Hi everyone, it is ShiftyCode! It's been a while since the last content update for Mainframe Defenders and it is time to fix that =) I've wanted to thank you all for your support, so I am adding some new type of items to the game: Squad Upgrades. Those are regular items obtained the normal way that cannot be equipped by units. The effects range from simple stats buff, like armor bonus for the entire squad to much more involved stuff like adding heat to enemies per each status effect they have. There is a total of 14 squad upgrades, but you can only equip 4 at a time.
You'll also be able to unlock a new support mech: Shiva. This guy comes pre-equipped with some new support-themed items (there is 5 new in total). With these, you'll be able to pump bonus damage or crit chance to any unit right in the middle of combat.
There is some other content that will be revealed a bit later, so stay tuned!
The 1.2 update will be released sometime in early November. Hope you'll have fun and thanks for the support!
