it anytime soon, but it’s on its way. As we move forward and reach significant milestones, we’ll be talking more and more about what it means to move the game from CryEngine 5.6 to CryEngine 5.11 ‘ Fifield said. While this major update is still a long way off, players can look forward to many more updates, including a tool rework for new players. “We’re working on improving the tutorial and creating a more scripted tutorial mission with more explanation and what we would say is simply better tutorial than existing tutorial missions.” Crytek’s mission to keep Hunt: Showdown technologically relevant suggests that the company will continue to work on a loot-filled dark western in the coming years. We might not have heard about the engine upgrade if, for example, Hunt 2 was in development or Crytek was phasing out support. Which is quite logical for the team, because Fifield talks about the annual growth of the player base of the game. “We’re interested to see how much the population grows, engagement and everything else.” Last month’s Devil’s Moon event, which saw entire cards on fire among other things, showed Crytek’s willingness to tweak the fundamentals of Hunt and keep players on their toes.
