Issues fixed
Unable to play online
- This is an issue which involves an inability to connect to online games, caused by Blur's overly strict reliance on port forwarding.
- The only reliable way to play online is to use Virtual LAN software such as Hamachi or Tunngle, the latter of which still has an active Blur community.
