Did anyone know have same prob or know why the Patch Download is so slow?

Every other Downloads run up to 1,8 MB/s,but in the Launcher it patch around under 0,1 MB/s.

I disable on-demand Patching to get the full Patch,Proxy is US and Patch via Proxy atm.Im from Germany.

    Why are you patching by proxy? Have you tried without any proxy settings enabled?

    Have you tried disabling your firewall and antivirus? You could also test your connection to the patchservers to see if its an overall problem on the way to the cryptic patch server (as opposed to just on your end).

    If you are familiar with the command line window (windows OS), type:

    tracert patchserver.crypticstudios.com

    High numbers indicate high latencies. If it is happening on each server then maybe its not just on your end.

    Maybe your right. Also, there are likely many people downloading the tribble patch in preparation for the weekend test too.

    same here, I'm from Croatia, but not just Tribble, but Live as well is effected by slowdowns from monday this week, and not just patching when launcher is started, but also ingame patching when you load a new map.
    my ping to us based servers is 130-140ms

    Cryptic seriously needs to look at setting up a cdn for patching. Not just for tribble, hollodeck patches are painfull too.

    typically i go home for lunch and my wife has STO up and running for me. she was complaining that it was taking forever to patch. when i got home just past noon it was at 89%. she just texted me right before 2 this afternnoon telling me it finally completed.

    same for me, get's to 10.5 and stops

    in the time i was wating managed to download the whole initial client from steam and that started a 6gb patch which was actualy working.
