  • Matchmaking service improvements for Big Team Battle (BTB). Players should find full matches quicker and more consistently.
    Scorpion Tanks and Wraiths will appear more frequently on BTB maps.
  • Fireteam members in BTB matches will have the selected Fireteam Marker color, but may still start the match in different areas of the map.
