It takes more than 2 hours. It downloaded 200 Mb and it still dowloads but it stays on 84%.
My internet connection is ok because I can dowload anything I want on Itunes or any website either.
What should I do with this such bugged launcher?
I'm really fed up with PWE/Cryptic. PWE like european money for its zen. But it provides the worst for european. It a way to express discrimination against european.
Thanks in advance for the warning you would send (and I wont read). That's only thing you do very well...

    Same here, stuck at 72.8/84.0 MB patched (86.8%).

    I've noticed since a few month, that for each patch, the furthe patching went, the slower the download was. Now it simply don't download the patch anymore when it reaches 1533kb downloaded. Tried restarting manually, for no effect.

    The weird thing is, my firewall show incoming traffic for star trek online.exe coming from 208.95.184.152 from 10Kb/s to 50 Kb/s... but patching does not progress. Left it at 86.8%, was at the same point when I checked two hours later.

    I have the same problem, first this morning there was a patch of 1GB, and later before clicking engage, briefly there was a 2GB patch that quickly vanished and the engage button appeared, and when the announced patch appeared it was around 180 MB , and it downloaded some 100 MB and it stopped, or sth, and I started it again and now it gets to around 70 MB( around 80%) and nothing afterwards. Will someone address the issues :(

    same exact problem... launcher gets to a certain amount left then it keeps eating bandwidth but the patching does not continue past 81.9%... its downloading at 100kb/sec but nothing is happening its just junk data

    update: tried to restart the patching process... and it broke the game files and it just said "Patching" with no amounts or progress so I deleted the entire game and redownloading from the website from scratch... if it doesnt work then Im quitting this game for good... if I remember correctly this is like the 6th or 7th time this has happened... and this is at least the 3rd time Ive had to completely redownload the game from scratch, bang up job PWE you really improved this game when you took over.

    Mine started at 695mb. After 5 hours it got to 682mb.Then it died. I got a Server unresponsive. I killed it logged in again and now it was 1.6GB to patch. What is wrong with the site. I have not been able to get into the game for 6 days now.

    my advice would try your best to save the copy of the game you have now, because deleting it is a BAD idea... I downloaded a new copy from the website 4.2 GB + after getting the launcher started there was another 6.6GB, and now after I woke up I find the launcher has crashed, and after restarting it, there is another 3.2GB to download... I didnt realize this game was 14GB

    You guys should be able to see one of the potential problems just by looking at all those replies and from the other post. A lot of people are trying to download the patch if there is a lot of people trying to download the same file at the same time it will go slow. I'd recommend you wait for an off peak time and try again then. I downloaded the patch last night at around 2 am EST no problems at all. Loaded the game up and then shut it down as I had to go to bed for work.

    Also I'd suggest doing a cold re-boot shut down the PC leave it for a minute then start up. Close all other processes and make sure Arc and STO is the only thing working. that will help too when the pc is still cold
