Summary: There is both good and bad in this update. The worse part is the revenue sharing. Yes, they removed the inactivity clause, but the 1-20 players = 20% revshare (because they put it as a per month number) means that 0 players = 0% revshare even if you have a player base. It's hard to say if this is how it works, but that is the way it reads.
