Hi Jean-Luc, So you are saying that all players updates are determined by the update of the slowest connected player now? That way, although game play may be slowed a bit, no one will have an advantage in multiplayer? Was this a new change in beta 8 or 9, because I know this was not the case the last time we tested with 7, as I had quite an advantage against the person I was playing with on their slow connection. if this has been fixed, that is excellent news man. Thanks, Che
