Awesome! Looking forward to trying out the keyboard mapping, and the improved MP. And the independant cannon/MG control will be very handy Thanks very much Anton and co!

Just one question: you say "the most notable fixes".... does that mean there are more? Any chance you could fill us in?

Full list of updates will appear closer to the release of the patch.

Thats fair enough..... but, just to pre-empt everyone elses question when they see the thread, I noticed that the fixes for MP scoring isn't listed.... I'm guessing its just an error, but could we just confirm that MP scoring will be fixed, before the trolls turn up and turn this thread into a giant whinge-fest.
