Update 16

 * Hoped for February release; however, will be mid-March.

General Updates & Content:
Mag and Ability Crush?
 * Scott received an awesome thread that showed Crush's ability problems. Going back and fixing those!
 * Animation has "three beats," but effects aren't consistent with animation
 * Adding ragdoll to unkilled enemies in Crush

Corpus Riot MOA?
 * Animations! Standing, Walking, Riot Mode!
 * Will launch Update 16!

8 Player Raids:

 * Intentionally designed to be confusing and difficult; you'll need to work together!
 * Level 80 enemies?!
 * We noticed the "DPS Wave" that players would roll through, so we're looking for ways to mix up that formula
 * The Vay Hek "SYMBOL PUZZLE OF DOOM!" Look at the wall screen for the button prompt, and step on the right Platform!
 * But you need to stay on the Platform, otherwise the button is depressed and the puzzle resets!
 * Step off the right button, or stand on the wrong one, and get ZAPPED!
 * Scorpion lassos, Switch Teleporting, dying; all will count as "stepping off" and kill you!
 * Bosses have a chance of appearing during Raids.
 * RUMOR: Spectres can revive you? Needs clarification
 * Mastery Rank Requirement: Not crazy high, but we don't know yet! We're thinking MR 3-4 for the first one, but may be higher!
 * The hardest part isn't the content, but the coordination; solving puzzles as a team
 * Glen and Rebecca are actually playing PART 2 of the Raid! There will be 3 parts!
 * Manic Grineer will be in U16!
 * RAID REWARDS: "Cosmetic Enhancer" - "Burn in" a positive proc into a cosmetic!!!
 * Example Positive Proc: "Get 10 headshots and receive 30 seconds of health regen"
 * You can remove procs or overwrite existing procs from any item you've previously enhanced
 * Top Level Rundown: 8 Player Raid, bring your best gear; high level enemies and puzzles to solve!

Capture the Flag CEPHALON, 2v2

 * Glen and Rebecca vs. Erratic and Fate (from the DE PvP Team!)
 * NEW NPC: Conclave Syndicate Master: "Teshin"
 * Preprocessing error: when DE adds stuff to the game, internal server has to process it first, causing freezes! Won't be in final release
 * PvP specific mods; some will come through end-of-match, some through Conclave Syndicate progression
 * The "Flag" is actually a CEPHALON! They will "chirp" at you if you're carrying it.
 * PROTIP: Knockdown other players and shoot them while they're stunned! Alternatively, equip HANDSPRING to counter the stun and get up!
 * (Fluff quotes) "Git gud scrub" / "Suck it!"
 * You can rank up gear in PvP

'''What can be expected in PvP maps? Can we make our own maps?'''
 * They're customized versions of existing tileset themes
 * Only CTC will launch

Does the PvP team have an ideal for Time-to-kill?
 * Seemed fairly quick, but not Call-of-Duty fast. Somewhere between COD fast and Halo slow.
 * Through PvP testing, we found some PvE bugs to fix!
 * Dynamics of blocking in PvP; it works! Enemy players can block YOUR bullets!

'''(Fluff) Rebecca looks super nice on all streams! Where does she get her hair done and what's her favorite cosmetics?'''
 * "Is there an issue that causes baldness at DE?" -Rebecca. "It's the stress!"
 * Glen harvests the hair of the others!
 * Pantene Pro-V!

Relay Content:
"Some hot action here... Steaming Hot Relay Action!"
 * RELAY ELEVATORS!
 * Updates on the new Library room! Capture targets simulated via hologram
 * Testing Mastery Rank Test replay!
 * Library DANGER ROOM: If you fully scan something in your Codex, you can spawn instances of it in this room!
 * Limitations: can't re-scan spawned enemies, can't spawn certain things like friendly NPCs or bosses. Requires Simulacrum Access Key to use!
 * (Fluff) Working with Kenny Loggins to acquire rights to use DANGER ZONE! Tons of Top Gun reference
 * Help this new Cephalon Simarus build his "Digital Oasis" by finding the quintessential samples of life in the galaxy
 * Unique scanner type to help trap and capture enemies
 * As global Simarus quests are completed, lore will unlock for participating players!
 * For new players, or players that miss out on past Simarus quests, will instead get "Personal Goals" to unlock all previous content, then they can catch up to the current week

'''When will Darvo open his shop? What's the Relay second floor for anyway?'''
 * Second floor will have the Library, Conclave Syndicate

Missions & Quests:
Which mission type is next for an overhaul?
 * Not sure! PvP and Raids are high on the priority right now
 * DE_Hazel spearheads mission reduxes, she's currently working on new quest!
 * DE_Daniel is working on more diverse Exterminate groups
 * Some changes to Scanner mechanics in Excavation

With Spy reward structure, will other missions get multiloot implementation?
 * Yes!

'''In the first 2015 Livestream; adding quests was described as "arduous." What's the progress on making that system better?'''
 * Steve is working on it! (in between sessions of The Order 1886!)

Miscellaneous:
U16 Region Chat?
 * Players can be kicked from Region chat WITHOUT KickBot! COMMUNITY MODERATION POWERS!
 * We need to find volunteers to help moderate the chat! Great power comes great responsibility!
 * We CAN track who is kicked, so any community moderators who abuse their power will be heavily punished

How likely that Supra, Flux Rifle, or energy weapons will switch to another ammo type?
 * We never dreamed of having so many different weapons! We'll take a look at it, but not super high priority

'''Currently 4 introduced weapon types with only one weapon in them. While more stances are coming for them, are there more weapons too?'''
 * Nunchuks are coming soon!
 * But yes, we are also making sure that we flesh out the other weapon types down the line

When do augment ideas become concrete?
 * Up in the air

"Fired Up" mod
 * GLEN looks into "Overheat" mechanic!
 * Looking into making this simpler

DRAGON FRAME WILL BE SHOWN AT TENNOLIVE! Also unveiling a bunch of other stuff!
