    Since when is 4-6 pm prime time anywhere? Everyone's still at work.


    P.S. All the people here should chill and go do something else. Yay. I'm playing FTL atm. Nobody will die if you don't play NW for one day.

    I agree it's not the end of the world. I would however like an update. We can get an update from sominator every 30-60 mins when they're doing maintenance, but nothing now.

    I'm actually drawing some comissions for now, just because I get back every 10 mins in here to post a useless opinion doesn't mean I'm not doing anything else XD
    an opinion is never useless

    here a litle article to cheer people up that it can always be worse then we have at the moment http://kotaku.com/5859963/an-entire-mmo-was-accidentally-erased-from-the-internet

    I read that and I went... "hua??!?!" What kind of IT folks they have there? That is one lame excuse. You must have a backup SOMEWHERE!! I mean heck, the programmer have a backup somewhere on their desktop.

    It is Server maintenance 101. Before you do any upgrade, you must have a good backup somewhere (preferably more than one place) claiming not having a "core code" backup anywhere is BS in my book. (especially MMO)
    To grow old is inevitable, to grow up is optional.
    Please review my campaign and I'll return the favor.

    The answer to the dl problem is simple : make a dl interface torrent-like (check anarchy online dl interface if you like).
    We don't need to dl all from your server, we need to dl from each other and from server.

    Yep idea is free and not patented - jump on it :)
    If you see this and have the answer - PM me or answer real quick because this post will be removed

    Made the mistake of closing and restarting again. Now instead of 46MB/101MB i'm stuck at 41.8MB/101MB. /le sigh

    makes you feel happy that we just have very very slow update atm right

    altho i must admit that its pretty funny seeing a 115 mb download for only a 101 mb update i had left

    OK. Im getting about 2 to 4kb per second. Even if this game had 2 million players ( and it doesn't ) and they were all playing now ( which they aren't ) and they were all getting the same speed, that's only 4gb of upload speed. Any decent datacentre is going to exceed that by a huge amount. Even single commercial lines are topping that these days.

    Finished patching after one hour and 10 minutes. Instant crash to desktop. Get past the Cryptic loading screen and see the background before the character seletion appears, and boom! Crash.

    PATCHED! It just zoomed to the end and i'm done. i guess everyone else gave up and there was no more traffic jam. After all, isn't that why i couldn't patch? :-p

    I read somewhere that crypt patched 3 games today, so, crypt didnt seem to think about the draw backs.

    That'll be the result of everybody trying to patch at once.. there's only so much bandwidth to go around.

    Sadly I have to disagree on this one, even when the mega module 1 patch came out evryone was downloading then and it was still compleate in min's for many of us.

    This is fraction of the size, and even on a high stress server we should downloaded this 10x over by now...

    Something definately wrong with launcher for some reason

    Wonder if this means I'll be getting a Sunite token or two for having (been forced) to miss my daily quest completion in time. I mean, this patch glitch IS a technical issue out of my control.

    Something is definitely messed up because this is super slow. I hope this is not a preview of how much worse everything is going to run now because the constant lag spikes are really starting to annoy me.

    Will it ever move from 88%??? It was 88% half hour ago and its still 88%. Please Cryptic learn how to do your job before you try to do it.

    I don't think there's any need to be angry for a slow patching speed for a game, it's not a really important matter. But I would still like some information from cryptic on what could be causing this. :S
