Patch Notes
Update #86: Hunter or Hunted?
Update #86 brings together a big package of improvements of finer tuned balancing, small AI improvements on certain levels, fixed map bugs and improved dialog. A lot of the changes in this package are very specific and gathered and evaluated from our player-base.
First, we've buffed and rebalanced a number of things on the Templar side. Tactical Point durability bonuses are now slightly higher for their SP cost, we've improved two of the Engineer's Revolvers and ensured fair balance for the Mk18 Dominant.
Much of the AI changes and improvements comes from working directly with players who were finding issues on levels, exploiting AI pathing or seeing the AI doing suboptimal routing. To increase the danger of Narvidian flying units, we've upped their damage moderately and increased the Narv's hunting routines to better seek out your Templars, especially if they scatter. In the New Game+ and New Game++ mods, we've doubled down on defensive turrets to make sure they can still shred your high level armor – those things should never be something you can ignore.
Enjoy the newest updates and balancing tweaks. These will, as always, be most felt on higher difficulties!
