I know the hacks were a bit overpowered and CDPR tried to re-balance them. But using quickhacks is starting to become...impossible at times. I'm on "The Heist" and in the process of escaping. I sneak past many of the guards and taking down a few (non-lethal) without being noticed. I see a guy and think "I'll ping him and mark people so I know where they are at." The instant I ping him, the guy yells "Look out, he's hacking!" This never happened except inside Konpeki Plaza to this point. Reveal Position pops up and I'm given no indication as to who is revealing my position. So...doing recon without being noticed is apparently out the window. That was the entire purpose of Ping for me. Figure out where hostiles are before I go in. Now it seems like that just rings the doorbell so everyone is on alert and searching for me. So...this quickhack has become useless for me.
Before 1.3, ping never alerted hostile NPCs on my playthroughs. It only did this once I installed this update. Can't believe I'm saying it, but I'm actually thinking of rolling back to 1.2.
