I played like 50 or so matches so far with fellas from my country. With dudes close by (let's say, 20 - 30km away or so) I usually get 4 bars, maybe 5 in rare occasions. With guys from other provinces (distances could go up to 1400km or so) I get from 1 to 3 bars, mostly fluctuating. I'd say the netcode is slightly improved since vanilla. It's decent, but still a behind TTT2's or VF5FS's netcodes. Note that I'm from Argentina, and connections here aren't as good as the ones you could find in USA or Europe, let alone Asia.
