During the End of Round flow it’s now possible to skip all the way to the main menu without leaving automatic matchmaking.
This will be nice.

  @NazT55 Sure will be. There's some decent stuff in here.
  
  I also had a little laugh at the description of the EOD bot changes when repair the sentry turret.

    LOL, even DICE see's Lis nerfs were over the top. Now assist count towards leveling.

@ElliotLH That juicy hind and condor nerf. And tracer can be locked onto stealth heli even in stealth mode.

Some pilot tears are in the way

  @UP_LordPlumber They're pretty fair changes in my opinion. The transports should still do OK but might need to stay on their toes more. The dart still letting you lock on to the stealth heli in stealth makes sense to me too.

  @UP_LordPlumber They still should remove explosives from transports though.

    @cso7777 yes, at least a 20% increase in damage for hind is great.
    
    But yes, I think they should remove splash damage guns on front of the helis.

I must ask, but will removing attachments now and leaving open slots there allow us to actually run faster? What else would be the point of removing an attachment to leave it's slot open?

  @BigShottt I highly doubt there will be any benefit I just think some people are OCD about having all attachment slots full.
