Looks good. Except for...

The chat UI can no longer be opened while the UI is toggled off.

WHAT????? WE'LL NEVER GET LIVE EVENT POSTS WITH TEXT IN THEM NOW!

Edit: Oh, nevermind. It changed. Now enter doesn't open it but / does. I just hope Rarebit knows.

**Sphairo**

Concealment Countermeasure Tools now correctly deactivate disguises.

Waaaaay!!!

Yeah, I've actually just finished re-opening that issue and requesting that the old Enter key functionality be restored. What QA actually wanted fixed was the "[X]" button on the chat panel not working while the rest of the UI is off.

You get the ability pills from the org constructs, just as I suspected.

If I understand that first item in changes, that means Archives shouldn't glitch as much anymore. Fantastic.

Elite commando quest ftw.

**MetaLogic**

Increased the difficulty of Headless NPCs at levels above 10.

How difficult will the headless be, hope not too difficult....

Looking good, I can't wait 'til tommorow. SMILEY<img src=

Big thumbs up on these three in particular:

Concealment Countermeasure Tools now correctly deactivate disguises.

You can now interlock someone who is in midair if:

You are in range
You will be in range of where they land

Player should no longer have the combat state applied to them from being hit by an attack after being defeated in Interlock combat.

No more Effects of Combat and no more Bunny hoppers.

Chemuel

Fixed some gang members who were spawning in the ground in Richland.

You will be missed, Amputee Furies Fanatic.

**Kybutra**

Look'n like a kick butt update, hopefully I will find time to play.

**Bayamos**

Hm. I liked bunny hopping. And MA is going to be even godlier now with Serene Calm.

But overall, a LOT of very good fixes/changes.

However... "Inherent accuracies for special moves in operative discipline trees have been adjusted."... I hope that doesn't mean a Spy nerf.

Would end up being a bit of a drag if those melee pills have to be farmed everytime you want to use them. Oh well, they better be worth the time to fight against the lvl 70 sim.
Probably end up being used like Silver Bullets (1 time per click).

I guess our devs are able to fix things afterall.

* Desperate Speed, Hyper Sprint, and Hyper Speed now increase sneak and invis movement speeds.
* The Movement Speed upgrade for Escape and Evasion is now Sneak Movement Speed instead.

As a Sniper, I like the sound of this :)

Also I'm glad to see a lot of our long-standing problems will be obliterated by this patch. Excellent work guys =D
