Patch Notes – 1.3.1 Ice Storm

IMPROVEMENTS

Removed full body reveal on scanned enemies in Ranked mode.

Developer Notes: After considering community feedback we came to the conclusion full body scans were providing intel that proved to be overwhelmingly potent in the hands of coordinated teams. We are still keeping them in Quick Play since we believe it can help new players and compensate in modes with less communication. This may evolve in the future.
Players are now punished for leaving a Ranked match before it finishes:
- Players will lose a Medal when they leave a match.
- Players will also get a timed ban from playing Ranked mode, which will increase in length with every consecutive match disconnect.
  
  Developer Notes: We want to ensure that Ranked matches are healthier, and this is our first step in improving the overall quality.

Added fade in/out for seamless transition between categories in the Mission Hub.
Added Operator role and icon tooltip to the Ranked Pre-Match selection screen.
Better performance in Operator Mastery.
Smoother transition when entering the Battle Pass when a new Season starts.

Fixed multiple issues blocking players from completing the Onboarding.
Fixed an issue where players could unintentionally invite other players during the Onboarding.

Fixed an issue where Kapkan's hood clipped into player's line of sight when reloading in ADS.
Fixed an issue where the melee animation could not be interrupted.
