  • Damage indicators no longer display when you are pounced by a raptor.
  • Fixed a client crash related to the round scoreboard.
  • Added an option in the Video Options menu to allow for expensive water rendering. Enable this if you want to see water reflections in all their glory!
  • Spiffy new buttons and tweaks to the UI, especially the team and class selection menu.

If you want the Styracosaur to select the top player for the round set sv_styracosaur_selection to “1”. The new default for the official servers will be “1” which means it will pick the top player for the round on the Axis team.
