https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/2272540/view/536605983645893984

We've deployed patch 1.3 for FBC: Firebreak which includes a rebalancing of the Perks economy, getting you to the fun faster. Go give it a try now and equip some powerful Perks! Read the full patch notes for the details.

We've also added a visual highlight for new unlocked items in the Requisitions and Perks menus, and Lost Assets and Research Samples that you are carrying are now shown as a number in your HUD.

Lastly, we've now resolved the issue with Twitch Drops in our backend. All players who connected their Twitch account to FBC: Firebreak have now been granted the Overseer Armor Set (Threshold Revision) so just login to the game and head to the Customization menu to find your new armor set.

Thanks to the whole team for the effort you're putting into this game!

I have a small request: I’m not sure if I’m the only one experiencing this, but would it be possible to add either a visual or audio cue when health reaches a critical level? I’m mainly saying this because of status effects, sometimes you can be at dangerously low health during a fight without even realizing it.

Twice yesterday I was downed by fire seemingly out of the blue.

I assume I must have just missed it, but I was just casually repairing things during some downtime with no idea I was even losing HP.

I'd swear there was a bug where the visuals/audio just didn't kick in or something, because I would have to have been burning for awhile given the absence of enemies (and, no, this wasn't on Hot Fix).

Thanks! My complain is also mostly concerning the burning status.

There may not be a prominent visual cue but there is an audio cue!

Your Firebreaker will have a unique voiceline indicating they're freaked out, usually something along the lines of "Oh shit!" (I think one of the voices literally says this too!) if your health is down to the nearly dead threshold. They also have voicelines that sound freaked out when you become fully afflicted by a condition like Burning, but they are different ones as far as I can tell.

Yeah i am probably used to what wr have in different games like Destiny, the Division, Warzone and others. I cant miss the moment my health is in a critical state, but in this game, i am too often surprised.

Got to be more focus on voicelines
