Is there a http link to the patch file?
It's currently taken me well over 5 hours to match to 60% using the in game patcher.

    So I take it no patch download link or torrent? It would have taken me less time to download the complete client as it seems to install a bit of patch every 500kb or so.

    The launcher is mistakenly deleteing the pre-patch files that many of us downloaded. It's a mistake, they didn't intend it, hopefully it'll go better next time.

    There is no alternative but to just let it download.

    I remoted into my home system from work when I read the server were back up and the patch seemed to take no more than 15 minutes. What is the definition of "I have one of the fastest Internet providers" ?

    Also, turning off all taps in the house can't hurt either.

    No TRIBBLE. Whether the "provider" is fast has no bearing whatsoever. It's your connection that you pay for that matters somewhat. I have a 5 meg DSL connection, and I was good to go in three minutes.

    I must be very lucky then. All what happened for me, was that the launcher patched the already downloaded files and only downloaded about 90 megs.

    According to the sticky FAQ, they found and fixed the problem so the launcher stopped deleting the pre-patch files earlier today.

    Bad news for those who've already tried it, but a bonus for those of us who have to wait until the end of the work day to play.

    hey, let's be fair... the 2-3 new off duty uniforms and hairstyles and the picture of your ship after hitting 'u' probably takes up at least 1.6g of that...the rest is really cool bug fixes and c-store skins.
