Performance in this patch seems pretty solid, there have been noticable improvements to lorville, levski and area over the last couple of PTU Patches also Twitch Pacheco was added in, and I’ve recently been played one of her missions.

She is located at Area 18 in the ArcCorp Plaza alleyway between the ArcCorp Tower and Jobwell TDD.

Her missions seem to have some new features, their are mission ships that get lent to you, that you are required to use.

You have to find an items based on a description such as a particular bag of drugs in a big storage house of drugs.

It is an example of much more in depth missions or at least more evolved modules for them, for some reason it reminds me of payday 2 type stealth missions.

You’ll see timers before other players are notified you are doing a mission as well so they have PvP elements and counter missions generated AFTER a certain amount of time.

I am really liking this PTU Patch and I think it’s a strong candidate for a wider PTU build & it turns out it kinda was XD
