I'm not seeing Pugmod in the launcher, did that get pushed back? Or is it downloaded separately?

EDIT: Mace said on discord it would be released tomorrow, and wouldn't be in the launcher, just in case anyone else is wondering what I was. :p

Sounds interesting. Sad to see tho that fp dmg for sniper (def2 40 fp when block, 80 fp when not blocking and def1 60/120) has not been changed. It bothers me that these fp damages are working no matter the range.
FP drain tweaks are on the table but this was mostly aimed at bug/crash fixing and minor tweaks to gameplay. Decent amount of discussions about what/how to tweak things has been done already so hopefully it won't take too long.
