Co-op Teaser

Changes

• Fixed a bug with autosaves. If you're having issues then you can load your game, make a quicksave (numpad + by default), and then delete everything in your Save folder except for the QuickSave folder. Your Save folder is usually in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Deus Ex\Save or %USERPROFILE%\Documents\Deus Ex\Save
• Rebalanced enviro skill again in order to prevent Master level enviro skill from making you immune to explosives
  • No longer protects from explosive or poison damage
  • Adjusted the curve so that Master level will no longer give you 100% passive damage resistance
• Fixed crash from moving between levels too quickly
• Fixed a crash when dying in HX
• Made the UNATCO door in Liberty Island, and a door in NSFHQ impenetrable (issue #239)
• Fixed a button in mission 3 that was added to allow backtracking and Entrance Randomizer (issue #241)
• More improvements to Death Markers, and also a Twitter bot for them! https://twitter.com/DxRandoActivity
  • The Twitter bot will also post when someone beats the game and which ending they got
  • Make sure you have Online Features set to All Enabled in the New Game menu because it's disabled by default

Co-op Teaser

Changes

• Death Markers - see where other players have died!
  

• New Enemy Shuffling option, defaults to 100%, means enemies will be swapped around on the map, so you might see a different enemy than expected patrolling in front of the Statue of Liberty!

• Experimental options for NanoKey and Datacube locations in the Advanced settings page, enabling them to be swapped with containers too.

• Rebalanced Environmental skill. Level 1 now gives less passive damage resistance, and can sometimes even give you negative passive damage resistance so environmental damage will hurt you even more!

• Improvements to skill/augmentation descriptions. Now randomizer adds to the top of the description instead of the bottom, and some descriptions are a bit neater.
  

• Improved NanoKey randomization for 03_NYC_Airfield (issue #230)

• Fixed a possible crash in mission 14 (issue #224)

• Increased accuracy for human civilians and thugs, but they're still less accurate than military.

Co-op Teaser

Changes

Reorganized Advanced menu into groups (expand for screenshots)

• We've renamed the difficulty choices to more accurately reflect how difficulty this game actually is. Easy is now Normal, Normal is now Hard, Hard is now Extreme, and Extreme is now Impossible. We also slightly increased the skill costs for the new lowest difficulty (Normal).

• Death Screen hints - these are somewhat case sensitive, depending on what level you're in and what settings you're using. Check here for the full list of hints in the code.
  

• Randomized Medbot healing amounts, Repair Bot recharge amounts, and also their cooldowns
  

• Added Remove Aug button to Medbots
  

• Options for limited-use Medbots and Repair Bots (Extreme difficulty sets this to 3, Impossible difficulty sets it to 1)
  

• Augmenation cannisters now show what augs they have in their name
  

• Big buffs to vision enhancement aug and tech goggles. You can now see through walls even with just level 1 or the goggles. They also stack, so you can see farther with more goggles + the aug. Vision level 2 and higher allow you to see more things through walls, such as inventory items, electronic devices, and containers.
  
  

• Goal location randomization added to HX co-op

• Added another goal location for mission 11 (issue #202). Check the amazing new wiki page for Goal Randomization!

• Mission 9 weld points are now tracked in your Goals screen

• Tweaks to goals carrying over across missions

• Reduced The Merchant's prices

• Emergency Le Merchant (totally not the same guy as The Merchant) added to Paris just in case you really need a hazmat suit. You can kill him if you don't have the money, but he will defend himself.

• Fast forwarding infolinks when they stack up

• Removed some obsolete infolinks on Liberty Island

• Fixed an alliance trigger bug in mission 6 (issue #208)

• Minor bugs with passwords (issues #200 and #201)

• Minor fix for mission 14 goal location randomization bug (issue #196)

• Fix for possible large crates blocking your path in mission 9 (issue #193)

HXRandomizer is in early alpha testing and does not support all of the features that the single player randomizer has.

Changes

Most of the changes are focused on improving Ninja JC mode, and the Stick With the Prod modes

• Stick With the Prod has been renamed to Stick With the Prod Pure, I would highly recommend you attempt the Plus mode first because the Pure mode can be extremely difficult

• Both Stick With the Prod modes now start you with the stealth aug and the muscles aug, instead of the speed aug

  • I think the stealth aug suits the gameplay style better than the speed aug did

  • Muscles aug is very helpful when you need to use explosive barrels, since you can't use any explosive weapons

• Ninja JC mode now also allows the dragoon's tooth sword, pepper spray, and all grenades

• Slight nerf for base damage of throwing knives from 20 down to 18

• In Ninja JC mode, the animations for throwing knives and the sword are faster now, and scale even faster with higher low-tech skill

• You can now see the health bars for weld points, this can be useful in mission 9

• Items spawned by the challenge mode are now properly reduced by your difficulty settings (right now this is only biocells and throwing knives from Ninja JC mode)

• The goals menu is now cleared when you get to a new mission

• Weapon and ammo descriptions now show the max ammo you can carry

• Fixed a bug where sometimes the player would become invisible after using a backtracking helicopter

• Movement speed of enemies is now slightly randomized, from 90% to 110% speed
