What officially changed

Arenas is picking up loot pool adjustments, more room variations, matchmaking improvements and bug fixes in this update. Read on for details: - Added 10 new 3x3 room variations - Dynamic Scoring Limit: The win target now changes based on how many players are in the lobby when the match starts. Fewer players means you only need 7 round wins to take the match. A full lobby raises it to 12. This keeps games balanced and moving at the right pace for higher-ranked players with fewer opponents in their MMR bracket LOOT POOL UPDATE ASSAULT RIFLES - Striker Assault Rifle - Havoc Suppressed Assault Rifle - Fury Assault Rifle - Suppressed Assault Rifle SHOTGUNS - Pump Shotgun - Gatekeeper Shotgun - Havoc Shotgun - Hammer Pump Shotgun SUBMACHINE GUNS & PISTOLS - Veiled Precision Submachine Gun - Rapid Fire Submachine Gun - Pistol - Ranger Pistol
