Update 1.1.6

Update 1.1.6 delivers a major interface and readability overhaul across DEFLECT.

The Arsenal has been reforged with dedicated spaces for Reapers, permanent upgrades, Cosmetics, and Ascendancy. Each section now offers clearer requirements, live previews, improved inspection tools, and controller-friendly actions.

Cosmetics are easier to browse and safer to use in combat. Trails and Palettes have separate unlock records, custom colors preview instantly, and low-light combinations receive a subtle visibility assist so your Reaper, guard, and returned shots remain readable.

The Deployment screen now gives every mode a stronger identity, displaying its protocol color, mode number, local best, mission details, and run modifiers in a clearer launch console.

Codex, Feats, Highscores, Leaderboards, Patch Notes, Options, How to Play, and the cinematic About transmission have also been updated with a consistent command-deck presentation designed for quick navigation and couch-distance readability.

Patch Notes transmissions now count chronologically, keeping Transmission 01 anchored to the original release while every new update receives the latest number.
