I'm sure

Which means you will be downloading 0,125 gigaBYTE per second. Bit != Byte. Hate to break it to ya but it'll actually take you 112 seconds at full speed.

Dang...OK, 112 seconds you are correct....still I bet they won't feed it too me that fast

And 112 seconds is not enough to read 60 pages of patch notes...

You are going to be throttled down way more than that, I imagine. You have to remember you are not the only connection that will be made to their server. You are more likely to get a few megs a second in reality.

The typos were major things, like listing the wrong ability name. You definitely want those fixed!

Depends... what abilities would my Nightblade get if you don't fix it?

Nice try, but you still won't get a lightsaber
(or a darksaber either)

Hm . We kind of had those since start.Summoned bound swords/daggers of awesome black red darkness.

Yeah, I know, closest we will get to actual lightsabers, I like the siphoning weapons

Something along the download stream to me is shaped at around 100mbit, I never get more then ~11MB/s even on gigabit connections.

rophez_ESO · January 2015

One thing I've learned - game developer's definition of "soon" never matches mine.

I know....it makes me sad ....at least I can stream 4 Netflix movies simultaneously while I update two computers with the patch

...even then still throttled its a bummer

I should prolly drop to the 100 megabit....maybe then I wouldn't be throttled.....but its only $12 difference ....

SantieClaws · January 2015

I predict they will be up in exactly 30 mins - when I leave work for the day and don't get home for another hour .....

I only have a 10 meg DSL connection and I can't even DL at my full potential. It's server side cap for everyone.

I've hit 15-20 dl on patches (maybe that's ping time difference changing the server side throttle?).

Typically a dev makes a post that they're "finishing them up", and then they arrive about an hour or so later.

They probably have to be spell checked and translated to German and French also and spelling checked again also... Blame French and Germans.

Unfortunately the case is no always typical. Last round I believe " soon" was 3-4 hours. Although that was live server, so I think they were secretly waiting on maintence to be done.

Here giving us patch notes early won't do harm

Oh I know others download faster than I do. I was just letting you know that downgrading your speed won't stop you from getting throttled.

Might have to do with traffic at the time, because I to have had higher spikes like that for a while. At launch though? LOL it was bad.

I imagine from what I see of everyone sitting here just waiting to go, its going to be rough going to start.

It's time for the doubt phase. They hit a problem and won't be releasing it today.

FordPrefect · January 2015

Does ZoS use P2P for patch distribution or is it straight host -> client?

@pppontus , I'll add fuel to this fire!

If you have a "27 Gig" hard drive, it also won't fit!

Don't forget the download size converted to size on disk, too...

Where they get to advertise 1,000,000,000 bytes as a Gig even though translated its really .93 GB.

False advertising at its finest...

We know what your having for lunch at Zos now

Now we know why things at ZoS takes so long to get *** done.

I mean look at that thing, they have to fight legions of those things just to get to the honey, god only knows what else lurks in their office that they must fight to survive.

Oh ... and in Germany and France people already finished work for today, so they can't release the Patch notes until proper translations in those languages are sorted out.... sorry to break it to you guys..

Except it is not false advertising. MEGA = times one million , GIGA = times one billion.

Computer "megabytes" are not equivalent to the megabytes that follow scientific standards, and that's why they can get away with it.

Depends I'm at work so I cannot start my DL for another 4 hours (could call the wife and have her do it though.. Forgot to leave it open) maybe I'll get lucky and be the only one downloading (I doubt it).
