Ditto here with game opening launcher on exit. Not sure if I should let it download the patch in the background (which could take ages at the speed it's going) or if I should cancel and wait for "official" patch information. Would appreciate some kind of official update.
Odd thing is you can exit the launcher when it begins to patch and then re open launcher and good to play. .can only imagine without cryptic mentioning a big download it must be a bug..or maybe its that new preview server showcasing all the new content for the out of beta launch?

It is the prepatch for the big balance and gameplay patch. They just forgot to tell people that they turned prepatching on.
It is so everyone doesn't have to download several gigs of data when the launch hits. If you don't want to download the prepatch right now, you can close the launcher and the next time you exit the game it will pick up where it left off.
Slowest DL ever. Currently I have a 60MB's DL speed(tested during the DL), so this patch should take around 5 minutes - alas after 2hrs though I'm stiill only at 57.4%

No idea on the why, but this only started happening after the patch today!
And it's a right pain
