0.12.4 Minor Patch Notes

Section 13 - ODS GeeK

Patch Schedule

PDT: 3 PM, October 16, 2023
EDT: 6 PM, October 16, 2023
CEST: 12 AM, October 17, 2023
ICT: 5 AM, October 17, 2023
KST: 7 AM, October 17, 2023

Agents,

We are deploying a minor patch (Ver. 0.12.4) to fix an unexpected bug that affected Agents playing on Rogue Mode Hard difficulty and Squad Mode. As we continue to go through the list of suggestions and issues, we will be deploying hotfixes and patches until we can ensure Agents can all comfortably enjoy the game.

For the change in this patch, please see below.

Changes/Improvements

Fixed the unintended issue where Rogue Mode Hard difficulty & Squad Mode could end up being easier than Rogue Mode Normal difficulty

Some backend parameters, created during development work to diversify difficulty levels, were not fully adjusted on Rogue Hard/Squad Modes. We took a close look and addressed this accordingly.
This has also resulted in these modes giving less Credits but slightly more Data Nugs than we intended

Please note that if you are playing at this time, your game will not be interrupted. You will be prompted to download the patch the next time you open Blackout Protocol. It is possible for teammates to play with mismatched game versions, which could potentially impact gameplay. So please install the update as soon as possible for the best experience.

Patch notes - 0.4.1Q

Try To Fall Asleep - amberdropgames

Good evening players,

Tonight we're releasing a small, new patch for "Try to Fall Asleep"! For more details, here are the patch notes...

Dreaming Segments

In dream 2 and 4, added a new path that leads to the watchtower. The light trail on the 4th dream has also been updated.

2nd Dream

Reduced the shadow scare spawn regularity.

4th Dream

If you're pulling up the notepad while sneaking, you'll do it silently and the monsters won't notice you. This also works for picking radio parts and Michael's pages.
Improved the stability for the notepad's camera transitions.
Improved the collision while running up the tunnel to the surface.

Miscellaneous

Updated texts for the popup in the main menu and for the end game message.

And that's it for this patch! If you find anything else or have some other suggestions/feedback, feel free to share them it in the "General feedback thread".

Good night!
