Anyone else feel as if this company ignored us for nearly 3 months and then all of a sudden came out of the wood work and gave us fake network updates and some fake ass patch information?
In regards to the "fake" patches, I may understand your point to some extent as they mostly addressed issues that in many cases we've never even heard of that so we wouldn't have noticed if they took effect or not. This does not make them fake, but doesn't make them real either. I highly doubt that they would fake these, although I have no proofs for this.
The Network Tweaks are definitely NOT FAKE. Lag has reduced considerably, with more green bars each game, it is faster to get in games (though mid-game joining is a nuisance imo), and the host migrations work a lot more often. This was a HUGE improvement, and while they have a little bit more to go in terms of what I spoke about in a thread I made in the last hour or so (https://secure.gamesas.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=41&t=29418 ), they've helped a lot.
We shall see what the next patch does, hopefully it will fix some other big gripes people have but at the moment the game is very playable for many, including my friends though it still needs some streamlining IMO.
