R20.0.08
Developer's Note:

This hotfix fixes a few minor issues and bug fixes post R20.07 related to animations and netcode as well as a few minor issues with a new Launcher update. The new Launcher allows for us to more quickly update .pk3s without requiring the user to re-download the file entirely. However due to issues on release, a few various .pk3s were not pushed to release properly. Those files are now available and are listed in the changelog below. For a full list of the changes pushed yesterday, please see the R20.0.07 post.

Again as a reminder, we are actively looking for more programmers and modders to join the team. If you have experience in JKA modding, please feel free to apply in our application forum. If you are interested in learning how to code, model or map for MBII but don't know where to begin, a good starting point is to join our Beta Team, which has more resources, testing environments as well as developers happy to answer questions as you start your journey. Or, simply check out the Guides section of our Wiki! This is a great space to find out how to make new FAs, maps and more. The new mapping guide for MBII has also been finished. We hope to see more maps submitted to MBII in the future. Best of luck and if you have questions, you can bring them up in our Community Contributor category on the MBII Discord.

Additionally, we are looking to form an MBII media team. For those of you who are interested in creating video content for MBII to help promote it, take a look at this post here.

Dear team leader Viserys
I am disgusted by the appalling, obscure decision to remove the core aspect of MB2 of being able to team kill with repulse, push and pull. MB2 is in a dire state — open is dead and legends is now the centre of the mode. I would ask re-adding it as it was what gave the game soul and it is gone.

Sincerely, @yle yatarn.
@YamThePrussian Thoughts?
The decisions of the team leave me in the same state as @FRANK LAMPART - speechless. In my case it's because I am DISGUSTED by the recent patches; in his case because he's dead.
