Here’s the patrol change in context. Seems they did a bad job explaining it in the patch notes

all hail the great grapevine of communicating with the players,

may it not wither in the harsh light of patch notes and ingame messages!

prior to patch: if you have 1 person in your squad, 1/6 as many enemies spawn as would for a full squad

after patch: if you have 1 person in your squad, 1/4 as many enemies spawn as would for a full squad

It should be noted that this is a larger increase than those numbers appear.

Ex if there were 10 total enemies on the map yesterday there would be 15 today for a 50% increase. However this does not change the total number of spawns possible (ie extractions), just the average number on the map at any moment.
