To Neotheon:

you should also check your options (automation and such) as the new folder that all updates create use default settings (you can copy/paste ini files form previous folder to return your settings back).

ack you are right. I had to change all my settings after the new patch as it went back to game defaults. Why you do it this way Matrixgames? Why not just make your patch move all the important files and folders to the new patched directory?

Because these are beta patches

Wow played for about 10 mins and this has made a huge change.Destroying ships just got a lot harder..The long term consequence will be interesting to find out.

Good stuff. :)

Is there a way to sign up to get an e-mail whenever a new beta patch is released for the game?
