Is it worth it to install the latest Beta?

[PC] Beta Update v04.04.01.00 (1/28/2022)

Or just go with:

v03.00.02.00

?

The latest beta is actually Hot Patch version 05.00.00.10.

This includes several bug fixes.

Your milage may vary, but I personally prefer 5.00.00.10 over 3.00.02.00.

IIRC there was a change in some of the game files after version 3 that would make the 5.0 hot patch inoperable. You likely would need to install the most recent release (v04.04.01.00) from the Members page first.

Thanks everyone.

The members page shows and downloads:

WorldInFlames-UpdateComp-v04.04.01.00-BETA.exe

But the 5.00.10 patch says I need:

Note that to use this Hot Patch you have to have installed the Public Beta 04.02.00.00.

Where might I find this 04.02.00.00?

And are these installers or just exe replacements?
