I've been struggling to get ESO downloaded, and I finally did last night. Once the dl finished, I got a "Repair" button to appear. So clicked it and here's is the sequence of events:
1. Launcher "verifies" the game data.
2. Launcher downloads very small file or two.
3. Launcher verifies the game data again.
4. Launcher starts downloading the entire game again.
I exited out of the launcher once the it started downloading the game again and restarted it. That game me a "Play" button. So I clicked play and got a Error 11. The crash came before any type of loading screen for the game. Because of the strange launcher behavior, I didn't really expect that the game would launch. At this point I tried to re-repair the game and steps 1 to 4 occurred again.
After trying a few times at repairing, I noticed a problem with step 3. This second verification never ticked down the "27000 MB remaining" message of the launcher, nor did the data transfer rate change from 0.0. It seems that the second verification never verified any of the game data. Therefore it didn't think there was any data. Therefore it started to download the game.
I have a slow download from my ISP. It takes me more than half a day to dl the game. I'm currently downloading again, and should finish this afternoon.
Does anyone have some thoughts? The problem seems to be the patcher/launcher, but I don't know what to do. I don't think I'm going to touch the repair button though. I am running the launcher as administrator also.
Thanks for the help.
