We just launched the 1.6 patch. Please restart Steam to make sure you get the patch. Thanks for playing.

Networking Changes:

- Added Mid Game Reservation System - Fixed a memory leak relating to reflection captures on servers - Fixed flamethrowers causing network lag and server crashes - Server browser, Join game and Invites will now request a reservation from a server before attempting to join.
