What kind of connection are you using? After I found a CRC error on my 2nd original install disc, I just downloaded the patcher. Took about an hour and fifteen minutes, I just watched Surface and read a little and it was done. I can pull about 6Mbps on my cable modem, though (on a good day with the wind at my back).

Cable modem, 300up/ 600down.  The patcher isn't lying because even after I had to wipe the computer and re-ghost last night (don't ask) it was still telling me 8:15:22 this morning.  The wife's at home with the kids and I asked her to keep an eye on it.. sure enough it's now at 4h remaining.

I'd suspect network issues on my end, but everything else I've downloded has been its usual quickness.  I'm wondering if it might have something to do with using the Reserves patcher.  I didn't re-up my sub quite yet so I'm marked as a mooching loony rather than a paying customer.

Is there a port I need to forward or something? Mine started showing 14 hours and now, after leaving it up overnight and all morning, it's at 76 hours.

Maybe the timer is messed? Mine patched in 1 hour, 30 minutes and it seemed to count it correctly.
I hope so, because now I am sitting at 12 hours 30 minutes ...

Ditto.  I would say flush your ARP cache, but you said you reloaded.

Hm. Restarted the download, now my DSL monitor tells me the launchpad is downloading with 1500 kbit/s.  Rock on!

I usually download at much higher speeds, but that is much better than the 300 kbit/s I was getting before :-D

I think it's on their side, my bandwidth stands at about 3mb/sec down, and I wasn't getting anywhere near that.

I think I still have an Vanu character on Emerald, BR 10 or something.  I know he was certed for a BFR when I last left.  Name was Aradian or Naidara I believe.  Guess I'll download the client and start patching tonight

Rollcall: Ailuridae - Vanu, Emerald

I still need to do the VR room and a tutorial or two, but she's made and ready to be made a part of the outfit.  If the roomie is around I'll likely be playing NC.  We'll see how this shakes out.

Hahahaha!  I'm really good at this!

My second char is Sklar, MAX/Armor driver.  I'm going to make Evangolis a support char with stealth, advanced hacking, and basic engineering.

Made Merusk last night.  R4 focusing on heavy weapons.  Since my station account has me listed as a 2-year vet I also get to use the vet reward sniper rifle w/o a cert.  Buahahah.

We don't have an outfit yet.  We need ten people in a squad first.  Most we have had is 6.
When you are ready venture out, log into vent or say something in IRC so we can add you to the squad.

Crap, don't change games until I get a chance to play. Won't have any time tonight either, but tomorrow should work.

I guess just show up on F13 TS and see if there's a PS channel?

What times are the peak here?  I'm working at -5gmt (est) but I figure most of you are MTN/ PST (-7/-8 gmt)  If you're all getting on at 8pm local then no wonder I  haven't seen hide nor hair of anyone.

 I popped in for about 10 mins while doing the taxes last night and Nebu/ Tazel were the only ones on my friends list. 

- p.s.  - to set-up the friends list hit "p" then go to the appropriate tab.

I'm eastern time. I can usually get online a couple evenings a week, but early for the left coasters, like 5:30pm-8:30pm (eastern). Next week it will be tuesday night. Some nights if I'm not too tired I can get on around 10:30 or 11pm for an hour or so. Weekends are up in the air, maybe next saturday for a while (I mentioned elsewhere I'm skiing tomorrow). Sundays are usually shot, unless my buddy gets his hours changed now that football is over.

As I said in another post about playtimes, there are valid reasons why I like to solo in mmo. I'm just not reliable for playtimes because I don't have a lot of free time available, and rl always comes first.

I was going to jump on last night around 10:30, but I was beat and just went to bed. I've played a total of 55 minutes thus far.

Just about to hit the BR 6 cap with Tragny. Did a little ANTing today thanks to Blixey's advice from last night. Fun at times, but as was posted by someone else earlier, I'm not entirely sold on the game. Worth the price of admission so far, though.

You might want to try talking to either their CS or someone in IRC. I remember having to do some port forwarding for my router back in beta. No idea if you're having the same problem.

My account still has my old friends list. I forget everyone on it, but it was folks like Darniaq, Geldon, CHICAGORANGER, Chorulle. What ever happened to Chico, is he still around somewhere?

You're gonna have to delete the install and re-install it. I was having the same problem and the only thing that fixed it was a clean install. The tech support forums were utterly useless in that regard.

Tuned in, immediately get to watch cringey Ubisoft talking head offering her deepest sympathies to the families impacted by the Orlando shooting while flanked by a man in a giraffe suit and some sort of "horrifically garish neon costumes through the ages" exhibit or something.  We need to stop this fucking planet right now and sort some shit out. -Kail
