Hey All,
We have a small update today as we’re coming out of the Weekend. First and foremost we’ve reverted the changes that tied Combat Advantage to AI Difficulty. We’ve updated the AI vs Independent Settings to give a larger bonus to the AI based on the World Threat and increased several income modifiers across difficulties.
We’re in the final week where we can make changes to the Watcher Build. Keep in mind when giving feedback that:
- We can't change text, so all future changes need to be as minimal as possible
- We still have time to fix crashes, make balance changes and other tweaks
- Bigger changes will need to wait until a future update
Once again, thanks for all your feedback and hope you all have a great week!
