Spam! lulz
Anyway patch notes..yeah nothing too exciting but we knew that from discussions before.
I like the double buffs on the event shirts and stuff..more reason to where the Verdigris now.
"A new option has been added to the Options window on the Game tab. The new option is Scripted Bullet Time Camera. This option controls whether or not your camera goes through the scripted bullet time behavior when a bullet time animation plays or stays where you have placed it (distance or position relative to the player's model.)"
Sounds pretty neat.
Should be a good little patch...looking forward to the cinematic.!

Fixed exile animations!!! I've been waiting forever! Thank you! Already have the BT camera disabled in my useropts, but its a nice addition. I like the sound of the changes to the viral fx, as well as sitting. Doubling the levelscaling rewards is great. But those archive missions... I can't wait to get my Suit! The katana looks pretty neat too, but I'm going to wait on that and the zion/merv rewards untill the interlock fix.

Not much on the addition side (but sounds like story should be good), but some nice animation fixes so far, as well as some other things.
I'm definitely looking forward to the hotfix for this, hopefully it all gets through okay. I'm especially hoping the ending move where the guy spins like a top by himself has been fixed, cuz I see that a lot.

- Mission archive chapter reward FX items now have a System chat panel activation message.
...
Why? The last thing we need is more potential for System spam. I want pointless messages removed, like for /mimeelbow.
Anyway, everything else looks groovy. Nothing particularly noteworthy, though I'm looking forward to using the improved Interlock options once the bullet time's fixed. Bah, and you fix the annoying viral deflection shield just as I stop using hacker/coder trees.

Looking forward to this patch 
Some of the more meaningful changes:
- Find Weakness no longer stacks with Upgrade Master.
- Escape Moves now use Withdraw Tactics and fail while enraged.
- Sitting effect now penalizes all defense types.
- Fixed many Exiles who were missing combat animations, including lupines, blood-drinkers, Gargoyle, succubi, and Zero One / One Zero robots.
- Fixed skeletal distortion at the shoulders and hips that occurred on females, and to a lesser degree on small males and large males, during many weapon combat animations.
- Pulling a jumping player into interlock with an ability will no longer prevent them from using their own abilities
- Ability interlock accuracy bonuses are now shown. These are the base values added to a player's total and are not reflected in the player's bonus panel. These values are influenced.
These are all changes that the community has discussed and asked for, it's great to see them happening!

I'm interested in seeing this. Is this supposed to be like in the first combat system?
