Hey, I'd like to know too

Or, how about just having the program do it as an auto-reinstall?

Well, that answers *THAT* question. I was wondering why we weren't getting patches any more often. You have to reinstall the game to patch. That's a good reason not to release a patch a day or even a week

It's not typically like that. Just that there are a large number of significant changes, so any leftover files from the previous beta build can cause unforseen issues. So it's better to start clean.

Yeah, it's basically a support issue. Updating should work fine, but since every single file's been updated, it's just faster to install fresh - plus it avoids any issues where old files aren't overwritten for whatever reason (that will cause crashes).

That'll happen... some day.

It is a lot harder now, but not enough to take out prepared defenses for the most part.
