9 June 2017 Install and patch?

ddbrown

I have been playing STO on my laptop for years now. Today (9 June 2017) I launched the game and was surprised to receive the typical download and install pop-up. I tried to close and re-open my STO shortcut and got the download and install window. After this completed I am now looking at a 14Gig patch.

Was this planned by STO on the second day of the summer event or is this some strange gremlin in my laptop?

BTW my laptop is windows 10. 64 bit
Toshiba Satellite
Intel Core I7 2.4Gig
Ram 8 Gig
Video card NVIDA GeForce GT740M also with integrated Intel graphics 4600

Did you turn the on demand parching off? To me it sounds like a bug, or something to do with arc.

A 14GB patch sounds excessive. I switched off demand patch to download the full patch on June 8th and the download was just a bit over 6GB I think. Perhaps the launcher mistakenly thought you had corrupt or really old files on your laptop.
