I'm happy to hear the 'ol Fartland is getting a bit of a nerf. (even though it was always fun as hell to get kill after kill with his overpowered flak cannon)
I'm also probably more hopeful of these performance tweaks than I should be, considering I'm running it on a less-than-ideal machine at the moment.
Also thank you for making PC's clientside now, that'll save me a lot of anger when I need to switch to hottie/techie quickly because I'm the first/only one responding to a building being attacked.
Overall, I think all of the changes are good. Keep up the good work, you guys are amazing!
