Startup failures with Steam now provide specific reasons, such as a missing file or another program blocking Steam. The game now explicitly informs the player when Steam fails to start, rather than showing a blank server browser with the computer name.
steam startup failureThe game now automatically reconnects to Steam if it was not ready at startup, and notifies the player instead of leaving them offline until a restart.

Fix · 4
Fixed an issue where lobbies would disappear from the server browser for players using a language filter if the host had not selected a lobby language; hosting now defaults to 'Any language'.
server browser language filterFixed the 'JOIN GAME' button, which now joins the first available lobby and informs the player if all lobbies are full or non-existent.
join game buttonFixed the server browser so that controller and keyboard inputs on lobby entries now correctly select and join lobbies, similar to mouse clicks.
server browser navigationFixed a crash that occurred before the main menu on RTX 50 series laptops; Frame Generation remains disabled on these laptops until NVIDIA provides a fix, while other graphics cards and DLSS are unaffected.
