6GB. Really?

Why on earth do I need to download 6GB for a bunch of bug fixes?

One step closer to canceling sub. ZOS, you might want to either:

A ) Get your act together
B ) Get your resume together

The small player base you have left is getting tired of this crap.

    This patch is not 6GB. No intermediate patch has been 6GB.

    Maybe you should see if there's an issue with your launcher.

    It's 12 gb. It was supposed to be 6gb but they had two builds of it so for some reason it's downloading both builds.

    Looking at the forums, pretty sure I'm not the only one downloading 6GB+.

    Maybe you should check YOUR launcher.

    I'm downloading the patch right now, and it's definitely not anywhere near 6GB. Looks more like about 500 or so MB.

    Yea, and when that one is finished.

    GUESS WHAT.

    It goes on to the 6GB patch.

    Better go grab yourself a beer bro.

    Looks like they fixed it up so it's about 500 MB, then the 6GB instead of 6GBx2. Glad I didn't download earlier...

    Ah, that would make sense. Maybe get a better internet connection then? I'll still be patched fairly quickly at this rate.

    Mine only did the 6gb but it was at the same time others where claiming 12gb which Gina confirmed. Glad they fixed that up before next week.

    LOL... get a better Internet connection.

    Yea, because instead of ZOS doing a proper patcher, we should all be download 6-12 GB several times a month.

    How much do they pay you to make these forum comments on their behalf? Just curious.

    I have 15 meg service but the launcher caps at 1.68 megs. Took me a little over 2 hours. Not everyone even gets that.

    I started downloading when I posted in this thread. I'm currently over 40% patched, and it appears to be downloading and applying in small increments.

    But very original (and cute as a button) with the "OMG, u totez hav 2 b ZO employee!" accusation. Seriously, just a solid 3/10 for effort. Bravo.

    Obviously doesn't understand there's no reason to force a 6GB download for a few bug fixes. Obviously doesn't understand games released 10 years ago had figured out how to get around this....
  • andrewsleonrwb17_ESO
    Bosmern,

    That ain't what he's saying.

    You say stop being an entitled child, well stop wanting everyone to be a child.

    See, we can all write nonsense. It's a valid point about patch size and frequency, not that they're fixing bugs.

    Are you guys confusing MB/s with mbps...? Because those numbers are pretty close to what you would expect to get with 15 and 20 mbps internet speeds.

    20 / 8 = ~2.5. So ya... pretty close. Although another guy with 50 mb FIOS reported he was capping out at 1.5 also. Anyone else getting better than that?

    12Gb SHOULD not be a problem in almost 2015.. Its not ZoS fault. It is the entire world that holds on to the technology, so the companies make money when the technology "gets better". Stop using my tax money on:
    Religion
    Drug addicts
    People that don't want to job

    And start spending my tax money on:
    Better internet
    Looking for life and travel options in space
    Better battery in my phone (I KNOW this is possible)..

    My point is.. I don't know actually.. see you tomorrow in ESO at 10 o'clock (or 12 o'clock since the patch takes two hours to update)
    PC, EU server, Ebonheart Pact


    Finally a reason not to play League of Legends

    I was getting 6.4 MB/s on my ~50 mbps connection.

    Obviously doesn't understand that: "Made some performance changes which may improve client-to-server communication responsiveness during high volume combat situations. We will continue to investigate this issue." is a massive update within its own because its re-working a server that has a very high amount of stress on it.

    Obviously doesn't know that reworking servers that have very heavy traffic takes a long time

    Obviously doesn't know that those games that were released 10 years ago still go down for a whole day just for server maintenance and bug fixes.

    Why the hell did I cancel the update after downloading the 6gb and then run the repair and delete the folder.

    Making me redownload the first 6gb again, so either way I'm downloading 12gb.
