Increase in desync lately?

Usually me and my friends desync after playing huge games with lots of art and tank spam. But lately it desync super early even on medium 2v2 maps. Just had a game that desynced by the time we got the first tank out. But neither BK or COH have been updated yet there's a huge increase in desyncs. Does anyone know what's causing it or how to combat it? It's so bad at this point we can hardly play the game.

It's weird cause you can play months without desync and then you get 10 desynced games in a row. Nothing can be done about this..

Try to play with steam offline, and don't use background music, also you need a very good internet connection, if one of your mate doesn't have that, you will get desync as well, if one dude in the game has shitty connection, you're doomed, if you starting to see in game too often " user disconnected, trying to reconnect 15s...14s... " well, or steam network is jumpy, or one of your mate has shitty internet and will desync the game.
Coh1 engine can't handle disconnection too well.

Would that have any impact? That sounds strange.

Background Music do eat lots of engine ressources, its just to make your game more fluid, using recording device can fuck up your game too at some point if your pc isn't a war machine, etc...etc...
Remember coh1 turn only on a single processor, its better to have one huge processor than 10 smalls ;) it suck but its like that.
