[h3]New Attachment: Bipod[/h3]
The Bipod can be used for increased aiming accuracy and stability aswell as reduced bullet spread when mounted on some LMG’s and Snipers. The attachment helps by reducing shaking and recoil whilst aiming down the sights, but it includes the disadvantage of reduced mobility.

[h2]Bug Fixes and Improvements[/h2]

• All regions have now been combined into one, and players can choose their server via the Matchmaking Server Selection option. In times where matchmaking is difficult due to differing peak times in different regions, you can play with players on other servers even if ping may be high. We will continue to monitor and work on this feature moving forward.
  
• [Achievements] Fixed an issue with Daily Mission timings occasionally being incorrect.
  
• [UI] The Collection UI size has been adjusted.
  
• [UI] Fixed an issue that caused the Killcam Callsign UI and Game Score UI to overlap.
  
• [UI] Fixed an issue with the chat buttons overlapping when changing the video/language option.
  
• [Matchmaking] Through matchmaking logic improvements, matchmaking aims to match players with opponents with similar levels/server regions as much as possible.
  • When entering a game in progress, level and ping will be considered.
    
  • If no matches are found after waiting a long time, the user may be entered into a game regardless of level or ping differences.
