...and I'm already unimpressed. I have to download 3.5+gigs of patch.
Seriously? Couldn't they give Fileplanet a newer version for us to preload?
been sitting here for 5 minutes and I'm at 0.1%....oh...wait...0.2%
...if anyone needs me...I'll be in the lounge....

Yikes. It's times like that when it feels like MMO's and digital distribution in general are still in their infancy. That patch should have been rolled into the preload. I can understand a small patch that would have just gone live, but 3.5 gigs?

ruh roh. I haven't patched my beta client in a while. I guess I should so I can see how the latest version is. Sadly though, my characters got wiped. Brobot is no more.  I didn't even get a screenshot. |

Mine crashed at 1%, then I restarted it and I'm up to 13%. Same huge patch.

Yeah, I'm stalled out now too. And the forums are down for maintenence. Nice timing.
/nm they are up, but the patcher says they are down.

Thanks for the link Win
I got it downloading from Fileplanet's manager now. I'm taking a half day to go have lunch with the wife (she goes back to work this week), then hopefully I can get it installed and play a couple hours before I have to go fetch the kids.
;D

I'm still trying to use the old beta patcher. I hope it works.
