How bad is it?
It is that we still have the old "first player goes first", or is it random now, or is it "defender goes first most of the time"?
If it has at least been fixed to "random" then, well, at least it's fair
But if the situation has net been improved at all and it's still "first player goes first", then, uh, I think Shrapnel should wait for the next patch before printing those new CDs...
