Why should I use autocad civil 3D 2014 over 2013

I'm looking to find out what inprovements were included in autocad Civil 3d 2014 over 2013, not just new item. 

 

Example:

1. what improvements were added to styles? is there user variable, any new autcad functions/data for expression.

2. I see they added tabs for open drawings. A good new feature.

 

 

 

hopfully there is a link for enhanments.

 

Thanks

The largest problem we've had in the past is data shortcut corruption, through our initial testing, the handling of DS in 2014 has greatly helped with our problems. The DS is promoted into the file but still linked to the original source. You can just send a file to someone else without have to deal with packaging and configuring DS referenced entities.

thank for the information, good stuff,  However

 

i'm look for enhancements of existing commands, and creating styles.

 

Look for the un-documented stuff. 

Example: in civil 3d 2009, we needed an expression to add comma, in 2013 it was an option.

This kind of stuff is waht i'm look for,

Mike is correct about the DS's not needing to be included...to a point.  Surfaces do not share this feature.
