Scorcher for boomshot... :'( I'd have much prefered a boltok.

I don't like some of the changes.

The Mortar was really effective for destroy campers on the top position. The Torque Bow is completely useless.
For Sandbar having the Scorcher always in that point is boring. No one will use it.

My changes:

Overpass
Mortar > Mortar
HoD > Boomshot

Sandbar
Digger > Digger
Boomshot > Scorcher
One-Shot > Boomshot

Dry Dock
One-Shot > Mortar
Mortar > Mortar

The one-shot is awful in this map. No good spot to use it.

Gridlock
Digger > Torque Bow
Boomshot > Boomshot

they should change drydock, change mortar/oneshot to something else I think

I am extremely upset with the removal of the Hammer of Dawn on Overpass, it was one of the only maps with it on it and I loved being able to kill people without them ever knowing where I was, there are spots all over that map and now there is only one map with a Hammer of Dawn on it =\, the Torque bow also doesn't seem too interesting on that map, yeah it has a huge advantage if you get it up top but so far it just seems like the Hammer of Dawn would have been better.

Sandbar however? That works fine, I like the idea of the high ground being its only reward with the help of a Scorcher to assist in defending it (Not that anyone other than my friends and I pick it up), I like the changes to Sandbar and I am glad they kept the Hammer of Dawn on it.

You don't have to be on dedicated servers to have the new settings, you just have to have went back to the main (start) menu and re-downloaded the new settings.

The lobbies where you had old swaps were probably P2P lobbies in which the host hadn't downloaded the new settings yet.
