RSI Modification Pills
Dungeon NPCs (except for the NPCs in the boss area of the bottom floor) and the bosses themselves now have a chance of dropping pills that permanently alter a component of your character's RSI when used. These pills can also be traded or sold. Different pill types can be found in different dungeons:
- Mars Industrial Storage: Hair Color A (1-10, natural)
- Casinos: Hair Style (1-19 female, 1-18 male)
- Old Hammerville High: Hair Color B (11-20, natural)
- Old Talbot Building: Hair Color C (21-32, artificial)
- Abandoned Subway: Tattoos (1-
- Rawlins Corner: Facial Color (1-
- Ole Miller Projects: Facial Style (1-12 female, 1-13 male)
- Orchid Public Bath: Skin Tone A (1-
- White Lotus Hotel: Skin Tone B (9-16)
- South Vauxton Apartments: Head A (1-10)
- Hampton Green Hotel: Head B (11-20 female, 11-19 male)
- Creston Heights Museum: Body Type (1-3)
You see, everyone? Be patient, and the bug fixes will come. ^-^
Seraph is No Longer a Weakling
The Seraph NPC is now a three-chevron rather than a one-chevron.
What? Was he a weakling before?
Dying on a bench/chair no longer breaks the bench/chair.
Excellant!

Now that's a patch!
Heh, figures... they make the final machine reputation mission a bit better, right *after* I hit maximum rep. Still, I can now claim to be (one of) the last operative to have his "presence no longer have a presence".
Cool stuff. Looking forward to this.
I can't wait!
I look forward to the spy fixes. Not only will I still own, it'll be in style!! CHEEAA!!!

Awesome. I'm really looking forward to the RSI pills.
I'm so happy that they finnally made the disguises put you in spy style. I don't know how many times I've tried to use one of the non interlock knife moves that require stealth, only to have it not work cause I wasn't in spy style. Also having find weakness work like it's supposed to is great!!!!!!!
Oh and typing while coding... Without a work around...
Yee Haw!!!!!
Although I'd still like to be able to tell what buffs are on my items in the compile tool 
Great patch though, can't wait for it to go live.
I cant wait to see new patch and wonder what the new archive item is lol great work

I'm so looking forward to this. Maybe we can get some really good downtown PvP once the lag issue is resolved. Please no delay in this one!!

Everything's looks good in the patch. there is one thing that I would like to see added though and its been on my wish list for a long time and that is some kind of fix for the double click. for exsample: when I invite someone to a team to run some missions and my character is the captain of my crew sometimes the person i'm doing the mission with gets in front of me when I try to open a door and by accident they get a invite to my crew. I get upset because I have to ask them to leave my crew and that kind of mean but there is a reason for not recruiting. or for another exsample: i'm about to log for the awhile and if I pvp solo I sometimes double click on a helper instead od clicking on target and I end up inviteing them to team when I don't want to be on a team. this post might belong in dev roundtable but I thought it belonged here instead.
My suggestion to fix this would be to have a screen pop up asking if im sure I want to invite someone to a team or if im sure I want to invite someone to my crew.

Yeah, that would be a big help there. They should implement something like that.
Can't wait!
The countdown begins!
Per the announcement, the Cinematic is going to be over 2 1/2 minutes!! It hasn't been that way in FOREVER. I wonder what's in store!
1. Fix that downtown lag and I'll love you forever. Oh wait, we already love Walrus. Just y'know. Do what you can so I can mission with street gangs that matter again, thanks.
2. With the heavy weight of the new cinematic, does that portend an actual cinematic again ... or just a really long storyboard sequence? I miss my cinematics y'know

Can't say I've loved a patch like this one in a long time 
The one detail I like about the RSI pills is this... "They can be sold or traded."
Sounds like I'm gonna be gettin' some decent info this month
Edit : Walrus , again, as in one of the previous patches, the patch notes do not show up.

And cinematic wont load
I'm having the same problem.
Stuff aint loaded to the right servers yet - just like last time. Hopefully the team'll fix it when they actually get in the office. ^^
Oh I hope so cause I WANNA SEE THAT CINEMATIC!
Will there be a way to remove all tattoos from your RSI? I hate the ones on my character.

Apparently, according to a faction member, the MKT 'nerf' isn't as bad as some people were claiming it was going to be. In fact I don't believe he noticed much difference....
Long time no comment.
It appears that the MKT fix you guys included in this patch did not take. I have a sampling complete with timing which proves this.
Additionally, Spies are still able to chain attacks (read:spam). It is not connection based since I get about 128k (not bad at all except downtown) connectivity and my hard drive isnt paging (to load maps) nor is my CPU raised (effects and the like). Have we tested this on the test server or deployed it to Recursion? (I am pretty you guys have, I worked with you on the CR 2.0 project, very good work).
Walrus, thanks as always. Been jacked out awhile (I have a business to run too), but was great to be jacked back in after so long).
Hopefully you guys can address the nerf you were hoping for or clearly explain the fix (you fixed us hackers pretty good (me likes the balance).

It is really nice to feel like I have a reason to go to the hideouts now
Update 50 is great, looking forward to that film. Yet in the next update can you have it so we can decompile the RSI pills. Save us time having to search for the ones we need, there are over 100 pills to pick from.
I see you fixed the system message for the timers for the prison mastery/mentality devices, as well as the fly in amber. However, I can no longer equip these items by clicking them in my hotbar, can you please make it so I can.
I think dual pistol dash might be broken, I couldn't get it to work against any of the Creston dungeon npcs.
.

Either let us Decompile RSI pills or please increase the drop rate for them. It's entirely tedious and random right now.
Nay to decom - rare already said the point is to encourage hideout use and player economy.
Drop rates i can agree with. hehe.
Oh and as a random piece of 50 feedback, apparently red eye sucks.
Edit: Nothing to see here ¬.¬
<Not sure why, but your link was taking me to edit this post. Removed the link for safety.>
I love it so far. Been farming RSI pills just for the heck of getting surprised what I actually farmed. It's a tough job to get my original looks back though, but at least I have something to do. Good stuff.
One thing though. I can chat with the Code Analyzer open, that works fine. But I can't chat with the Code Compiler open. I've sent a bug report. I know I can compile in the loading area, but I don't get two purity dots if I do so.
nice patch but something Id like to see added for rsi pills is the ability to either revert back to your old look by a special mission (like stat hack) or for it to tell me what face, hair etc... Ive got so that I can try new looks but if I dont like them Ive just got to farm the pills I need to go back without wondering which pills I need.

Ive got so that I can try new looks but if I dont like them Ive just got to farm the pills I need to go back without wondering which pills I need.I doubt the server saves the looks of the character you originally created. Each pill is a variable that we are changing now, we're replacing (overwriting files) rather than making a new character (making new files).
Hmm... dual pistol point blank is teh not working.
