1.0 PATCHNOTES

Today, Quasimorph launches into 1.0, which means the default version of the game is finally receiving all the changes we’ve been testing over the past several months.

You can find the full list of changes below.

• Saves from the default branch are not compatible with version 1.0.

• Saves from the Unstable Beta are compatible.

In other words, if you haven’t played the beta, you’ll need to start over.

• Steam Achievements. Using console commands now makes saves invalid for achievements.

• Config overhaul and cleanup of outdated items.

• Map Editor. Custom Map Pack creation.

• In-game Mod Manager. It allows you to set the mod load order, enable and disable mods, and displays map packs collisions.

• Magnum Pact Department. Allows you to exchange low-tier pacts for high-tier pacts. There's a chance to get a pact that doesn't drop from barons.

• Trade Shuttle rework. It now sells any item, but items that are not required are sold at a reduced price. Three trading modes: barter with the ability to specify the type of desired items to purchase, selling items to increase reputation, and cargo transportation from proxy company stations.

• The RealWare storyline with 2 endings.

• AnCom storyline with 2 endings.

• 29 new guns, 2 new composite damage types, 2 deployable covers, 4 gas grenades, 10 Olirna pacts, added pacts previously weren’t done, reworked Tezctlan and Xiomara quest pacts – a total of 142 pacts, 70 of which can only be obtained through rites.

• Updated fire and liquid mechanics, added gases. Try setting fire to puddles of poison - it'll be fun.

• Thrown weapons have been separated from grenades and now have their own item type. They receive bonuses as melee weapons and can break when thrown. This includes not only throwing knives, but also saws, nails, and empty bottles.

• Loaded batteries now affect weapon stats. The damage type is determined by the weapon itself.

• The virtual stage of the Beacon mission has been redesigned.

• Frozen enemies break into ice shards upon death.

• Quasimorphic Data can now reduce the accumulated bane level.

• Locked doors can now be unlocked using the Employee ID.

• Tutorial messages have been added to the rite menu, corporation capture, augments and implants window, when receiving a pact, encountering gas; the trade shuttle message has been updated.

• New random events - enemies with alternative pacts in bramfaturas, messages in space from factions with negative reputation.

• FPS limit setting.

• Loading screen at the start of the game.

• Option to disable the black hole shader for those experiencing performance issues in Pleroma.

• When trying to move into a tile occupied by an ally while using keyboard or controller, allies will now step aside for the player, just like they already do when moving with the mouse.

• Added a hotkey that lets you pan the camera while holding it.

• You can now click on any upgrade to see the required items, not just the next one in the list.

• Sorting rules can now be configured in the Cryochamber and Dismantler tabs.

• Wound names now include the damage types that caused them.

• New settings for enabling in-mission lighting changes and window animations. Enabled by default.

• Fixed an issue with FPS drops in the crafting menu with a large number of recipes.

• All: Hotkeys for switching to the previous and next inventory tabs.

• All: Added a hold delay multiplier - how long you need to hold a key for it to be recognized as more than just a single press.

• Keyboard/Controller: When opening a container or corpse's inventory, the cursor will now appear there, not in the player's inventory.

• Keyboard/Controller: Ability to use an alternative action; you can now close and block doors.

• Keyboard/Controller: Some actions displayed a dash instead of a key.

• Controller: You can throw melee weapons using the firing mode.

• Controller: When activating a vest, tooltips for the items in it are now displayed. When the item is activated, the tooltip closes.

• Controller: Scrolling with the right stick without activating the scrollbar is now available in all windows.

Major update for English, German, Spanish, Japanese, and Chinese localizations.

• Updated weapon stats. Key notable changes include increased flamethrower damage in the attack zone; revised weapon accuracy (slightly decreased on average) and critical damage (slightly decreased overall, but some weapons have increased damage); light weapons have been made lighter; maximum condition has been increased; weapon prices have been adjusted, mostly decreased, but increased for a few particularly powerful ones; damage falloff has been slightly reduced on average.

• Updated effects for addictions, statuses, and wounds. Composite damage types now have their own effects. Stronger wound differentiation for human, quasimorphic, and cybernetic body parts. More realistic wound distribution between body parts. The poisoning status now decreases over time, rather than initially increasing and then decreasing. For example, robots will no longer take damage per turn from wounds, but the penalties will be greater.

• Updated medicine - increased stabilization through bandages, slightly weakened first aid kits, increased the duration of pills.

• The prices and price progression for clone, armor, and weapon upgrades have been updated. For clone upgrades, chips are now the main limiting factor, but they are not needed for the first few levels. The number of items required for upgrades has been reduced; for example, level 100 upgrades now require 450 items instead of 3000. The number of stats granted per upgrade level has been reduced. For weapon and armor upgrades, overall upgrade availability has been increased, but the maximum upgrade cost has been lowered. More different items are now required. At the same time, the number of stats gained per level has been adjusted to account for their usefulness. Different armor pieces have different upgrade steps - a helmet provides less protection than a chest piece but also costs less to upgrade.

• The usages of multi-use items have been normalized. Now, combining two items with a single use will always result in a 2-use item. However, items obtained before the previous patch may have old usage costs and cause stacking issues.

• The Enemy Anatomy perk now also works with explosions created by the player.

• Bonus thrown weapon range now also applies to grenade throwing range.

• The item pool for Robbery missions has been restricted — you will no longer need to steal cheap resources, only valuable barter items.

• The Security Service Magnum upgrade now gives you a squad of allies only on the first floor instead of every floor. After all enemies on a floor are killed, they will move to the elevator and be able to proceed together with the player.

• Player-controlled and mobile allies can now move between floors together with the player.

• If, during the Tezctlan storyline, the player made either the Church of Revelation or the Solar Coven their proxy, then after it is taken away, the player will be able to capture a new proxy.

• Reduced the number of enemies in Descent missions.

• Quasimorphs won’t immediately hunt the clone in bramfatura Descent missions.

• The Ritualism perk now triggers from using any quasimorphic consumables, not just from eating gavvakh.

• If mission completion on clone death or extraction is enabled, the mission no longer fails, but is resolved as if the time has run out. This means that the winning side depends on their Power.

• The way body stats affect weapons have been updated. Critical Chance and Critical Damage for clones and NPCs will now be added to their melee weapons. The corresponding stats for melee weapons have been reduced to maintain the same overall stats. Clone stats now affect throwing weapons.

• The Phase Bomb recipe is now awarded in several storylines - Xiomara, RealWare before the fork, AnCom in both branches, Tezctlan.

• The chance of receiving each item when dismantling has been reduced from 50% to 33%.

• The difficulty difference between missions with different skulls has been increased. The average mission duration has been reduced. Faction power has a slightly lesser effect on mission difficulty.

• Makeshift grenades have been added to the crafting recipes available from the start.

• Quasimorphosis bonuses are now shown as additive multipliers.

• Updated the item chip lists and item upgrade prices to reflect their current technology level.

• Descent missions now have a new Tech Level progression. The progression is no longer linear: the first floor is TL4, the fourth floor is TL8, the seventh floor is TL9, and the tenth floor and below are TL10.

• NPCs for VIP protection and CEO/assistance from proxies have been separated. Elite troops will now once again come to your aid.

• In addition to gunfire, sounds for opening doors and enemy deaths will now also attract attention by default, the pact banes only increase them. The Silencer feature nullifies the gunshot sound for NPCs. The bullet impact sound is now quieter, making it harder to attract enemies with shots. However, you can always use explosive ammo.

• More NPCs can now become traitors - becoming hostile to other NPCs when accidentally hit.

• Updated crafting, disassembly, and amputation recipes for the minigun and laser turrets. You can now obtain the Judge ABC and PV-277 from them, and the chance of obtaining them through amputation has been increased. You can say goodbye to Prism.

• Proxy buffs from Magnum upgrades have been reduced.

• Time acceleration in space has been updated, now it is x1, x25, x100, x250.

• In Escort story missions and the CR - Manifesto server defense mission, you can now evacuate a clone if the VIP is killed or the server is destroyed.

Thank you to everyone who stayed with us throughout Early Access.

To those who played the earliest versions. To those who returned after every update. To those who wrote reviews, reported bugs, argued about balance, created guides, videos, and mods, told their friends about the game, or simply decided to give Quasimorph a chance.

Truly, thank you.

Good hunting, mercenaries.
