Pretty nice changes allows more movement of troops in one place minimizing the risks but rising the stakes for pilots/drivers
To sum it up:

The coolest thing about this change it that I no longer have to get mad when blueberries jump into helicopters that I'm trying to fit my squad into. It also allows for some cool tactics where you can do a big early game rush or orchestrate a massive comeback by getting suddenly deploying 2 full squads from a medium-sized helicopter.
So thanks devs for making this possible!

Warrior should hold 7 passengers instead of 6.

Steelbeasts only listed 6 and they usually rather accurate:

However we also looked at pictures of interiors now and there are 7 seats, so will add one more.

Or die on your way to your destination. Giving 20 kills to someone and making the match even less balanced / funny to play.

The passenger counter in left bottom corner now doesn't show correct number of total/occupied seats. While this is a pretty tolerable tradeoff, is it fixable though?

It shows passenger seat count, not total.

Just today, I was in a Mi-17 Hip-H and the counter said 7/14. I was in seat 8, we had 2 squads sitting there so it was full. What does the 7 stand for?

Seats not including the seats with dots.
Show me video if you think it's broken.

Okay, let me debunk this, 2 squads..Are they both 8 man squads? if so then you should have 17 people in the chopper, 1 pilot, 3 infront and 13 in the back.
You said you were in seat 8, that means you're actually in the fourth passenger seat. (Correct me if I'm wrong devs).
I don't think this is a bug Alon. He's just uninformed of everything I think.

I'm not saying it is a bug... But I don't understand what does 7 stand for. Attaching screenshot and the theoretical capacity of that helicopter, which is 4 + 14. My seat is number 9 in this screenshot.

Looks completely fine to me.
4 crew + 7 passengers = 11

Crew means all positions marked on the vehicle top down view icon. These are pilot, copilot and gunner seats usually. These are not counted into the total above the vehicle name. That number above the vehicle name represents the passengers (all other seats without any other function). So for the Mi-17 this means 4 crew seats (2 gunners + pilot + copilot) and 14 available passenger seats.
In your case 7 passengers are seated as well as all 4 crew seats.
The name list will only show a maximum of 10 names.

Alon, Mineral, thank you for explanation, that makes sense.
A more elaborate manual certainly wouldn't hurt this game...
