I've been getting crashes too. Wonder if it's the amount of work, or some bug. Luckily not on PvP.
I've had a few disconns still, even with the updated penalty for disconn. One gutless twerp, name not noted at the time so I've forgotten, baled on me after three turns, immediately after receiving his first OOA.
Would prefer to see a penalty for disconning along the lines of bans or total party kills. That'd learn the buggers.
Actually, I finished a PvP yesterday, which was a refreshing change. Got jumped by some poor sap with almost double my rating, I guess he thought he was going to get easy kills. It was a great battle, and old mate stuck with it to the grisly end, even if it was probably becoming clear he wasn't going to make victory.
That probably makes about a handful of successfully completed PvP matches, all in all not a good sign when the number of disconnections is so high.
