Thanks for the idea Ooper! We now have the !patch and !getpatch commands on the London combogib server. I will add to the other servers after some more ATB testing and improvements. I used ATB for this as the functionality already existed there for the website and forum i.e. the !www & !forum commands and I didn't want to add yet another mutator to the server. I've also added a line to serverscroll that reminds players of the patch command in white text in the chat area from time to time.
The !patch command opens the browser to the main repo page:
https://github.com/OldUnreal/UnrealTournamentPatches
And if you are recommending the patch to a person that might have a short attention span or minimal technical ability the !getpatch command might be better as it will open their browser to the releases page 🙂

For anyone reading this that doesn't know anything about the latest UT patches it's probably best to start reading with buggie's post here:

Hmm, mabye I should instead link the !getpatch command to the releases/latest url instead.
