This may seem like a stupid question but I can't figure out how to download updated versions of the game. I paid for one of the old builds but would like to get an updated version but there isn't an obvious way to do it on the Receiver web-site.

Okay - never mind - I remembered how I did it last time.

Downloaded the update and...you start with a revolver now? I love it. I love how the shell casings get caught on the extractor when you dump them. I also love how you can check which shells have been fired by the dented primers. Do you just start off with a random gum or can you find the 1911A as you progress?

OMG - there's a Glock 18 in the game.

My brain just exploded.

actually I believe it's the glock 17 with a full auto modification.

as far as i know a glock 18 is a full auto glock 17 . how do you download the updates? i have no idea

the difference is in the modification, a glock 18 comes with full auto capability by default, but a modification would be aftermarket and therefore they're different models. should be able to download an updated version from the humble store or wherever you originally downloaded it, I don't think you can just download an update though.

oh well guess that makes sense due to it being a small game

The Glock 18 comes from the factory with select-fire function; it has a rotating selector lever on the side of the slide and is designed to not have any parts interchangeability with the Glock 17. All other standard Glocks can be converted to fullauto/select fire, however, with a replacement rear plate on the slide, which Receiver has accurately demonstrated. Side note, those end-plates are hella illegal in the US.
