  Operational Update #2: Clearance Systems and Combat Enhancements

  Attention Operatives,Command has deployed a significant operational update across the Loop, introducing new systems aimed at improving navigation, survivability, and tactical depth.This release includes the following changes:Clearance Level SystemOperatives can now gain Clearance Levels within a Loop. Higher clearance unlocks Upgrade Cores, which modify weapons and shields to provide new tactical options during a run.More Impactful Combat and TraversalEnhanced visual feedback, including improved hit reactions and enemy explosions, makes combat clearer and more satisfying. Thrust behavior has been refined for better control. Thrust can now destroy certain environmental obstacles, enabling more aggressive movement.Expanded Enemy BehaviourEach hostile species now exhibits distinct movement patterns and attack behaviors, requiring sharper observation and adaptation.SynthHeal DeploymentNew SynthHeal kits have been deployed in Shards and HoloRooms to aid Operatives, restoring a small amount of health when used.Improved UIA new in-game minimap has been deployed to assist with navigation within Shards.New AchievementsAdditional achievements have been added to reflect progress through Clearance Levels and upgrade experimentation.As always, Command encourages Operatives to share feedback, whether on the new Clearance systems, combat changes, or any other aspect of the Loop. Your field data remains essential in refining future deployments.Want to speak to Command directly? Join our Discord channel.

  Hostile Intelligence Update

  Attention Operatives,Command has detected a significant escalation in Hostile defensive behavior within most Erebos Shards.Field reports confirm that in select areas, Hostiles have deployed Heightened Defense Zones: heavily reinforced sections protected by energy shields and sustained by multiple external energy sources. These defenses render core structures temporarily immune to direct damage. Expect intense resistance: these areas seem to be designed to saturate the combat zone with sustained projectile patterns and maintain continuous suppression.The motivation behind these reinforcements remains unclear. Preliminary scans suggest that reinforced zones are more likely to contain valuable equipment, making them high-risk, high-reward engagements for Operatives. Command cannot yet determine whether Hostiles are attempting to deny Operatives access to particularly powerful gear, or whether they are securing these locations for their own research efforts.As always, Operatives are encouraged to report their findings. Your feedback, whether related to these new defensive systems or any other aspect of the Loop, remains critical to improving survivability and restoring stability to Erebos.Want to speak to Command directly?

  Weapon Deployment Update #2: Shotgun

  Attention Operatives,Command continues to improve tactical loadouts within the Loop. Following a successful hacking attempt which caused a controlled shift in Erebos's quantum state, our scientists have successfully deployed a new weapon class designed for close-quarters engagements, the Shotgun.Shotguns have now entered circulation across the stations. They offer:Devastating short-range firepowerWide spread impact, effective against clustered HostilesIntegrated kinetic pushback, pushing enemies away on impact and creating breathing room in close encountersOur scientists estimate that, similar to the Railgun deployment, a portion of conventional weapons have undergone this quantum shift and now manifest as Shotguns.For Operatives eager to test these systems, field reports indicate that Aetherion 1-7865 contains a Shotgun readily accessible near the starting area.As always, we encourage Operatives to share their feedback, whether related to the new weapon deployment or any other aspect of the Loop.Want to speak to Command directly?
