[Bug] Demigod does not check for updates when not launched through impulse.

January 6, 2009 5:13 AM from

I noticed when Beta 2 was updated I didn't have the latest patch. The only way to know to patch was to use impulse. However since the game can be started externally, maybe it should check for updates once you log on to online and offer to take you to the update site?

I think using Impulse is a way to make sure that you paid for the game. Patches are for buyers.

I agree, however. Starting it externally should do a patch check. Then if there's a patch, it can autostart impulse and start updating.

I think it needs to at least check you all have the same version in multiplayer.

It should definately do a check for version number with log on to the online matchmaking.
