Change Log

Patch 8.1.0

• Buff: doubled the Effect duration from 20/25/30 seconds to 40/50/60 seconds.

Patch 8.3.0

• Buff: now already compromises the Generator used to activate it, instead of the one after that.
  • This change was motivated by the previous Activation condition making the Perk awkward to use.

Trivia

• Based on its file name, Machine Learning was originally going to be called Self-Aware, which at the time already existed as the Generic Survivor Perk version of Fixated before the return of CHAPTER 13: Stranger Things.
• Machine Learning has its own unique VFX and SFX for when a Generator is compromised and when a Compromised Generator is completed.
  • These effects can be seen and heard by Survivors, so perceptive opponents can infer that the Perk is in play.
