Killfeed Duration Setting Quality of Life
- A new setting allows players to customize how long killfeed messages remain visible on screen after a killfeed update.

Adjustments

Attachment Filter for Modern Warfare Weapons Quality of Life
- An improved attachment filtering system has been added for Modern Warfare weapons. This enhancement introduces category-specific filters to streamline the attachment selection process, making it easier to navigate large inventories and quickly find the desired attachments.

Death Recap Widget Quality of Life
- The Death Recap system has been expanded in Season 03 Reloaded to provide clearer insight into the conditions that contributed to your death. New indicators include:
  - Affected by Heartbeat Sensor: Indicates the enemy detected your position with the heartbeat sensor equipment.

Double Killstreak Overwrite Notification Quality of Life

  - Previously, the second notification would wait for the first to finish, often resulting in delayed awareness.

- The death skull icon has been adjusted to scale more appropriately with distance. It will now appear larger when close by, making it easier to spot, while taking up less screen space when viewed from afar.

This change builds on an earlier update that added the skull icon to help players identify where they died and recover their loadouts. Based on feedback, we’ve fine-tuned the scaling to reduce visual clutter at long range.
