Star Fox Guard: second update available (Ver. 20160525)

It’s now been over a month since Star Fox Guard was released in Europe, Japan, and North America. It did get an update shortly after launch, but it didn’t change much. But yesterday’s update is significantly meatier, and changes a lot more than the first one. Once again, pretty much all the changes impact game balance, with some of them only impacting user-created squads.

Here’s the official changelog for this new update:

• Rank-Calculation Values Adjusted
  • Rank-calculation values for all maps and all squad sizes have been adjusted.
• Abilities of Robots Deployed in Squads Adjusted.
  • The abilities of the following robots have been adjusted. Please note that these changes only apply to robots deployed in player-created squads. Robots appearing in the main missions and extra missions are not affected.
