The Updates page is the only status board we keep current. A green note means the build is the one to launch. A rebuild note means wait for the next post. Forum threads can lag behind that page, so do not treat a reply as the status. Check Updates after an ARC Raiders patch and after an Easy Anti-Cheat patch, even if you only play once a week.
Monthly and lifetime licenses both get the new build while they are active. You do not pay again for a rebuild. If the page says the build is live and your loader still fails, follow Setup once more. Then email support with the order ID and the error text. Playing on the old file after we have posted a rebuild is the risk to avoid.
