I'd have to agree with you but we should give them more time to figure out whats going on.IRTPTP <
Can you figure it out.0 -
True, I guess I waited this long no harm in waiting a little bit more.0

rzx, you have to see the bigger picture. The admins need to find out why we can't patch first. If people have problem now, think of what will happen when it's open beta when there will be more people trying to patch. I really dislike the fact that I can't play but remember, we are the beta testers. This is what we do, find a problem and report it so that it can be fixed.0

I let it run for 16 hours now... finally got bt the elemets.data... but still forever stuck on tasks.data. I really hope they find what is going on...0

I had the same problem it wouldnt finish but after a few other times i got it0

I'm still having this same issue... Except now it's stuck on tasks.data. I tried the firewall exceptions thing, which seemed to have gotten me past elements.data, but I'm still stuck.0

I'm well aware of the "big picture", sachetoreckaer. If you read my previous posts I say the same thing you just told me. But like someone else has pointed out, there does exist a manual update option, let's test that out too. The admins have stated they are trying to get us in game, and a manual update seems like it would do the trick.0 -
Grrr... okay, I tried reinstalling, and now I'm stuck back on elements.data. That totally didn't help. ^^;0
-
I see your point and agree. A manual patch would solve this problem but I'm sure the Admins have there reason why there not releasing one at the moment. Oh by the way, it's sachertortecake not sachetoreckaer. I guess my name is way too long ^_^0

Just so the admins know, there are several other threads like this in the Technical Support forum that might (doubtfully) have some more information:

Any updates on this. Even an update of "we're still looking into it, but we have no idea what the problem is" is better then silence.0

Agreed, though I hate to say it. Maybe I should go back to playing my other MMOs...0

I'm starting to lose faith. With CB announced to end at Aug 27 I don't think there will be any help for those who could not patch and join the rest of the beta testers. With eight days of beta testing left, I don't think the Admins will put effort into helping a small list of people when majority of the tester are up and running. I guess all we can do is wait for Open Beta and forget about our wasted time here in CB. I do hope that our input on the patching problem are indeed helpful for CB testing data. Then our time wouldn't have been all for nothing.0

Wow, still no fix for this. This is pretty embarrassing for PWI, not only do you not know what's wrong but you also give your community no updates whatsoever - just the same "we're working on it, post details" since the problem began. I understand this is f2p and you get what you pay for, but this is a bit ridiculous.0

I agree. I appreciate the f2p and opportunity to voice concerns, but what's the point when I can't play? This would be a great chance for PWI to impress its new players with its technical support.0 -
I would like to see this technical support *Shrug shoulder* but I'm tired of my cries go unheard. I once again ask, is a statement too much to ask for?0

I don't think they have a solution for us so there's nothing for them to post. I think they are waiting for the fix to be sent to them since they don't actually develop this game. The game is actually developed by a different company, all this company does is provides to the NA market. They are merely here to post things like "we're working on it, post details", maintain the website, providing limited CS and TS, a puppet in a sense. Maybe I'm wrong, but I think this is the same kind of support 2 Moons had. So basically, we have to wait for folks in Asia to fix our NA problems. Once again, I may be wrong, but this is defiantly what it feels like with the lack of patches and status updates.0 -
I'm pretty sure (could be wrong, I guess) that this problem is NOT a problem with the game, but a problem with some network / IP / ISP / Internet settings. Especially since there are people playing the game just fine. Also I have the same connection problem trying to download the downloader from their site. It downloads about 250k and then just stops like I got disconnected.0

I don't see how it could be settings wrong on our end when everything else I do on the net works perfectly fine, including several other games.0 -
We updated our patch server earlier today so those of you still encountering difficulties may want to try the following steps:
1) uninstall your current version of the PW client
2) re-install the game to get the patch properly synced with software.
If the latest version still gives you problems, please post your issues to this thread and we'll get your info out to our technical staff.0
