Hello again, everyone! After spending a week or so on the Test Branch, Patch 1.1.1 is finally ready for release!
This patch brings a new Progression Pass, called Concrete Jungle, and it's available to you for no extra cost. The pass contains 50 levels of new cosmetic content, including the first wave of skins for ROV-R the robot dog and some new models for the squeaky toy. I think everyone will find something they like in this pass!
The new Endless Fetch game mode is based on the Fetch mode you've become used to over the past few months. When finishing an Expedition in Endless Fetch, however, you will continue on to another instead of returning to the lobby. Each subsequent Expedition will be harder than the last, and will require more resources and objectives to complete your Quota. From the lobby, you can choose to play Endless Fetch on a single map repeatedly, or have the game select a random map every time you move on to a new Expedition.
To help offset the increased difficulty, you can now collect an overflow of supplies during your Expedition. Any extra supplies collected during an Expedition will carry over to your next Expedition's Quota. How far do you think you can go?
This patch also comes with a lot of optimizations and fixes that will hopefully make the game run better and more consistently. A full list of fixes can be found below.
As always, thank you all for your support and feedback. Be on the lookup for more updates in the near future, including new objectives for the Fetch modes!
