You shouldn't expect that in the first place. It's an alpha and this isn't a public release.

It will be late where I am at but I still intend on playing quite a bit tonight xD
I feel bad though, as awesome as it is for UW to release the alpha and how much fun it will be I know there will be a ton of ###### who are going to point out every inconsistency and complain about the game... regardless of the level of stressing the fact that is just the alpha. Most likely including the problem you pointed out about I think it was hit boxes and how there are some major bugs regarding them. I bet that there will be at least 10 posts bashing that even after the explanation...
Thanks guys :) be sure to play your selves too! :P you guys deserve to have the fun you all worked oh so hard on.
By the way -.-' I read a lot of these people QQing. Of course there are bugs but hell. It'll be fun just the same and we'll all be able to say hey! we played NS2 since the first day of beta hah.

This is my question as well, so that I'm not sitting around twiddling my thumbs tonight when I really needed to do something lol.
So, auto-update from the engine test if your key is in? Or what?
