The improvements made in this patch are a vast step in the right direction.
This is a good game, with great potential. There are still some rough patches, in the multi-player especially. The connections just aren't very solid yet. Quicker, yes, but fragile. Played about 8 or 9 Mp games this morning/afternoon with btwn 6-8 players and each time one of the p;ayers, and it was almost random whom, had issues with infantry either not moving, tanks not responding or players dropping with runtime errors, CTDs or freezing.
I am going to play smaller sided games and see if this might help.
