INCOMING TRANSMISSION
EXPERIMENTAL BRANCH
Status: 🟢 LIVE — [DO NOT STREAM - PROBABLY MANY BUGS] Agents, M.E.G. Command has authorized the deployment of an experimental branch for field testing. Here's what you need to know before jacking in.
REBUILD REPORT
Nearly every internal system has been torn down and rebuilt from the ground up. The old infrastructure had reached its limits — too many fatal malfunctions, too many compromised extractions. This new foundation is stable, modular, and ready to support everything coming down the pipeline.
LAB STORAGE — DEPLOYED
A new LAB Storage system is live in both Classic and Endless. Deposit tools in your personal locker before heading out — if your squad wipes, your gear stays safe. Locker capacity scales with your agent rank.
ENDLESS PROTOCOL — UPDATED
Endless now lets agents select their starting difficulty tier. Command will equip you with a matching tool loadout before insertion. Go in light, or deploy fully geared — your call.
M.E.G. CHESTS — NOW IN CLASSIC
Supply caches have been authorized for Classic deployments. These don't contain tools — expect cash bundles and occasional relics exchangeable at HQ for cosmetic gear. A reward for agents who go off the beaten path.
THREAT ASSESSMENT — FULLY REWORKED
The entire difficulty system has been rebuilt from scratch for a smoother, longer progression curve. The new scale spans 50 threat levels:
🟢 Levels 1–20 → CLASSIC MODE (Nightmare = Tier 20)
🔴 Levels 21–50 → ENDLESS-ONLY — unclassified territory
For veterans who've maxed out everything: the real challenge starts now.
CONTROLLER SUPPORT — DEPLOYED
Extensive work has gone into full controller support, paving the way for Steam Deck and, later, console deployments. If you play on controller, stress-test everything and report anything that feels off.
SAVE DATA — ADVISORY
Every precaution has been taken to carry your records cleanly into the experimental branch. Still — this is experimental territory.
Anything goes sideways? Don't panic — rollback to stable is always available
In the unlikely event of data loss, Command will make it right with credits, relics, or other bonuses
Report save issues the same way as bugs
You won't be left in the cold for helping us test.
YOUR MISSION
A rewrite this big will produce bugs — that's why we need you. 🐛 BUG REPORTS — The in-field reporting system has been upgraded with far more actionable data. Every report = faster fixes. ⚖️ DIFFICULTY FEEDBACK — With 50 tiers to tune, your calls matter. Too soft? Too brutal? A specific tier broken? Report it.
