Is fugitive coming to BGA?
It's already here in Beta. It's part of the Burgle Bros world. Same artwork, but a card game.

This description seems pretty true to the actual game, what's your issue with it?

Is it better to play with Angela's history visible or Hidden?

That is a site-wide bug affecting all tournaments. Although I'm also annoyed by that bug, the BGA devs who would work on fixing it don't develop games, so it is silly to post this in new game threads as if the release of this game prevented that from being fixed.

And @BGA doesn't have any effect, so it's also silly to do that.
To be honest: I doubt if there is anyone working on this bug, while the first reports came 3 months to go and it doesn't look difficult to fix. Just everyone's time /2 when there is a 12 hour timeframe in a tournament.

I assume BGA has just a few technical staff members who do everything, so I assume the same people support game developers, decide which games are ready for a release (or move from Alpha to Beta), do server maintenance and fix bugs. That's why I say: release fewer new games and focus on the basics (server maintanance and fix bugs that affect a lot of games). This should be a high priority bug, because games are terminated early despite everyone still has a positive timer and these terminated games also has impact on ELO-ratings).

I know what the bug is and have upvoted the bug report and posted about it in the thread announcing the new tournaments lobby. In fact, I currently have the most recent post in that thread and it's about this bug.

If they were working on it, it would be a good P.R. move to say so. If they thought we were wrong about how it's supposed to work, they could say that and close the bug report. But as with many BGA things, they seem to have made an internal decision not to prioritize fixing it, but of course they would never admit that to the player base and somehow think silence makes for good P.R.

I can't stand the mechanic of the runner being able to walk through the city where the agent is. If the agent enters the runner's city they are caught but not if the runner enters the agent's city? Strange. You can set up a careful trap and they just stroll past you, yikes
