Dimensional Double Shift Patch 2 Notes
This R&D program isn’t going to run itself, and our bosses demand that we “make the numbers go brrr” (whatever that means), so Conglomni Corp CEO Conrad Glomni is making his in-game debut this holiday season! He will be your guide during our new weekly Team-Building Exercises, giving ALICE a break to do… whatever it is ALICE does. We’re still figuring that part out.
For a limited time, please enjoy our festively decorated Login Area when you enter the game… and be sure to complement ALICE’s new holiday drip. She’s your manager, after all.
Patch 2 Notes:
The Login Area
Introduced voice over to guide players to use hand-tracking if they are holding controllers.
Streamlined the first-time user experience to get new employees into their shifts faster!
The Diner
The Water Bottle now has more unique clumps when put through the Chop-Chop.
We’ve made some visual improvements to iconography and text within the Diner.
NPCs in the Diner no longer sit weirdly in their booths.
The Garage
Reduced the number of Cars required to successfully complete a Shift.
Gil’s Squirt-Gun now squirts reliably and equitably for all players in a Shift, and with improved visuals and usability. Water’s expensive, though, don’t go too wild.
Gas Pump buttons now react appropriately when selected with items in hand.
Car Modules are now randomized better for players, reducing the chance they will encounter duplicate modules within a Shift.
Interacting with Car Modules should be less buggy and more reliable overall.
Vehicles no longer momentarily phase out of existence after their roofs are re-attached.
Got dirty pistons? You can now clean ‘em up with a seismic shake.
A helper Tablet has been added for the Scrapper role to better clarify job expectations from corporate (No excuse now, your review will reflect this).
2-Piston Module with USB stick can now be completed… It wasn’t broken, we were, ummm, testing it.
Refresh Cleaner, when brought from Garage to Diner, no longer appears as Fizz-E Soda when blended or used with the Spray Gun.
End-of-Shift
Nametag Rewards now appear correctly for all players in a Shift.
Trophies no longer occasionally sneak under the table and hide from the player like shy lil’ guys.
Improved game performance when cracking open those Reward Crates (But, like, go easy on them, your commitment to violence is worrisome).
General Networking & Stability Improvements
Improved omniversal teleportation technology - players should no longer occasionally get stuck on a black screen when coworkers disconnect from a Shift.
“Last Call” timer bars now display consistently for all players.
Items respawning at player stations are now more reliably grabbable.
Tightened up Shift Security Protocols to prevent blocked players from rejoining. Your party, your rules.
Extended the timer for players to rejoin after disconnecting or when dropping out of a Shift (Because everyone deserves a coffee break once in a while).
“Return to Huddle” teleporters now only activate when everyone’s hands are in. High Five, or would it be a Low Five?
Miscellaneous Goodness
Increased the randomization of NPC appearances.
Adjusted tooltip text in the ring customization UI to reflect the active hand.
