Repeated intro

Hey guys and gals - we've got more balance tweaks today as well as a highly requested feature we're getting in for your weekend today. And can you believe this is patch #40??? After all the big updates for February (Replays, Observer Mode, Metaverse, and Arena release), we've been very focused on balance. The good news is that we're getting a nearly universal thumbs-up on the changes we've made (with your help!) We have a few more for you today and we'll keep looking at it moving forward - as usual. We're also making quickmatching more fair by supporting cross-spawning. This will prevent players from appearing directly adjacent to one another. Please let us know what you think of this new feature. Along with this change are a mixup in multiplayer quickmatch maps to keep things fresh. As always, thanks for your support! -8Bit
