So, are you saying that all of the other updates that made me uninstall the game where not mandatory?

Not all of them, but a lot.

Usually to play on updated servers though you have to be up to date, so though its not mandatory, you may be playing in fewer servers.

Kinda like BF2, I dont think the patches were ever mandatory and as long as servers did not update, which were also manual, you could play on the 1.2 patch forever.
