I started PWI and let it update patcher on my desktop and didn't let it auto patch from online since manual patch is much faster. I downloaded manual patch and ran it. I also connected my laptop to my desktop through my router so that I could run patch off it without downloading a second copy. I double clicked on patch to run it and since I didn't update patcher on laptop yet, it still had genesis patcher on it. To my surprise the Genesis Patcher patched all files over a LAN connection atleast 50-100 times faster than the Descent Patcher on my desktop. And before you all start saying its because of slower computer or not enough RAM or **** like that. My desktop is far newer and way faster and powerful with 3 times the RAM of my laptop. So its not hardware related. I don't know what they messed up but whatever it was, they need to fix it. A previous version working atleast 50 times better is not acceptable in my book.
