General
• New achievement Fighting The War on Christmas - Participate in a successful territory capture on Commissars House
• Improved CPU performance for all players
• Spectators will now respect the server's roaming restrictions if the viewed player is killed
• Fixed occasional crash when changing teams in the role selection menu
• Weapon upgrades that have been unlocked no longer have a lock icon next to them in the profile menu
Countdown
• There is now a 5 second timeout after using a reinforcement wave in countdown. This addresses problems where several waves get used up at once.

Territory
• Fixed the round end screen not displaying if the spawn select menu is open
Server
• Servers that become unranked will now attempt to become ranked again after the map changes. We are still working on fully solving the issue with some servers going unranked, but this will help improve the issue.
