  • Added a vehicle mod store where Rank 3 versions of vehicle mods can be purchased.
  • Removed the modification pack store.




Vehicles
  • Made some backend changes to vehicles to make it easier on our end to create new ones. This shouldn't have any effects on vehicle stats.
  • Fixed a bug where the Nightmare Event and Rocker Glider vehicles were using the rank1 passives for their rank2 versions.
  • Updated the Vehicle Upgrade store to display additional categories of vehicles to make finding them easier.




Crafting Nodes
  • Added a chance to drop previous Drifter/Questionite store action figures.




UNTIL Recognition Store
  • Added a temporary sidekick store to the UNTIL Recognition vendor.




Nemesis Minion Combat Changes
  • Fixed a few bugs where Nemesis Minions were applying npc and player versions of debuffs.
  • Fixed some instances where Nemesis minions weren't using the correct costumes or tagged properly based on their type of costume (like cowboy nemesis being considered robots for combat purposes).
  • Updated various Nemesis and Nemesis Minion attack chains.
  • Fixed a few bugs where Nemesis Minions didn't have their correct selection of attacks.
  • Fixed a bug where Nemesis and Nemesis Minions had a 5ft range on their melee attacks.




UI
  • Many changes have been made to how items display their tooltips to make it more clear what type of item they are and to give the item description more space.
  • Known issue: Many mods (mostly ranks 1-5 enhancements and multi function mods) don't display their mod type in the tooltips. This is unfortunately a side effect of them be multi functional or able to be slotted into secondary gear. This will be addressed in the future.




Misc
  • Marked many of the common mods as "Basic" for reward purposes.
  • Super Magnifier and Shrinker devices are now restricted toggles, preventing more than one of any type from being toggled on at a time. This is addressing a bug where these effects could be stacked.
  • Added leather and metal materials to the fishing hat costume.
  • Fixed a few clipping issues with the cartoon animal heads. Note: They still have a few scaling/clipping issues, and these will be addressed in a future update.
  • Reduced the transfer rate of SCR to UNTIL recognition in the Currency Exchange Vendor down to a 1:1 ratio (previously 1:3).




Lockboxes
Collector Store
  • Added a new stores:
  • Costume Box: Contains costumes that are found in a costume box.
  • Purple Special Items Voucher A: Split from Purple Special Items. Contains power unlocks and emote unlocks.
  • Purple Special Items Voucher B: Split from Purple Special Items. Contains warp items, action figures and becomes.




Collector Lockbox
  • Added a new Vouchers: Purple Costume Box Voucher, Purple Special Items A, Purple Special Items B.
  • Purple Special Voucher will no longer drop.
  • Added an exchange for the old Purple Special Item voucher by the Collector Store. This item can now be exchanged for a Purple Special Items A or Purple Special Items B voucher.
  • Removed Legion and Mercenary Gear (only) drops from this lockbox.
  • Added Mod Pack and Mod Pack + Bold Gear drops to the Lockbox, similar as the recent lockboxes.
  • Added Rare Mod Pack and Rare Mod Pack + Mercenary Gear to the lockbox, similar as the recent lockboxes.




Powers
  • Updated the tooltips on Single Blade abilities to be more descriptive.
  • Changed the strafe leg animation for Guard so it doesn't snap your spine.


Bleed
  • The Bleed effect has been changed to merge its damage into one hit, as opposed to dealing damage individually.
  • This is the same change that Poison went through some time ago and is being done to make the bleed effect less of a strain in large scale fights. This should have no effect on the overall damage Bleed deals over time.

    April Sub Reward

    It's the "Deal with it Meme" sunglasses isn't it? Can't get mad, this is a classic meme which aged great compared to the distasteful hellspawn emote you unleashed in PTS

    Now I'm sad I can't get Subscription to get it, it would fit my Radical character :cold_sweat:
    All temporary sidekicks have been removed from the store. These can now be found in the UNTIL recognition store.
    Really interesting choice
    This allows me to Test-drive sidekicks before buying the permanent version and gives more value to the currency :+1:
    Added Baseball Foxbat costume as a potential drop from swag bags.
    Even sinced i played OFF I always wanted a normal Baseball Bat in order to dress one of my single blade DPS as a Baseball player

    Nemesis Minion Combat Changes
    A welcomed bug fix, always nice to see one of my favorite CO features getting some love :+1:

    Updated the exchange store to only require single items in exchange for tokens. Reduced amount of tokens down to 3 due to this change.

    so as long as you're futzing with the foxbatcon exchange vendor...how about adding in something for exchanging single vintage cred? because having something for 15 cred as the lowest possible option when you have 133 left over from before the currency conversion means there's going to be tokens left over

    and i don't want to just throw the leftovers away - i don't care if the only thing i can buy with one vintage cred is one of those practical joke defense mods; just give me SOMETHING to spend them on, or at least give them a resource value so i can sell them to a vendor​​

    Nice on some nemesis fixes. Hopefully a fix that allows you to add a saved costume when creating a nemesis. I made costumes quite some time ago for potential Nemesis and I can't load them. Very annoying,
  • immaragequitimmaragequit Posts: 11 Arc User
    How was making magnifier and shrinker not stackable a needed change? There's glitches everywhere, people abusing broken features, PVP community getting zero attention, and you're worried about making sure Magnifier and Shrinker aren't stackable? It wasn't even a game-breaking feature, and that's the most important change to make at this time?
  • pwestolemynamepwestolemyname Posts: 978 Arc User
    Very nice! I'm wondering if all the updates to Nem stuff means that it will finally get some attention with added content.

    When i saw the lotus blossom, i thought it would be a cool looking vehicle for a plant themed character, but i wondered what was the link with foxbat. Then i bought one, saw the "LSD" screen change, heard the sound effect, and laughed when i understood what that vehicle was. Excellent joke, thank you.

    Any way we could have the lotus blossom sound effect permanent instead of on move only ? Really love it.

    You CAN load them, just not during the creation process. Create your nemesis, save, and then go back in to edit him/her. Now you can load the saved costume.

    I'm surprised no one has mentioned the bug where Ice type Nemeses make enemies vanish permanently.

    Also I had an issue where I would have nothing but default files....

    But if you save them and you know which file was the costume it will upload the proper one. (Not sure if this is still a thing)
  • darklordkageryuudarklordkageryuu Posts: 6 Arc User
    the whole mag and shrinker restricted toggle is a stupidity that should have never been even implemented , like seriously , throwing the "its a glitch " book at it is your way of killing a use for those items , i would elaborate on why im so pissed about this "ground breaking change" of yours , but i wouldnt expect you devs to understand that
  • mrfreakensteinmrfreakenstein Posts: 40 Arc User
    Another Z-Store Costume set that has identical event bits is the Steampunk Cyborg set, which is mostly if not fully duplicated in the Winter Event store. I'm sure there are more, thats just the one I remember off the top of my head.

    This still doesn't fix the issue of a fair number of event costume bits showing the blue mask(not unlocked) and letting you waste tokens on duplicates of items you had already purchased from the Z-Store or some other place before though. Might that be a future fix?

    Though I appreciate the continuing attention to organizing the game and addressing issues, I'm Very disappointed to see the Super Shrinker and Super Magnifier are no longer stackable. For the creative use those two devices could employ, and for the lack of effect they'd have in-game rewarding/competitive gameplay, I wish a better solution had been found rather than simply restricting both of them and taking away a creative option.

    (Also, not to sound hyperbolic or anything, but a buddy of mine who was starting to run short on reasons to keep playing the game actually just messaged me saying he uninstalled it because of this change, and his preference for playing and interacting with other players while using larger characters by combining the Super Shrinker and Super Magnifier. And then he sent me a YouTube link of a Dalek saying "EXTERMINATE...!" while he deleted the game files. So for a small change, it had a sadly large affect on at least one individual, it seems.)

    I am disheartened by this mag change. I do hope it's brought back to being stack able.

    As someone else said: out of all the issues to fix "you" choose that one?

    I echo these sentiments albeit not with that person's contempt.
  • mutantmaidsmutantmaids Posts: 118 Arc User
    So can we, like, have any sort of dev response on the mag/min feedback, here? Or the stoic flight aura feedback that was given in the last thread and ignored? Something as simple as a "We're looking into it", even if it's just to make us shut up, would still be better than remaining silent and hoping we just forget about it.

    As it is now, the complete lack of response on issues the community brings up is pretty disheartening.

  • i have to wonder what the harm was, though...only thing i can think of off the bat would be performance-based, like if the upscaling caused the game to need to render more polygons or something - but i know that isn't true, because in no game that i've ever played have i ever seen scaling a model increase or decrease the number of polys it has, so something at 10% or 300% of the size it was at when the model was exported would still take the same amount of rendering power as the model at base scale​​

    Super Magnifier and Shrinker devices are now restricted toggles, preventing more than one of any type from being toggled on at a time. This is addressing a bug where these effects could be stacked.


    I asked for a refund of my Zen Points for the 2 devices, i have 17 Super Magnifier and 17 Super Shrinkers all bought with my zen points and my request was denied while most of my friend got theirs refund so i'm gonna point it out there.

    All i asked is for my 30 600 Zen point back. Instead i get a reply in support that i wont be getting 306USD back, i don't give a damn about USD i just want my Zen point back and all this **** because of a "Bug" that as been around for more than 6 years.

    Criptic Studio, your a scam.

    and that aint putting it lightly considering i'm a Lifetimer since Day 1 of this game.
