I can't figure out how to actually play the game. The play button does nothing and the lobbies button does nothing either.
I have been having the same issue as above, and I'd like to add the buttons in the Settings menu (Video, Sound, Controls) do not do anything either.
It first was the same for me. After starting the launcher as Admin (Windows) it was able to pull the files it needed. (Seems to be an issue with 'C:\Program Files(x86)' and the permission that is needed for that path)
my comment is a bit out of date. after they released an actual launcher for the game, it worked
