Christmas Update Beta 3 - Patch notes
[h2]Killsquad Xmas Beta update 0.15.2.5[/h2]
If all goes well, this is our third and final Beta before our Christmas update. Expect the public update to drop late this week/early next week. This Beta rebalances the Colosseum and does general bug fixing on issues reported by the community.
[h3]General[/h3]
· We have implemented a fixed vector difficulty on both the Recruit and the Spec Ops. Colosseum. This implements a CORE-style progression on Colosseums. We want to revisit the Colosseum after Christmas (to do procedural waves, re-think some gameplay rules, etc.) but for the time being we feel it's more fun to play in a static vector than a dynamic one (thanks for the discussions Bum, tehgreg, Dism, DeahTroy & Hissatsu!)
· Added visual feedback on Kosmo's upgrade, "Emergency Shield", to display an icon near the mini-map.
· Updated the scroll in the Quests menu to have a higher sensitivity.
· Updated the description of Zero's skill, "Wave Trap", where it didn't mention that would release two waves.
· Updated the previously fixed bug of the Quest where you have to complete the Colosseum Contract in less than 26 minutes and updated the description from "Veteran" to "Spec Ops."
· Fixed the bug where the reward pop up would not appear in some Veteran Quests.
· Fixed the bug where Zero's upgrade, "Force Lightning" would not shoot in some situations the direction you were aiming with a controller (Thank you Paul for your reports!).
· Fixed the bug where scrolling in a Quest description would scroll the background menu.
· Fixed the bug where some Quests appear with the checkbox marked without completing its objectives.
· Fixed the bug where bought skins from Halloween would still appear in the Shop.
· Fixed the bug where players could equip weapons and gears from other Heroes.
· Fixed the bug where the message "You are below the recommended Vector" didn't update properly when switching Heroes / equipments.
· Fixed the bug where the "Consortium" and "Unseen" factions could display the wrong level.
· Fixed the bug where players could remove the blurred background in the "Skills" tab.

· Fixed the bug where weapons and gears from the range of Vectors 5 - 10, could display in some occasions stats from 70+ ones.
