Raw Data Update 0.3 Now Live!
Greetings, SyndiK8 operatives!
The data we’ve been collecting from your ventures into Eden Corp have been invaluable. Thanks to your ongoing feedback and reports, we’ve been able to put together our next big update for your mission.
For one, Mission Control has managed to get you access to a completely new area of Eden, and inside you’ll encounter two new enemies standing between you and your mission objective…
Here’s what’s just been implemented in Raw Data:
New Content & Features
New Mission – Nuke Fusion
- Experience an all-new Data Chamber-centric area of Eden Corp. Shoot enemies and dodge death beams as you teleshift across precarious platforms, all radiating from the massive reactor powering Eden’s facilities.
New Enemy – Mega Dynomo
Dynomos aren’t the heaviest bots that Eden manufactures. With your continuous disruptions of their plan, they had to bring out the big guns–literally.
Meet the Mega Dynomo: your encounter with him is certain to be smashing. (Pro tip: if you don’t want to deal with the Mega, make taking out those bots booking it to the reactor your top priority!)
New Enemy – Beamfire Mekomo
- The upgraded model of the Burstfire Mekomo (of which you’ve already destroyed hundreds) fires solid plasma energy beams with far greater accuracy than its spray-and-pray brethren.
New Defense – Plasma Turret
- Turrets: they’ve always got your back. Now you can get an even more powerful version that eschews lasers in favor of plasma-powered directed-energy beams.
New Feature – Rack-Up Screen
- Once you’re back in the showroom after completing a mission, aNg3L will share a Data Link displaying your total uploaded raw data, mission scores, Crypto currency rewards, and available unlocked technologies–a.k.a. everything you need to know.
New Feature – Difficulty System
- Whether you go it alone or team up with a fellow operative, now you can adjust how hard-hitting Eden’s security system handles your infiltration. There’s even a Nightmare mode for those daring (or foolish) enough to face a truly brutal challenge…
New Feature – Leaderboards
- Think you’re the top of SyndiK8’s rankings? Now you can find out for sure with official Raw Data global rankings for individual players! (Note: leaderboards will be periodically cleared throughout Early Access period.)
New Feature – Multiplayer Quickplay
- Team up and jump in. What are you waiting for? Humanity depends on you!
Gameplay Improvements/Balance
- Cloak Tekomo Improvements – The Cloak Tekomo (“Ninja Bot”) has received a software upgrade with new advanced dodging, cloaking, and combo mechanics. If you sense his presence, be sure to protect your turrets.
- Saija Buff – Saija has received various buffs to her stats and abilities across the board that should make her more competitive with Bishop’s damage output.
- Cooldown Audio – Added a sound effect to indicate when ability cooldowns have refreshed.
Fixes
- Mission Return – When you return to the showroom after a mission, the main menu now defaults to the level select screen if you are the game host or are a single player.
- Multiplayer Launch – It is no longer possible to launch a multiplayer game with only one player in the lobby.
- Sky Push – As Bishop, it is no longer possible to get into a state where the player character is continuously pushed upward toward the sky.
- Gun Loss – The user is no longer able to lose access to one of their guns using toggle/hold controls by dropping guns after firing a Fusion Shot.
And as always, we want to hear your ongoing thoughts on how we can better support your mission into Eden Corp! Join us on the Steam discussion forum and engage with developers and fellow SyndiK8 operatives, and be sure to use the official Feedback Form and Bug Reporting Form to submit anything you encounter.
Good luck–we look forward to reviewing your latest reports!
