I keep losing the connection, I'm running on DSL and don't seem to have any problems surfing and whatnot yet I keep getting dropped from the patch server (I was over 50% downloaded the last time [:@].

Is there a problem or did I pick a bad time to do it (3am on the west coast of USA)?

It failed on my first try as well. I tried again, and it everything worked fine. I would just say to keep at it.

The server is hit hard with people downloading. Keep trying. Sorry for the problems.

I managed to download it with no problems. Unfortunately I gotta go to work instead of trying it out.

My first attempt lost connection to the server after about 50%, but my second attempt worked fine. Patch is installed and works. I'd say keep trying must be sever overload.

This time around I had less then 60 seconds to go (116 out of 119mb) and it dropped me, I guess that's alittle better...lol.

Anyways I'll keep trying, thanks for the fast replys :)

We have to take it offline for a few to adjust the downloads area there.

Kelly, just like you, 116 out of 119 and then... off [8|]
Now he's saying no update available. Hey, looks like we need some auto-rule, something like "now it's time reserved to European players" [;)]
