Hello!

As has been the tradition these past few weeks, we've pushed an update to the Steam Open Beta with our next release, containing the 3.10.3 patch that has been sent on to certification for release later this week.

This week's update focus was primarily on stability.

We expect one more release next week to add localization for the various fixes during the 3.10 patch cycle and for a few more balance and bugfixes, but with this we feel that 3.10 has reached a generally stable point. If you run into any issues, please let us know in the Bug Reports forum.
