Attention, mercenaries!
We've installed an update for Hired Ops - the following fixes and improvements will be made:

- Antivirus activity will no longer cause the kick of the player by the anti-cheat.
- Fixed a bug with deleting of the special equipment from the inventory during the match.
- Fixed a bug that caused the second pop-up of the chest opening.
