On Demand Patching and the need to remove it from the program!!!!!!!!!!

This function makes the game close enough to being unplayable at 54 Mbps. I can almost be 99% sure that anyone who knows anything about computers disables it as quickly as they can. The only people who leave it enabled are those that don't know better and because it slows game play down so much I wouldn't be surprised if you lose these people as customers, if you don't remove this blight from the game. In short It is a stain on a other wise great game. This is of course only my humble opinion.

Thank you for your time.

    If your having a hard time playing go ahead and disable on demand patching by starting the launcher and then clicking on the options tab at the top. Please if this helps your game to play better respond here so as to let cryptic know that it was a bad Idea.

    All you have too do is tick the Demand off if you dont want it to auto update works fine for me.

    If your unhappy with On-Demand, turn it off in your personal settings for the game.

    Some of us have to use capped Internet and with only 15gb I appreciate being able to just patch the portions of the game I want to play to save my limit.

    And before you say anything about a better net, this IS the best and only option available.

    yeah, just because you don't see the point in on-demand patching doesn't mean it isn't a good thing for others. Turn it off and let others take care of themselves.
