Gameplay:

- Added ‘Find A Game’ to the Play options menu screen. Find A Game allows you to join an online game of a specific type. This update offers Arsenal Arms Race and Classic Competitive game modes. The map cycle groups include:

-- Classic Maps

-- Arms Race Maps

UI

- Death notice order reversed.

Bug Fixes

- Fixed a bug in the keyboard + mouse options screen where changes were resetting.

- Fixed the consecutive loss bonus persisting through halftime. Solves the problem of teams receiving extra cash early in the second round of the match.

- Fixed end match scoreboard saying it was a tie in Arsenal Mode.

- Fixed a bug where penetrating shots were doing full damage after the penetration.

- Fixed a bug where the desired distance required to defuse the bomb wasn’t being used.

- Fix for the HUD alert panel coming up incorrectly.
