Doesn`t look like they`re gonna bother with a patch anymore. I think they intend on releasing all further multiplayer and mod updates and download via the steam engine. sux eh.
Gotta admit.... I really like the ease of use and in-game menus. Connect times are way too long though.

usually these easy update managers are slow to old style patch system when you download patch from somewhere from net is much better , at least i think so
