  • #37 When selecting your weapons or gadgets you see what your squadmates have equipped with the same green dots you see when squadmates ping a capture point.

  • #38 Kobra sight in Portal now seems to actually have the correct 3-line crosshair from BF3 instead of just a red dot.

  • #39 Animations seemed to be fully fixed, also they added some subtle camera movements when sliding and jumping, gun model seems a bit lower in the screen.

  • #40 melee animations are much faster, and appear to be way more reliable and less buggy.

  • #41 As Dozer, selecting your shield shows a very brief 'charge' animation on the shield icon to signify when it is fully deployed. You can also slide with the shield active now.

  • #42 Enemy bots in solo mode will use all vehicles in each slot, even if there’s only one vehicle per slot (if there’s only one attack helicopter available, they’ll use it. If there’s two slots for transport, they’ll use both slots). This does not apply to Friendly bots.

  • #43 dying animations has been improved. Soldiers dies in more natural way. No more dying rag dolls all over the place.

  • #44 when you will get promoted/acquired next level (for example from 43 to 44) classic BF “DunDun Dun DunDunDun” theme SFX will play.

  • #45 Jump slide bunny hoping seems to give you little boost

Great list, gave me a refresher as well! Some of those things were actually fixed quite some time ago on our side but they didn't make it to any patches until today for a variety of reasons that would be probably a bit difficult to explain here! Same difficult to explain reasons why sometimes there are changes that we don't capture in the notes. Happy to see that the changes are positive :)
