Still same today - will have to start looking for patches manually. Not a problem before now.

Issue is via game front end not via a browser. Can download via Firefox fine - just the in game updater does not work. Anyway now I know to just go to the website to check for patches

Chris, I can't update from the ftp either using the launcher update. Something to do with my anti-virus software. If I turn it off the update works fine. I've tried adding exceptions, but that has not worked. I would go the direct route from the members area or if you are looking for the beta you can get it from our OTS website.
OTS is looking forward to Southern Storm getting released!
