“Beyond these next-generation changes, we're also doing capacity testing, to improve the responsiveness of the game under large battle scenarios. This should allow us to track down and squash any remaining bugs in larger multi-player environments, while also helping us scale up our battle situations and allow the ever-more gigantic battles that we envision for the future,” reads the official announcement.

Also, group owner's mines will no longer detonate on other group members, if the mines have been laid before the group was created, mines will no longer detonate on a group member if the member joined the group while in the proximity of the mine, and the Voice Chat cross-talk has been fixed.
