[img=http://forced2.com/images/Forced2_Update_A31.png][/img] Champions, We’ve been working on a repeatable loop of the game for a while, and we finally have a real rogue-like mode for you to try out. After completing the Path to Recognition you will unlock the Path to Glory, in which you can actually lose and have to start over, so plan your choices well! We’ve also included a new input system in this update. This will make it possible to change your keyboard layout and to use most controllers with the game too :)

Features

• Path To Honor (Rogue mode): This is the main/expert mode of the game, intended for those who have played through Path to Recognition for initial familiarity and unlocks. These runs are faster and more rewarding (particularly once we add card unlocks). You commit to a full run with the same champion/deck and see how far you can make it before you can no longer win enough to keep up with the demands of the fickle audience. Hint: Stay ahead of the red bar.
• Major consumable rework. We are experimenting with changes to these cards: Consumer, Engineer, Mirror Match, The Real Deal, HoloBanisher, Hypnotize, Combat Healing Potion, Bomb Drone, Chaotic Illumination, Brofist Blink, Taunt, Pocket Shield, Boots of Speed, Scroll of Raining Daggers.
• Cards unlocked: Boots of Speed, Hypnotize, Combat Healing Potion, Pocket Shield
• Replaced Apep's unique ability. He now summons living shields.
• Input system
  • Basic controller support implemented - do tell us which controllers are having issues so we can take a look
  • You can now change the layout of your buttons in the Input Setup menu of the settings

Balance

• Dailies increase more in difficulty from battle to battle.
• Bosses no longer drop gold when defeated.
• Increased gold droprate in dailies.
• Spin to Win now gives +0.75 sec per kill, down from 1 sec.
• The Captain's rockets (when he takes off) are now easier to dodge.
• Several boss cards added or changed.
• Some boss cards and special rules have been disabled in the Path to Recognition and can only be see seen in Dailies and Path to Honor.
• Special Rules (formerly 'modifiers')
  • Short Battles now gives double mana per arena (2,4,6,8) and is rated accordingly easier.
  • Chain reaction now reduces your damage by 40% (down from 50%) and enemies explode for 15 damage (down from 25).
  • Blood Magic is no longer a chamber boss rule.
  • Backfire (take damage from your overkills) removed.
  • Stayin' Alive reworked: Take 10 damage every 3 sec, gain 1 health each time you hit an enemy. No longer a chamber boss rule.
  • Charged Draws now rated easier and you start with 4 Pocket Shields instead of 6.
• Campaign
  • Path to Recognition made slightly easier - particularly in later chambers.
  • Rebalanced fame rewards as well as boon/boss requirements.
  • Gold now makes up a smaller part of your total fame income.
  • When you die, you now get up to 50% of the full completion bonus, depending on how far you got.
  • It is now possible to get battles with no special rules - particularly the early parts of Path to Recognition should be a lot simpler than before. Path to Honor supports 1-5 special rules on battles.

Quality of life

• Ability 3 is now on R by default rather than Q.
• Boss cards now stay visible after being played.
• Legendary enemies (Gax & co.) now have a minimum spawning distance from the player.
• Snake Curse renamed to Companion Curse.

Fixes

• Fixed Infused Strikes and Infused Blocking to not only last the round they were played.
• Stormy now leaves targets if they are converted to your side.
• Fixed a bug where Themed Deck: Surprise! could spawn alongside other Themed Deck rules.
• Deadline should no longer move across water or outer walls.
• Laser tanks should now still have their laser when resurrected by abilities.
• Boss abilities now update their text when their cooldown is changed.
• Fixed a bug where you would see the portrait of another champion in the victory screen.
• Fixed various issues with the Soul Break special rule and decreases of max health.
• Volcanic Strike sound will no longer continue playing if you were interrupted while trying to cast the ability.

May you die gloriously and to great applause!
