As we continue work on the Wasteland update, we have come to somewhat of a halfway point and decided we wanted to make a minor update in the meantime. There has been a lot of feedback about how damage works, especially about turrets feeling counterintuitive as a weak point, and we agree, which is why we have given them some more damage resistance across the board. This should change how the com…

Thanks to all the co…
