Hey heroes!
After it's been a hot minute (1 month!) but we've noticed a number of serious bugs in the game that were introduced in the Ninja DLC. So we're put together a mega update with not only a ton of serious bug fixes, but also a number of huge balance changes to bonus objectives, missions and overall gameplay!
This update should make the overall experience feel much smoother, and less unfairly difficult at times.
