7/8/15 - Ashes Update Available!

from AshesoftheSingularity Forums

Greetings everyone!

We're back from the July 4th holiday and have a new build of Ashes for you to try. 

This update has two new features:

  • Crash reporting: Crashes will now be automagically reported to us.
  • Multiplayer Matchmaking Improvement:  Multiplayer now validates that players are using the same version of the game. Those using different versions won't even show up in the player lobby now - should help prevent sync issues.
  • Steam - will now force update/install Visual C++ redists (once). Some folks who could not get the game to run were missing these or they were corrupted; so this should help.

Sweet can't wait to try it!

Edit:

it says "beta code invalid" even though I didn't press enter.  It says opt-in next to the game name in the list but no update started for the client.

Edit2: Okay, I believe it is working now. Can you include version numbers with the patch notes? This way we can compare to the version number on the main menu screen to be sure the update has been applied.
