    I’m surprised they haven’t mentioned what else has been removed, equipment wise. I noticed the other day that the radar jammer is no longer on The Narrows.

    Personally, it was pretty stupid that it would jam BOTH sides, rather than your enemies. Glad it’s gone, but i secretly loved it when I was able to take advantage of it.
