What did the patch do? Nothing?

So I woke up yesterday and my friend texted me saying that Crysis 2 had an update when he signed into XBL. He said the lag issues seemed to be fixed and that the killcams didn't seem as bad either. (ie. someone looking at you with their gun and killing you the instant they aim...thanks lag) Well today at the last game I was playing before we were gonna sign out for the night I get a total WTF moment from the MP.

Well the game so far had some issues with lag and the host had a clear distinction with kills already. (for whatever reason I died 7 times in a row by him) - they even gave me a nice "Here's a reward for not dying again and getting a kill" XP. Well at the end of the game right before we won I'm in cloak and I run up behind a guy I got the option to stealth kill so I click in my RS...next thing I know I'm going into animation, and then...the guy walks away and the animation for the stealth kill stops. WTF. Next thing I know my buddy comes over and stealth kills him not 3 seconds later and mere 3 feet from where I was supposedly "trying" to stealth kill him.

I mean really come on! I will admit I lost it at that point...how the hell does that even happen? How bad are the lag issues in Crysis's MP that you have your character going into animation getting ready to perform a stealth kill and the guy just gets to walk away from it?! Whatever this patch did I have no idea if it was to fix lag issues and other connection issues for MP I don't see it.

I also love how Migrating Host 9/10 times just closes the lobby...

At least for PC it has apparently added "anti-hacking" stuff. Including one that resets your stats for cheating even if you're only rank 26 or so.

Its not a one step solution. "ANTI HACKING SOFTWARE ENABLED!" *every hacker is now banned* Prolly takes several stages and requires different methods to track everything.

Especially since pirated copies can play in ranked... meaning IF the dude gets a ban np, he justs logs again with another key or w/e how the hell the pirated copy works. -_-

This patch also fixed the issue where people with the tactical controller layout attempt to zoom in there scope with a sniper, it makes them crouch/uncrouch because the button to zoom in is the same button for the tactical layout to crouch. Like i said before, it's been patched now (thank god)
