Dark Age of Camelot has always encountered some prompt server crashes and this is still happening with the current US version (1.58). However, the ones of you playing on the most populated servers (Brocéliande, Avalon, Lyonesse, Ys & Excalibur mainly), know that since 1.52 ; there has been an increase number of crashes.
Since we first noticed it, our admins have worked on this problem in co-operation with Mythic. The first modifications were done at the end of 2002, but we were not satisfied with the results. It appeared that Mythic had similar problems when their servers were still in 1.52 and we were advised to patch to 1.54 as fast as possible, since this reduced the number of crashes considerably for the US servers.

Does it sound like they know what they are putting into these patches?
Sounds to me like... they are hiring people from outside their own employies, asking them to make patches
Anyway.. just a thought..
