From a practical/end-user perspective is there a summary of the main differences/benefits of this over the standard client?
Ethereal FAF Client 2.0

- Lighter
- Faster launch
- Faster lobby connections
- Faster game launches
- Faster reconnections
- Faster patch confirming before game launch
Theoretically, things that can be made faster:
- Map generations
- Lobby authorization
- Ice adapter
But those things will never happen in near future, because it is different projects
Is there support for the different game types, in particular FAF Beta Balance and FAF Develop?

You didn't release first version, but got second one already xd

@brutus5000 Excuse me, this version is much stable and you can safely play custom games xD
Nobody questions that. All we question is why you have 2 version numbers so Client 2 version 1.0.x instead of version 2.0.x

@Brutus5000 xD I thought it's like Client 2.0 Refresh of Client 1.0
And about versioning, I didn't think too much tbh.
I will fix it with next release then xD
