1. The lancer has become slightly more powerful.
2. You can now stun and enemy that's running at you with Grenades, just if they had a lancer. (Brilliant)
3. After you've downed someone twice and they get up, when you shoot them for the third time and they go down they just die. I'm guessing this is to stop the point whores, but it can be quite easy to kill someone from afar with the sniper by doing this. *Active reload, he's down..as he gets back up active reload, he's down again.. as he gets back up third active reload, he dies..
4. There's a disconnecting problem which happens quite frequently when one person is laggy and the game stops and the option to quit comes up, it doesn't come out of this screen untill someone quits or the game finally boots someone.
5. It no longer says the Host's name whilst searching for a game, they're just titled 'host'.
Edit: found this on the epic forums. I think my number 1 is faulty, but the rest of mine are correct.
• Fixed aspect ratio distortion when using VGA cable with 4:3 displays at resolutions higher than 640x480
• Fixed voice issue with new players joining Player Match games in progress
• Players can now get the Achievement for "Dish Best Served Cold" when using Troika turret to kill RAAM
• Fixed rare situation where host could loop countdown and never start match
• Fixed rare situation where players could get stuck after chainsawing in multiplayer
• Reduced Grenade Tag melee distance
• Enabled “Strict” NAT check on host to prevent possible connection issues
• Optimized server browser queries to return results more quickly and prevent scroll bars from hiding quality of service icons
• Reduced number of possible revives in Execution to match Warzone
• Removed host name from Ranked match server browser
• Disabled security cameras in Ranked matches
• Ranked matches now require balanced teams (3v3 or 4v4)
• Increased penalty for quitting a Ranked match to -50 points
• Added additional cheat detection code
• Additional housekeeping updates
