Can someone post BF3 R6 patch notes?

Or is this it?:
- End of round crash fix
- Connection fix to avoid players occasionally being rejected during a join attempt
- Ghost server fix
- Enhanced kick reasons to better match situations for which they are issued

- Fix for crashes usually occurring during level switches. Server providers may see a little bit of memory leakage instead in this situation

- Game servers should no longer quit in some situations where the online backend servers are down. Server will reconnect to the backend once it's up again

- Fix for ghost servers which didn't accept connections

- Kick reasons should better match situations where they are issued. This will help battlelog provide more accurate information to the player

- Connection fixes to avoid players sometimes being rejected while joining the game server on one of the last slots

- Security updates

- Improved server logging

These notes were also posted to the "Events log" page for all BF3 servers.

Our server just crashed after about 3 hours running 32 players (at full capacity) running R6. Crashed mid-gameplay.

I am sorry to hear that Zane! Have the crashes been less since the patch though?

It seems totally random right from the get-go for me. Sometimes it would crash after 48 hours of uptime being full, sometimes it would crash on the first map change, sometimes it will crash after 2 hours, it all just seems random.

I hope DICE can iron these issues out within a respectable manner of time. I hope they understand that their players and communities are shelling out money to build something based around their game - and in its current state - its failing pretty hard.

Yes I agree, but I give them credit. they have released two server side patches and one or two client side patches already. That is dam good for the game only being out about a week.

the game is buggy but the bugs don't seem nearly as bad as they were in BC2... well to me at least. At least they are trying to fix the stuff rather then waiting for a month to even start like last time. if they can get all the MAJOR stuff ironed out before MW3 launch in a week they will be standing tall.
