What is the Arc Client?

Recent Patch(es) not completing DL

Since Friday I get 2 seemingly different patches. One when I am initially connecting and the other when disconnecting the STO client, not ARC.
This is the one when I am connecting [img][/img]Patch%202-open.png

This is the closing/quitting patch [img][/img]Patch-closeing.png
Note that they are different sixes. This has happened 7 - 10 times. Everything seems ok, just these two unfinished patches.

Neither one progresses much beyond what you see here. They never complete or get close to it. I've tried Force Verify but that doesn't seem to work at all. Check mark/save... boom, a halve second later it says ready having done nothing.

Looking for a little insight. :smile:

First time using images and bigger than I had intended.

    I'm having the same issue if the client is closed when you restart it you get the patch and these are very large patches.

    if you can still log in to your game while this is happen, then this is because they're not actually patching anything but rather pre-loading the large patch for the patch day to the servers will (in theory) work better as there's a smaller patch to download as most of it has been loaded before.

    I let this patch download overnight last night, and it's still trying to pre-patch it after I closed the game today.

    Before it started it ALSO tried to install this 5 gig patch, failed in a few seconds, then let me launch. My game's performance was acting like I was downloading something big while I was playing, so it was still doing SOMETHING.

    My computer was also acting like it was loading something (cursor kept flashing a loading wheel repeatedly) when I closed the pre-patcher. Something tells me I shouldn't open this game again until whatever is clearly broken is fixed.

    I'm confused because I have had the second patch mentioned (4730mb) download at least 4 times in the past few weeks/month. Always the exact same size, and I cant play until it is done downloading. The servers also seem really slow when downloading these.
