Update 18 Notes

[p]Bosses! Update 18 is here with 13 new boss bonuses, a new escape van driver, voice-overs for Casey and Nasara, and better yet, the all-new Afterburner bank heist! Along with many other additions and fixes that you can find below:[/p][h2]New[/h2][h3]General[/h3]

[p]New bank robbery mission – Afterburner.[/p]
- [p]Burn your way through a high-security vault door with the help of a decomissioned jet engine.[/p]
[p]Roguelite has 13 new elite boss bonuses for high-level players, with 45 levels in total (as a result, the maximal level has been raised from 130 to 175).[/p]
[p]The escape van has a new driver.[/p]
[p]The Imperial Bank is now a possible alternative to the Vertigo Bank in the Hidden Vault plotline in Roguelite.[/p]

[p][/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][h3]Co-op[/h3]

[p]“The Last Verse” urban legend now has a voiceover when selected.[/p]

[h3]Progression system[/h3]

[p]“Citizen Psycho” and “Green Inferno” weapon skins are now available to everyone.[/p]

[h3]Gameplay[/h3]

[p]The character wheel now displays much more information about players and bots, such as their loadout and perks.[/p]
[p]The character wheel is now accessible to clients and lone players (read only).[/p]
[p]The reason for receiving a strike is now clearly stated (e.g. breaking a camera, killing a guard, escaping civilian) and shown without delay to provide immediate feedback.[/p]
[p]The information about collecting key mission items is now displayed in chat, along with reasoning for failed clean execution.[/p]

[h2]Updates[/h2][h3]General[/h3]

[p]Hearing a drill or saw will no longer make all nearby NPCs immediately rush to investigate, instead, they will come gradually at their own pace.[/p]

[h3]Co-op[/h3]

[p]Increased the reward of the “Art of the Heist” mission.[/p]
[p]When attemping to equip an already selected perk, the two perks should now swap places.[/p]
[p]Updated descriptions of older big heist missions in Co-Op.[/p]

[h3]Roguelite[/h3]

[p]Major rebalancing of existing boss bonuses[/p]
- [p]Mainly instead of small, evenly-distributed incremental changes, the first few levels of each bonus should offer a significant boost and a notable change (slowing down towards the final bonus upgrades)[/p]
[p]Unseen boss bonuses are much more likely to appear in the selection (this visibility boost trails off if they are repeatedly not picked).[/p]
- [p]The Entourage screen also clarifies when a bonus becomes available.[/p]
[p]The intel mechanic can now be paired with (mostly) any money-making mission, not only a select few mission types.[/p]
[p]Random events requiring payment can now be temporarily postponed to the map if the player doesn’t have the necessary funds, giving a day to obtain them instead of being forced to decline.[/p]
[p]Added a check to prevent character hire cost skyrocketing for legendary characters with high-quality loadout. Beyond a certain point, the cost won’t scale up as steeply.[/p]
[p]Increased chance for the Cagnali’s Order plotline to trigger (as a side effect, the police will get robots slightly later in the campaign run, as these events are mutually exclusive).[/p]
[p]Unified what options to Decline and postpone (Not now) mean in big heist goals, meaning declining should generally cancel the plotline (freeing the slot for a new plotline), and not continue them in a different way.[/p]
[p]The spy in Gold Cup’s recon mission now uses Shinobi Smoke’s loadout, even for players without the character pack DLC.[/p]
[p]The “Armored Truck” mission variant that can be completed in stealth has a different icon than the more common, combat-only variant.[/p]

[h3]Gameplay[/h3]

[p]Weapons will get automatically holstered (and then unholstered) when using the camera jammer.[/p]
[p]Updated description of the Fire Frenzy perk, because the presented ammo bonus was simplified and could sometimes be slightly off.[/p]
[p]Updated description of the Medic perk to clarify its behavior.[/p]
[p]Changes the voice lines of Lector and Forehand commenting about heavy SWATs.[/p]

[h3]Weapons & Characters[/h3]

[p]The damage of several older weapons got buffed[/p]
- [p]Slate 36, FDE Tactical, Bohema, Urban Striker, Baseball bat, SAM-AF1, Reaper’s Saw, Rufus, Rufus Short and PDW[/p]
[p]Reduced damage to allies from explosives.[/p]
