New:

• “S&M: Private Reserve” added as a new bank robbery variant.

Updates:

• Every weekend is now a Double XP weekend.
• The Response Curve in the controller settings was changed to a slider.

Roguelite

• Turf war tweaks
  • Failing Attack Territory weakens the attacked turf, so it will have fewer soldiers the next time around (ensuring some progress even when failing)
  • Winning Defend Territory strengthens your turf, and you will face fewer attackers on it during subsequent attacks (prevents the same turf from being steamrolled by repeated attacks every day)
  • Slightly increased soldier counts on Hard and Extreme difficulties
• Turf war cost balancing
  • Soldiers cost less to hire when you start the day with fewer soldiers (making it easier to get back on your feet)
  • When sending soldiers, each soldier above the required minimum is slightly cheaper (when you need the extra help, it’s not as costly to send a few more soldiers)
• Difficulty tweaks
  • The aforementioned turf war tweaks have the most impact on the Normal difficulty, and less on Extreme
  • Slightly increased enemy soldier counts on Hard and Extreme difficulty
  • Turf war cost balancing across all difficulties
• A missing character returning after a few days will no longer lose a weapon.
• Changed the configuration of starting characters to make DLC characters slightly more likely to appear.
• Stash categories are now ordered by volatility (more volatile loot can fluctuate significantly in value daily and doesn’t guarantee a stable price trend from day to day).
• Central Rockay City turfs should – on average – be richer and the industrial areas poorer (affecting mostly turf war rewards).
• The police ambush random event can now happen slightly sooner.
• Added ending cutscenes to the “Strong Arm Dollar Dragon” goal.
• Story trade expenses are now marked red if the player doesn’t satisfy the requirements.

Fixes:

• Various problems with glass not behaving correctly when damaged or broken, shot at with slow-moving projectiles, or displayed for clients.
• JIP'd players didn’t see loot bags on other players if the other player was carrying 4 bags.
• Missions selected for Shuffle should now again support all possible variants.
• Prevented turfs neutralized by detectives from being immediately retaken by other gangs before the player sees them neutralized.
• Fixed a case when a gang being eliminated via turf war didn’t trigger the reward.
• The shortened cash value format is now displayed in more places (especially when the long format was causing issues in other languages).
• Cutscenes now have a slight delay at the end before fading out, which should help mainly with those that end with a short sentence and almost no time to read it.
• Explosive ammo of SPX Grenade should now scale its damage with upgrades equally as fast as the shotgun fire mode.
• Baker’s boss stats on the map should no longer incorrectly show 0 as the turf count.
• Revive count in character stats should now correctly factor in bonus class revives from level-ups (mainly promoted Thieves).
• Removed loading tips still mentioning Quickjoin.
• Unified naming of Co-Op across various texts.
• Removed duplicate generic character names in Roguelite, making certain names more common than others.
• The character-specific weapon variants sometimes used an incorrect icon for the default skin.
• Touchdown will now get the correct level of perks in turf wars (level 1 → level 3).
• Cancelled warehouse defense random event should now properly refund all money and loot at risk.
• Turf war soldiers shouldn’t spawn without equipment anymore.
• The Progression screen should now display the correct progress count for perks.
• Fixed several typos, typographical inconsistencies, and various localization mistakes.

Known issues:

• Voice chat for consoles is not available at this time.
