I hate when some assholes are talking on behalf of others especially when they should shut their mouth for being wrong or those "I will not agree with everything, must find something to complain even if I know shit about modding" guys...
Decreasing player's speed is one of the best things in new release - it looks and feels more real, and it is MUCH FUNNIER! Patch is PERFECT. Great work devs! I played it about 9hours straight. Nothing more is needed to say.
EDIT:
I really like the Patch..yet..I don't know, something is still missing, I can't put my finger on it. Maybe after I play some more it will hit me in the face.
Balance, or rifles being too accurate.
I played it for long, at the beginning I felt the same, but after 2hours it hit me in the face, very hard - and that was awesome!
Also stop whinning about balance, I saw enough on few servers to admit that maps are very well balanced!
