So, how do I install it when Steam doesnt seem keen to download the patch??
cheers

we lucky fellows get to test the patches before they become officiall and released via steam. beta patches, expect this patch on steam in 1 to 2 weeks.
when the steam version is available for download via steam, you will have 1 of 2 options to ensure you update correctly. 1. completely remove il2 and all associated files and reinstall or 2. verify the integrity of the game files prior to patch release. you can verify the files via the right click menu on il2 within the steam application. This will check all the files and ensure you have the correct files installed. >patch away.
however, there is a secondary folder for this game, and this folder exists within your documents area, a personal files area associated to your windows logon. its good advice to clean this and delete the content prior to patching the game. is it titled "1C Softclub".
im sure other can point out some important aspects i may have missed, obviously you may want to keep some files for e.g. your control settings files for joystick keyboard etc etc.
