Not sure how you figured a major rewrite of the graphic engine would be a quick fix, the developer certainly never alluded to that.

Actually it was advertized as a quick fix. They said we'll have it by Christmas.
Also remember, this bad patch, we are stuck with for six months, is part of that "new graphics engine. The online crashes were introduced with this "primer" for the new graphics engine. My game was looking a lot better, runing faster and was a lot more stable before this last messy patch.
