Steam error: There has been a patch that you need to update to

Can't get the game to work. Keep's saying the update just finished, and every time I click log in, it gives the same error message.

Can someone give me a list of things to try and resolve this?

Cheers,
Ben

Also this in the Client.txt logs:

2014/06/16 17:50:51 395790 39d [INFO Client 2708] Marking steam content as corrupt in order to force a recheck of the patch

Same here.

Also when I restart steam the little update window appears the first time I click on -> play, and it says ready to launch.

It clearly isn't, as steam has cocked it up with its shitty updater.

And I've just noticed when I 'verify integrity of game cache' it immediately starts and finished a 0 byte download. So something has failed, and steam doesn't have a manual force re-update system.

Exactly the same for me. Actually, when I first opened Steam today the downloads list had a 7.5 MB update for PoE that "completed" instantly.

PoE patches and Steam have never worked very well for me. By that I just mean they took unreasonably long, they would download 2 MB and stop for 3 minutes, then another 2 MB. And it's never been that bad with any other Steam game. Personally, I'm uninstalling the Steam version immediately and going back to standalone, but GGG should still look into this.

Same for me, can't login anymore! Also, no way to force a re-download of the latest patch.

I have the same problem. Anyone has an Idea how to fix it?

Same here !

Moreover steam is a pain in the ass.
After one hour I decided to delete and reinstall.
But steam won't delete local content.
After deleting myself, steam won't reinstalle PoE... (insta finish install, 0B/0B downloaded...)

Before I had a PoE wokring but not connecting
Now I have no more PoE.
