Love the new (beta) version: way less foggy (almost no fog from what I see :|), the new dirt is way less red, more "earthy" texture, the rocks look better, I can see way more clearer inside buildings, nice addition to the plains making them more suitable to attack and defense by infantry.
I didn't noticed anything on the water, maybe there are some improvements but I don't see them
Now onto the problems:
1) The extra-zoom thing
Well ... it's still there.
I think it's a graphical thing, much similar to the "double iron-sight" bug that was happening on Station a few months ago.
Now, like then, depends on the direction you're extra-zooming. I checked the official maps carefully and you get a similar shacking depending on where you're aiming but the shackin is more reduced on those maps.
So .... I don't know if it's Wolverine's thing to fix or it's something that goes with the SDK.
I've made a movie to see how depending on where you're aiming you "shake" or not:

2) Flickering textures
I've discorvered some flickering textures, see video below:

3) Bushes on the (very) top of rocks
See picture:

They don't grow there, they look funny and remind me of nipples
You should remove them.
4) Smoke out of rocks
The smoke is nice but I think it's placed bad. Placing it on top of those big rocks formations make them look like small volcanos ... and there are no volcanos in Arad, big or tiny
