  • When a player is banned, a “Report Feedback” notification is sent to all players who sent in eligible reports for Match Throwing/Griefing

General

  • Similar to the new shot controls in Custom Training, ball controls in Free Play now display at all times in the upper left corner
  • Changed pop-ups throughout the game to default to "no" when involving Blueprints, Credits, Drops, or Tournament Credits
