    Cancel it and then let it start the patch again .
    This has happened to me before .
    This patch for me was just over 600Mb whereas another person said for them it was 90Mb .
    The usual weird shenanigans from Cryptic .

    Good question. I only got 91MB.

    My download was not that big, maybe your system got confused and tried to download a fresh install???

    Thank you for the fast replies. I canceled the update and restarted patching and it downloaded a 19MB file

    I've been attempting to patch it for the last day. I let it run for a couple hours on my 200 mbps download, then cancel it after it hangs for awhile and try again, I'm on attempt 7. This is following a first time install yesterday.

    I've seen this when disabling patch on demand. Normally I would turn off patch on demand and it would right away download a huge patch. Lately when I turn it off, it doesn't seem to actually turn off until patch day at which point it downloads the full game and stops patching on demand!
