I thought the FOV may have changed but checked my settings file and it was still at 65 (1920x1200). Does the FOV apply to online anyway?
It seemed to run a little worse, but just assumed this was a combination of new patch lag and just general changes to the engine so a GPU driver update will be needed or something.
As for changes, the AN94 seemed less effective to me, less accurate in any case. I also seem to die very easily now... but i dont think my style of running round like a nutter is going to help me much if they made the hitboxes bigger
seems very nice to me the hitboxes are deffo a little different for sniping i found . ak and like seem a bit more deadlier now.
it felt smoother to me performance wise
as to fov i play at 1680 and have it set to 80 and yes it makes a big difference online

Yes , amd it seems to be a little jerky now.
I am a little behind with my drivers so its probably not helping... i think im on like 197 or something... Downloaded drivers yesterday and they were 256!! haha... what happened to the other 59!?
I saw a huge difference in SP when i changed my FOV but assumed it wouldn't work for MP because of 'cheating' or whatever - being able to set a fish eye camera and what not.

I'm reasonably happy with the patch, but it's definately too little too late. There are still a few issues and bugs (eg I always spawn crouched now, and my crouch is not on toggle). The only thing that I think they got right is the heli. So much more fun to fly, and if it's that hard to shoot down (damn countermeasures!) it ought to be fragile. Still, my tracer gun reloads faster than their countermeasures 
Performance seems a bit smoother to me?
The hit box thing should have been left alone, it does seem odd that it increases in size when moving, I wonder by how much exactly?
They need to release a patch to calm those snipers down though, it's like pogo shotgun blind kills!

they should force even balance on classes. ie 12 people on the team and you try and change from assault to recon... it comes with "sorry 25% of you team are already this class, choose another one"

whats so good about FOV being more?
how do i change it?

Bigger FOVs are suited to widescreen monitors, you can see more on both sides.
Between 80 and 90 is good while the default used to be 55 out the box which is way too zoomed in.
Change it in settings.ini in your documents folder.

FOV comes down to personal preference. When playing at 1680x1050 i dont like more than 70 as it gets a bit fisheyed (remember it is calculated as vertical FOV so the number u see is NOT the horizontal FOV). At 5340x1050 i use 60 FOV otherwise side monitor stretch is way too much.
This is how my night was too.

my god playing on the sas server soo borked. so much lag
i find since the patch theres no point in trying to run away from fire just crouch and dont move. also killing people is too easy. i had no problem with how it used to be apart from i wanted a few weapons tweaks. now you barley have to point the gun at them. will change the game abit for me, means you have to play a lot more like hc. make sure you check everywhere before you move
the heli however is almost really good to fly now. which is nice. will wait for a week before i pick this up again as i have shed loads of work to do anyway (and more mass effect 2 to play)
also is anyone else havign problems getting the ea gun club to work?
i cant get that or veteran status to work
