UPDATES

General

• Every weekend is now a Double XP weekend.

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 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 soldier (making it easier to get back on your feet)

Turf war cost balancing across all difficulties

• A missing character returning after a few days will no longer lose a weapon.

• The police ambush random event can now happen slightly sooner.

• 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).
