My only explanations are either it was related to the database errors or the devs got intimidated by some forum reactions.

Apart from that I can't say how good exploits and cheats got fixed with that and I think no decent player can.

But yes... If this is all that can be done client wise we should immediately get to fixing the things mentioned above!
I didn't think they did roll back any of the changes to the net code.
The FOV was increased in patch #176 as people had complained about it in patch #175.
