Subject: Bliz Downloader downloading "Patches"? |
| |
What is this? And why is it only at 44MB of 144MB after it has been downloading for 3 days. I am not going through a router, just directly from the modem to my computer.
Any info would be nice. Also if there is another way to get this "Patches" patch I would appreciate it.

The background downloader is obtaining a portion of the 2.0.3 patch which is currently on the PTRs.
The background downloader purposefully downloads at a slow speed so as not to impact performance of your machine. The data being downloaded isn't used until the patch is released, so a quicker download doesn't mean the downloaded data will be of use to you any sooner. You can change the options of the background downloader through the launcher if you would like it to download while playing as well, or to not download at all if you choose.
