Our Save Game Policy and Updates
First, since you're going to be seeing a lot of updates around here, we want to share our saved game policy up front so everyone understands our commitment to your games. No saved game will ever be invalidated by an update. You never have to restart if you don't want to. All new content and features will be added immediately to all saved games (with the reasonable exception of New Game options). This is a studio commitment that we have made and kept for many years and games. We stand by it. So do not stress about the deluge of updates that is coming your way - heist on my good heisters.
New Program Icons + Selling Programs
With Update #10, we've added a set of new Program icons to ensure that all of the different Utility and Hybrid-Utility Programs can stand out in your HUD separate from each other. That new icon smell - lovely.
In addition, since you might not want every program you've ever had, we've added the ability to sell them from your inventory. Of course, they have to be uninstalled from a cyberdeck first. Any Contact who sells programs of any type will be interested in buying your used programs at a discount.
Bodybag Reach and Mix & Match
With Update #12, we've improved the Vanguard's Bodybag Talent to have a 12m starting projection range to hide a corpse, up from the small 3m. This will hopefully help the Vanguard be more competitive in the corpse hiding meta.
In addition, we've resolved an old issue that effected the game's display if both Vanguard's Bodybag and Hacker's Faked Vitals were used on the same corpse. This now displays a clearer message and no longer leaves a message making it look like you've made a mistake.
NanoFab Warning for Intrinsic Effects
We have added a new warning to the NanoFab crafting screen as you assemble your Blueprint recipes and pick your cube counts. This message checks your Mod Blueprints to see if you quality for rolling an Intrinsic effect which requires that you have a Weapon Mod Blueprint (like a Scope) in the Mod Blueprints.
If you do not have a Weapon Mod Blueprint here, then you do not qualify for an Intrinsic effect and any Gold Cubes poured into the craft are a waste.
We are have a few more improvements to make to this message set, but hopefully this will help new crafters!
Lootbox Objective (6/8 etc) Fixed
Sometimes, the objective that would count how many lootboxes you had emptied would get behind. It usually happened near the end of your looting, like 6/8 or 7/8. What a popular F10, you heisters!
We are extremely glad to have fixed the timing and caching issue that was behind this one and to put this major source of F10s to rest! Fixed!
Preempt into Crates No More
With the previous update, it was possible that your Cyberswords Preempt attack against a nearby enemy might land you inside a crate, wall or or worse. We've resolved this with a proper check of nearby navigation to ensure that you always land in a location that will let you move no your next turn.
High Street - Give me Days!
With the Syndicate Debts job HIGH STREET that you might encounter, we've increased its very short timeline by 2-3 days, almost doubling its window to complete. This will give you a few more options on how to sequence it against other priorities like HAVEN SMOKEOUT.
Dealmaker Fixed
Thanks to everyone posting F10s about Dealmaker running off the screen! While you could still train the Talent with keyboard or controller, it didn't look great. We've made an initial fix here to ensure that it doesn't go off the bottom of the screen but plan to come back and clean up the text to be more ... readable.
Trait Updates
We've upgraded Zasha's Backstory Trait to provide more Melee Accuracy and the HP bonuses for Endurance Trained across all 4 levels.
