    It's a patch-as-you go type thing. On the launcher in the options, there is a setting to turn it off and then it will patch everything before letting you play again.

    Yes, this. Fire up the launcher, click Options, disable "patching on demand" or something like that .... you'll have to entirely patch the next time you log in, but you won't have to patch while zoning any more.

    Go to the Launcher click options up on the top. Click to disable on demand patching. You'll download the full game rather than trying to stream new maps.

    Its open beta so id assume there will be allot of patching and as the game goes open I would assume there would also be patching then if not as often. Im also not sure how the game updates my game files but it may be that every time you go to a new location for the first time the server may be updating your local game files and would be what your seeing as well. Like i said Im not sure about that but I have seen this before with other games.
    Just a thought.

    He's talking about how the game tries to stream content. It's buggy, slow, and can be disabled.
