My install was flawless. Started it up, logged in, got ~1.3 megabytes a second (yes bytes). It worked fine even though the scheduled windows update restarted the box in the middle of the night. When it came back up I just restarted the patcher and it picked up right were it left off.

I was getting around 2.5-3.5 the whole time. Hopefully it'll be just as good when launch time comes around.

Wonder if everyone will be able to patch from beta or have to redownload.

Word on the street is this is not the last build. So most likely you'll have to redownload.

I *think* my patching is done, but when I log in it throws an error on the patch screen which immediately disappears and the only button that works is 'Exit'. I'm assuming the error is 'you cant play yet!' but who knows.

That is how it has looked all week. I assumed it was because there was no server up. Exit was it. I would open the screen daily to make sure I wasn't missing a patch.. like the one I had to download this morning... but back to Exit only before I left for work. |

With five weeks left to launch I would expect at least two more builds, one more test build after this current test data gets digested (so say, in one-two weeks?) and then another one with the final 'gold' client a few days or a week before the pre-launch people. There are a few things in this build that have been stated publicly to be in transition, such as the crafting system and outfit coloring system so there has to be one more client before the final launch client just to test those things. |

I think my installer completely correctly at last. What it was doing is downloading assets, installing assets, and at some point it would loop back and download all 16GB or whatever again. Just looped over, and over, and over. Kept at a pretty steady 3mb/s though so I must of eaten a ton of bandwidth.  |

I think you have to make a swtor account with the same email and stuff. All that stuff was rolled into one for me back in July. |

Yeeeaaaaahhh.. Best Buy has been pulling that shit for awhile now, same as Gamestop. I don't know which copy of the game you are trying to get, but if it's not the CE I'd go somewhere else or just buy it off Origin. |

First beta weekend I've gotten into and it had to land on skyrim day. I haven't managed to fire up modern warfare yet either. At least I finished batman arkham city yesterday.

Just got an invite again.
One note, if you get an invite officially, don't go for one of the ones on the sites listed as it may jeopardize your shot at another beta.

Everyone that is, who can download 138Gb or whatever it is before the weekend is up. I am maintaining my moral high ground stance of fuck all betas.  |

If you got a beta invite that DOESN'T have a big RESPOND NOW button it it, it isn't for THIS weekend, it is for a future one.
