Killing Floor: Incursion news & patch notes

Crash Fixes

• Fixed issue where KFI would crash when launched on PCs with an Intel 10th-gen CPU or higher.

• Added descriptive error message when KFI crashes during launch, if the player is using "Steam Link" wireless streaming software. At this time, KFI doesn't support Steam Link. Players are advised to use Meta Horizon Link, Pico Connect, or Virtual Desktop.

Gameplay Fixes

• Across the campaign, we have fixed collision issues where players could fall out of world, get stuck, or skip through missions incorrectly.

• Added a 'reset position' button to the pause menu. This will allow players to reset their position to the last safe location, if they happen to get stuck out of the world. This works in both single-player or co-op campaign play.

• Fixed an issue where Zeds could not attack the life supports constructs in Paris

• Fixed an issue where the NODE drone would flicker its position if the player was using freemove locomotion.

Multiplayer Fixes

• Fixed a softlock issue at the end of Paris where, in a co-op session, one player would often be left behind when a cinematic sequence starts.

Onboarding settings

• Revised initial onboarding flow and settings which appear both for the first launch, and those that appear on subsequent launches.

  • By default, the controller theater comfort setting is now disabled. Players can enable it in the pause menu.

  • Added the option for players to switch between hand-based or head-based free movement in the onboarding.

  • Removed Legacy "Oculus Rift CV1 Forward facing Sensor direction" selection from the onboarding flow. This setting is still available in the pause menu.

VR Headset / Controller support
