Patch 18.15 - Reality Shift Difficulty Increase
Hi all,
Reason why I'm making this new post so soon after last patch is because this is it's own separate changes to experiment if it should stay or revert back to 18.1. This patch is primarily focused towards increasing the difficulty of Reality Shift, and also in turn a feature that is in Most Wanted too.
[h2]Difficulty Increase[/h2]
After extensively playing the mode, I realised that the difficulty was not that high and you could practically always be back at max health within seconds of shooting a couple of police ships. Therefore, I have made it so you have to shoot 3 ships to recover one segment of health. This makes it much more crucial to focus on enemy ships before shooting through the deities. This will also apply to Most Wanted but obviously, this patch is for testing and if it gets negative feedback, it will be reverted to 18.1 after a couple of days. Another thing to note is the Volcanic Residual has a 2% increased range, and police ships spawn 0.4s faster. The S.E.S Brute also now spawns at
As a reward, the prize of completing Reality Shift has increased from $17,500 → $27,500
