I've been having two separate problems since 109 was released.
The first is that my game will sometimes refuse to respond after I land (which thank God isn't often). I'll be stuck sitting on the field, watching everyone around me flying, but not being able to get into the tower no matter how many times I push the button. Sometimes it will bump me to the "periscope looking at sheep" screen, where it will lock.
Usually a hard reset is the only way out.
The second is that when logging on, it takes an inordinate amount of time for my game to update, ie, load up the roster, change the map to reflect the current situation and let me get playing. Sometimes it won't update at all, and the only recourse I have is to log off and try again. There have been times where I have to try four or five times before I'm successful.
This only seems to happen in the main arena. It doesn't seem to happen when I go to other arenas.
