Subject: Patch/Login Issues
   We had prepared a small patch intended to fix a soft lock issue and unfortunately due to some internal miscommunication it was pushed during prime time. This caused players who attempted to login and download the patch to endure a very lengthy download session. We've since pulled the patch and players should once again be able to return to the game. We plan to apply the patch tomorrow morning at 3:00 AM PDT during off-peak hours which should allow for a much quicker download.

We apologize greatly for any inconvenience this issue might have caused you.

Please also note that for some players it may appear that an incorrect version of the game is running, causing the realm list to appear red. This will resolve itself after we apply the patch tomorrow morning and shouldn't have any affect on login or actual game play.

Q u o t e:
So mine downloaded till 79 percent then stopped. Is it gonna have to start all over again tomorrow or leave off at 79?


You can stop the patch, relogin, and continue playing this evening. The patch has been put on temporary hold.

Q u o t e:
Thanks for doing this after you d/c me from the game to download your stupid patch for an hour...


No one was disconnected from the game to make them download this patch, it was completely voluntary. If you happened to be disconnected then you would have been prompted to patch at that time.
