New game plus

[baxterr]

Hi there TreseBrothers and fans!
I just left you a 5-Star rating at Google Play.

I didnt finish the game yet and I apologise if this mechanic is already implemented, but I couldn't find any information about it.

If you finish the game, what happens to your squad?

I would find it very pleasing when you could choose to start over with your squad, while keeping its current members, levels and the current state of the Requisition tree.
Only things who get deleted are level records (f.e. Soldier Aurelius - 8 confirmed kills - Mission Trench Warfare).
These separated kills would still count to the total kills made, the info about the missions would just disappear.

That way it looks like all your squad members had wars and fights before, when you start over.

Alright now to the important stuff.
If you choose New Game + you will have to choose a new difficulty. Of course this would make even a higher difficulty alot easier.
Maybe you can make this new game + even harder by increasing xeno spawn rate, buffing their health/movement.
Or you could let the player decide if he wants the usual "New Game Difficulty" or the "New Game Plus difficulty"
If someone just wants to play for epic xeno slaughtering or just for the lulz then he can choose the former. If he still wants a challenge for his veteran squad, he could choose the latter.
What do you think about this idea?

You get to start over with your squad, keeping it's current members, levels and requisition tree.

As you replay the campaign, your new score replaces your old score, one level at a time.

On the second and third play through you will face increasingly dangerous AI and monster types.

The challenge rating automatically scales up faster on second and third play throughs, based on your selected difficulty.

I love you! How I could even dare that you did not include this already!
Thanks for the fast response.

I didn't know this! Excellent! You should consider adding it to the features list in the store's game description

Is there a level cap for the knights? Or do they level up infinitely?
What's the theoretical level cap then, where knights may gain levels in number, but can't be upgraded any further (all stats maxed, all talents learned).

Level 32 is the maximum Level at this time.
