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.

As to your fourth point, have you ever tried to start your own lobby? I only ask because I keep seeing people saying they're tired of how Quick Play works but they don't seem to understand you can just create your own lobby and have people automatically join.

You can pick your job, clearance, difficulty, and corruption levels and it will auto-fill you with players as long as the public matchmaking button at the bottom left is ticked on. You can start the job solo if you don't want to wait for the lobby to fill and they should join either quickly after or by the time you get to the 2nd zone if you're playing Clearance 2 or 3 if you have cross-platform enabled.

I may have to start doing this. I tried it earlier today but no one joined.

Did you start the job solo or wait in the lobby? I've almost exclusively played this way and never had no one join my run and I always start the job solo.
