Hello Martians,
As already teased, we are working on something bigger behind the scenes. As some of you already found out via gaming news websites, we have been working on console ports of Memories of Mars in the past months. The PC version is of course still being worked on and we plan on releasing a new major patch in a couple of weeks. What it will contain, as well as more information about the console ports will be shared in a bigger announcement next week. Please stay tuned!
What we can share today is some information about the big re-balancing that will be part of the next patch:
- We have re-designed the current enemy variations, as well as added new tiers to them.
- Enemy variations will have more unique behaviour and a clear distribution in the world to fit more with the expected difficulty level of each region.
- Enemy tiers are now fully colour-coded:
- Tutorial/Earliest game: White
- Early game: Yellow
- Mid Game: Green and Purple
- Late game: Red and Blue
- Hardcore late game: Red/Yellow with warning labels.
- All player and enemy weapon damage has been re-balanced. Tier 3 weapons now do definitely more damage than Tier 2 and Tier 1.
- You will be able to gain more rare resources, like Silicon, from some enemies.
- We also re-balanced parts of the crafting chain and many loot tables.
The patch will of course contain many more changes, bug fixes and tweaks. More about that in the upcoming announcement!
