• Bush Fire: Use your flamethrower to burn everyone in a line.

• Fire commander
  
• Ice commander
  
• Love commander
  
• Team power
  
• The collection

• The scoreboard now tracks damage done to the base together with the damage done to turrets.
  
• Opening the shop while having the scoreboard open will now open the shop and close the scoreboard, just as it was before 4.0.
  
• Fixed that sometimes after closing the Steam overlay and pressing enter to chat, it would register as a shift+enter instead, opening all chat instead of team chat.
  
• Fixed that if you moved the mouse very close to the centre of Coco and used her AA, her arms would extend in a different direction than her attack.
  
• There is a new, more streamlined tutorial flow for new players.
  
• Fixed that running on 1280x1024 or using the Screen Adjustment feature would cut off parts of the in-game HUD.
  
• Steam IDs are no longer logged while in character select, fixing that players could figure out who they were going to play against before the match actually started.
  
• Fixed that practice games could be joined via chat, for a short period.
  
• Fixed that banned players wouldn’t get a ‘cancelled’ notification when trying to queue

• Fixed that (some) counters for achievements would not update for some players.
  
• Fixed that the Slowwolf announcer would not be granted to a player that got the “Welcome back!” achievement in a beta.

• Fixed that League 1 didn't exist for some older seasons in the leaderboad history.
  
• Depth issue fix for character icons in menus on Mac.
  
• Fixed that it was possible to get stuck in a state where all buttons in the Play menu are locked after trying to join a custom game of which the last slot was just taken by another player.
  
• Fixed an issue where clicking multiple times on a character profile picture in a lobby would result in an endless growing tooltip.
  
• The tooltip about the items that you can buy now correctly states level 3 instead of level 4 at which you have unlocked all items.

• Optimised all sounds to use less space on disk and in memory and to load a bit quicker.
  
• The “test voice” button in the Armory now correctly plays voice lines of premium skins.
  
• Announcer voices and player-triggered character voices are now better audible.

• Updated Veanko’s Leon, Lonestar, Raelynn, Gnaw, Skree, Clunk and Ayla bots

• Added a new option to AffectAreas to change a player’s team. This can for example be used to make mods where six players are in a single team or where you need to switch team during the mod. It is also possible to play local versus this way if only one of the local players switches team. This is an experimental feature that probably has a lot of issues, use at your own risk. For example, the deathtimers are disabled once this is used and switching to a team that doesn’t have graphics for the current class produces broken graphics (like a neutral team Lonestar). This feature might even be removed in the final release of 4.2 if we deem it too risky for final release.
