http://www.sendspace.com/file/wc06tl Here it is. Thank you for quick reaction!

Well, it loaded today and I played multi-player for few hours, but then it again ceased to work. Maybe some driver issues? Not resolved, looking forward for today patch.

What is the situation after the patch?

I should specify that I was able to briefly play after patch from 15th (462 MB). I am at the work now, so I will download DEV patch asap when I am home (but I do not see anything on Beta Development branch thread for 16th yet). Will let you know immediately, again thanks for caring!

I guess you can mark this as resolved - after download of patch game started, then it again ceased to do anything. I restarted Steam and then it worked, but it seems that I always have to restart Steam if I want to click Play after once closing game. A bit annoying, but still better than not working at all!

Mass closing ancient tickets with no activity this year; assume fixed or too trivial etc.

If this issue is still relevant in current dev build, please create a new ticket referencing this one and request for it to be re-opened.
