    Stupid bloody steam.

    Yep, Steam is a curse, bet it dl the full game again just for the 250MB patch

    Server went mad earlier and I blame it on the new patch, Domi reduced to 1fps and locked up with only 5 playing.
    Clientside the game feels smoother after the patch though, not as choppy, definitely an improvement
