• Improved team balancing
• Removed top 9 players on each team
• Ship trails should no longer go crazy when you respawn
• Name service shouldn’t crash
• Back-end scaling improvements
• Bloom and film grain currently disabled

When the swarm turned up last week, we discovered some odd scaling issues with some of the newer features (e.g. the name service dealt with 100,000 requests in a few minutes, then fell over). This has now been resolved so you should who who shot who.
