A lot can be improved, but it is still good fun imo.
A lot has been rebalanced and at the same time new problems were introduced.
Some of the biggest differences between now and a year ago are:
- The host state rewind, which (almost) solved the lag issues.
- It is 12v12 now instead of 8v8. Three lances of four
- The new maps are twice as big.
- Tons of big and small weapon changes. (for example streak, gauss rifles and ECM have been changed drastically)
- Hitbox fixes on a lot of mechs. (Raven 3L used to be invincible)
