I don't think anyone is happy with what the patch has done to the physics of the game, personally i haven't noticed much of a difference but i haven't really been looking at my times because iv just been enjoying the races and elims. also since this patch the online lobbies have been pumping! last night there were 20-25 rooms from tough phantom races through to elims... and they are not all just newbies either, i had a hard time choosing lol
I only usually play an hour a day but since the patch its 4 hours.
So its not all bad. imo
