Beyond the splashy additions of characters and lore, Update 1.5 was a triumph of technical refinement. The game’s launch was marred by "janky" physics, hit-detection issues, and severe optimization problems. The 1.5 patch acted as a massive "polish pass." Developers reworked the survivor's ability to grab toys and objectives, smoothing out the controls to ensure that failures felt like player error rather than game incompetence.
