Hello,

I've got problem with this stupid game... Few hours ago I tried to start game, but I;ve got small patch (about 100mb). After it downloaded, I've got error with Invalid Memory Size, and my client crashed. Than I reopened it, and boom! 5GB to download... On my slow internet it's pain in the ass to download 5GB :/ Ok I downloaded it, and? BOOM! Again Invalid Memory Size, and again 5GB to download.

It's ***, I lost few hours of my play time!

THIS IS ***!

    Man, it's another 5GB to download! I've got now only mobile internet with some restrictions (like limit 10GB). Who will pay for extra 5GB I donwloaded useless? I lost yesterday 5 hours to download this 5 GB and 50% of my limit, now you tell me I must download another 5GB!? Is that fair!?

    "We believe that patch today may have addressed the issue" - ok so it's your foult, you prevent me from gaming so you should Pay for that!

    If my subscription is OVER noone gives me 1 day extra free - I cannot login and you'll never have any "mistake" there. Now I lost my time, my mobile internet transfer and a lot of health since I was very frustrated yesterday. Like I said in my email to support - If i'll not get this [snip] time back, I'll definitly cancel my subscription.

    You have to use launcher to update your game (or you get outdate client error).

    Fixed it now for me: In order to fix Sundays desaster patch I downloaded the old files posted on the forums and replaced mine with them.

    After exchanging them with my backup filed (the _databuild folder) it works now.

    Or its just coincidental. Who knows.

    The same issue - more or less. The errors vary for my installation. This is what's happening on my copy of ESO:
    - I patched the game and all seemed well. Clicking "Play" results in the client crashing before I get the intro videos with the logos.
    - Start the client manually (eso.exe) results in a crash as well.
    - Use the repair option results in this error: ABORT: Invalid Memory Size (0 (..\..\..\..\shared\unzipper.c/823). Launcher closes at this point. Restarting the launcher does nothing since it doesn't need to update, but clicking Play results in the same crash as above.
    - Deleting the patch files forces the launcher to update the client. The update then ends with the Error 303 - PatchError_UnzipFail - Failed to open patch, please click repair for your game.

    I purchased ESO this morning and was looking forward to exploring the game this afternoon.
    I am having the same problem on my Mac. Error 303 Patch Unzip fail. I can't install the game and have emailed support but have got no reply.

    I'm having exactly the same problem. It started a few days ago and I had to reinstall the whole client to get back in after the incorrect patch was put out. Today there's a new patch and it's not working again.

    Can this please be resolved? I'm sick of having to download 25 gigs every couple of days to get into the game.
