NEW ROGUE: JUKE
Bio
Juke is the woman responsible for the creation of the world’s first true Artificial Intelligence. A brilliant scientist and engineer with multiple Ph.D.’s, Juke worked for Furmi.62, but joined Rogue Company in search of answers after her life's work was destroyed at Furmi.62's SCION facility by the Jackal Agent, Umbra.
Designer Notes on Gameplay Experience
Juke is a brilliant new rogue that brings with her tons of cutting-edge technology to change the way you can maneuver and set up around the map as a defender. The Juke Boots offer a way to reach heights that were before unreachable! Your Laser Defense Drones allow you to quickly entrench yourself in a new position, while the Reflector introduces a fun new way to send your opponents cascading to their demise!
Ability and Passive
- Ability: Laser Defense Drone The Laser Defense Drone is a thrown deployable that, upon making contact with a surface, will attach and be seeking out enemies that come within sight and range. Once an enemy is in range, the drone will target and fire at rogues with an advanced laser that will deal tick damage over time. Enemy rogues will need to either destroy the drone or exit its effective range. Juke is able to charge up to and deploy two drones at a time.
- Passive: Juke Boots Juke Boots are a modifier to her dodge roll. With 3 charges(that can recharge), Juke is able to quickly maneuver in the same directions as the normal dodge roll but with a reduced cooldown. Additionally, she can use her boots mid-air to evade and make positioning plays not possible by other rogues. If she is out of charges, she will dodge roll normally until her boots are recharged.

SUPPLY DROPS
We’re adding a system in Rogue Company called Supply Drops and here’s a TLDR:
- Supply Drops will allow players to unlock in-game items while playing Rogue Company.
- There are two versions of supply drops- Reward Supply Drops and Rogue Supply Drops. You can earn Reward Supply Drops through play, or spend Reputation to unlock Rogue Supply Drops.
- There is also an option to unlock Rogue Supply Drops with Rogue Bucks, but we believe the vast majority of Rogue Supply Drops will be unlocked with Reputation.
- Each Reward Supply Drop will give you one item, and each Rogue Supply Drop will give you two items.
- The Supply Table is visible in-game, you have an equal chance to obtain each item, and you will only unlock items you currently don’t own.
- Supply Drops are completely optional and offer no advantages in-game

DEPOT VISUAL UPDATE
In this update, we are reintroducing Depot, a skirmish map that has undergone a visual overhaul to not only meet our standard for quality but also have a better place in the world of Rogue Company. Depot is one of many training grounds used by Rogue Company for Rogues to hone their skills(or even settle scores with each other) to keep in peak condition. We look forward to your feedback!
PROJECT SAINT
Draft Pick Overhaul
In this update, we aim to improve the overall draft pick experience for our ranked and custom games. This overhaul entails a polished new rogue select experience, cleaner ban experience and unique rogue limitations. In addition, players will no longer re-draft their rogues at half-time. This will have players approach their matches in a more tactical ‘give and take’ mindset in the rogue select phase of the match. We hope you enjoy this update and look forward to your feedback
Ranked Strikeout
To further expand the ranked experience for our players: as an experiment, we are introducing a separate ranked queue for Strikeout. Strikeout has shown to be a very popular game mode and, for a good while, there wasn’t a place that the strikeout diehards could graduate to and have a place in the competitive environment. In this update, please try out the ranked experience for Strikeout, complete with the Draft Pick Rogue Select improvement that we detailed above. Let us know what you think!
BUG FIXES

KNOWN ISSUES

- Kestrel’s drones under the effect of the reflector gadget may reflect at odd angles.
