@Adler @Stammspieler @Gastspieler

We follow the example of AFI and will enforce the use of the Profiling Branch (using server config param requiredBuild = 152266;).

This shall prevent players from loosing magazines when reloading.

Please perform the simple steps shown in these 2x screenshots to switch your game to Profiling Branch before joining tomorrow.
It will just download 50MB and switch your game in a few seconds after that.
