Here is the next update for the game. Check out the full change log below!
*Please note that these changes are not in any particular order.*
[h2]BETA Update 1.73.0 Changelog:[/h2]
[code]
[b]Bug Fixes:[/b]
[list]
[*]FIXED a soundtrack in the wrong list (Map instead of battle)
[*]FIXED some item classifications being incorrect
[*]FIXED a long standing issue where using the equip screen WHILE IN COMBAT would cause lag when moving the mouse cursor over a equip slot that currently had equipment equipped on it (This was terribly annoying and I could not find the cause for the longest time - this fix also improves the overall reliability and performance of the entire mouse system in general in relation to selectable windows)
[*]FIXED some typos
[*]FIXED some text formatting inconsistencies
[/list]
[b]Changes & Additions:[/b]
[list]
[*]Added "Buried Below" side quest (This one is a small side quest, but I thought it was an interesting one - It's relatively hidden, so keep your eyes peeled!)
[*]Added a new Steam achiement
[*]A few tweaks to loot spawning
[*]Added a new special main menu badge for people who purchase the Founder Pack DLC (Prophet, your freelancer contact makes a special appearance on your main menu and personally thanks you for being a founder!)
[*]Optimized some ongoing processes
[*]Added some new dialogue for the main storyline in a few places to provide hints and suggestions
[*]Expanded some dialogues with unique NPCs with more lore
[*]Updated some interactions with the "Shady Dealings" side quest
[*]Updated some quest journal entires to be more specific and helpful
[*]Streetlight color is now greenish instead of just plain yellow/orange
[*]Raised the maximum of spent attribute/feature points on a single attribute/feature by 1 (Now 13 instead of just 12 - Community request)
[*]Added Adjustment Delay new strain status (Works just like aug rejection, but with -1% mettle regen instead of -1% health regen)
[*]Added Hypervigilant new strain status (Works just like paranoia, but with -5% confusion resistance instead of -5% max mettle)
[*]Updated handling of all strain based systems to account for the new strain statuses added
[*]Weather shifts now tint the screen slightly for a few seconds to look like the weather is changing the lighting while making the adjustments to the values (Looks smoother than previously)
[*]Added some more detail to some item icon art
[*]Added more detail to some interior areas that felt a little empty
[*]Added a handful of new TV barks
[*]Added a subtle camera scroll effect when hiring Salty to bring you to and from Greywater
[*]Added some new sign sprites
[*]Updated some exterior areas with more variation to look more unique
[*]A LOT of other minor tweaks and adjustments
