See what I mean...I learn this from installing the PUB patch and then once I got on beta I knew whaere to istall the patch...not that the PUB has autopatch, probly people are getting TOO lazy, they have no clue where to install Beta patches untill they ask on the forums...
So whats next?
Auto beta patches for beta members...
LAZY people! I like the good old fashing way of installing patches, because then I learn where to put them...

Does no one use "The Guide"?

We need mit to put up a wee notice under the help section on the main menu. :)

(Go in-game,click on comms on the bottom right,click the guide or "web guide"...whatever. Help & Guides->How to install a patch)

No I ain't angry.

My opinion [and it ain't no strong passionate one] is that, if you aren't sure of how and where to extract the beta patch, it may not be for you. Keep in mind that betas are generally very buggy and if you like a smooth, easy game playing session you'll be best to stick to the public version delivered through auto-patching.

Knowledge would help.
Oh and by the way, being in the beta team doesn't speed anything up, this game is constantly in beta, all you can do literally is submit bug reports.

Just a note dramaking444, having capitals and big letters doesn't make it get answered any faster, so, maybe just say "Help on installing beta patch" or something simple, sometimes it gets annoying.
