Known Issues

  • The “change scope magnification level” keybind stopped working with v7.2, which means that the default key “F” no longer works to switch between 1x and 4x zoom on optics that support that. To fix this, go to the Settings > Controls menu in the Infantry section, and rebind the “Cycle scope magnification level” keybind at the very bottom back to “F.”
  • The special characteristics of units are not currently visible on the voting or team selection screens. This refers to information like “this unit gets 2 HABs,” “that unit gets 2 TOWs per FOB,” or “this unit has a shorter respawn timer.” This information will be added to the voting and team selection screens in a future update.
