    All Nemesis and also Shadow Destroyer in Nemcon will drop a q box for each player.

    XP Plus will have its sound removed.

    Weekly sale change.

    10% chance for an announcement of some kind.

    NOTE: announcements are only accessible after finishing all your lockbox stamp missions

    to save time, 13 more stamp collection missions have been created and will be installed with this patch.

    Patch

    All I needed to hear. :biggrin:

    Does this mean we get our Q Box drops back from Adventure Packs, Comic Series, and NemCon?

    Oh and as a suggestion, think maybe we can add a Questionite Ore reward to each of the missions that signify the end of an arc?

    I have a slight concern. I have just put my password into the launcher and it comes up "Unable to authenticate"......tried a few times, making sure I spelled it right and didn't have caps on with the same result.

    I know that the game is down for maintenance, but I have opened up my launcher, put in my password and patched, in anticipation of the servers coming back on, many times before.

    Should I be worried, or is it something to do with this maintenace? :confused:

    Well, I just tried again and it worked this time...I hope that you have managed to launch too.

    I should have added that I don't use steam or arc....I launch directly from the launcher, as nature intended :wink:

    Ah, sweet. You guys finally fixed that Nemesis minion bug!

    Q-Boxes are fixed for Nemesis and Shadow Destroyer drops too! Great work guys. Sure, this patch only has a couple of fixes, but it's the little things that help.

    By the way, the Pick Up And Throw feature's broken again, and there's still a ton of bugs to the Nemesis system that should be looked at, especially the triggering of events in certain cut-scenes like Prison Break and Bunker Buster.

    I just tried logging in and couldn't get in and the launcher indicates the system down - was it taken back down...?

    We were doing some work on the account server as part of the maintenance. Nothing to worry about!



    ... and we're back online! Thanks for your patience, folks!
