* Aerial Anomaly victory threshold from 15,000 points to 10,000 points.
* Anomaly swirly visuals got a minor update that makes them a bit fuller.

* Join Combat changes from the last update were partially reverted, and will now only use Drop Pods as a backup spawn method.
* Another potential fix for blank reward notifications after completing an alert.
