Matchmaking Improvements
At the end of a Casual match, players are automatically formed into a new match with the same players and teams
Players get to vote on which map the new match will take place on
There are 3 maps to vote on, chosen based on the maps everyone in the match had selected when they began searching for a match. The current map is always the first option.
This replaces the Rematch system
Players can now set their maximum acceptable ping by clicking the new gear icon in the top right of the Casual and Competitive matchmaking lobby screens and choosing "Ping Settings"
New autobalance system to help with balancing teams when players leave a match. The system will ask players to volunteer to switch teams.
Automatically enabled for all Casual match servers
Players who switch will be able to earn bonus XP as a reward
Community servers can enable this new feature by using "mp_autoteambalance 2"
