Just run RON then connect to Gamespy from within RON. The game will auto-update. I think a direct-download version is also in the works. We'll update you when/where to get it. The patch makes improvements to the online experience.

I suppose that's one way to look at it. Another would be that we're being responsive to known issues. We are, after all, serious about making sure we provide a quality game. The patch takes only a few moments to download so it's not a big deal really - I just posted so that folks who are aware of the online issues would know that we've taken steps to address them promptly.

You know, just because YOU don't have the game yet doesn't mean others can't have it either. I have had the German version since last Friday. I didn't test the patch yet, so I don't know if it's international, though.

There seems to be an issue with some international versions. We're looking into it now.
Also, any non-retail version is also not going to be able to update.

the following from graham somers (many thanks!)
quote:
Currently the patch is only available through our auto-patching
process via in-game matchmaking, but a downloadable version should be
available down the road. The big question is no doubt, "What has been
updated?". Here is a run down on the additions and fixes from the patch.
You'll notice that improvements to in-game matchmaking and the Scenario
Editor are a main focus of our efforts in this update --

Direct download link yet? Kind of ridiculous for there not to be.

Um... exactly HOW do you patch? I went to the website and couldn't download it. I tried opening the game (full retail version) but I couldn't find a patching program. Help please??

I ran the gamespy option, it downloaded the patch, but it did not run the patch, is there something else I need to do?

The game froze up and corrupted the registry on my internet machine and is prone to crash on the other where it does load!
So here I am on a backup of the master HD of my internet machine to get a patch and this?
Bizarromundo!
