ZOS have a terrible patching system and if they want this game to succeed they have to sort it out. This effectively prohibits people with data capped or slow connections from playing the game at all.[/quote]
I totally agree..
I downloaded twice the game client + this damn patch and i still get an infinite load screen and can't load the characters selection page..
Its been a full day the patch is out and I am totaly not able to log in and play.. though i have downloaded over 60G of data within the past 24h.
BTW if someone could help ! it would be appreciated

What? If other games like WoW/GW/etc can do patches right, why can't ZOS? 20-30GB for a patch is unreal, that's almost the size of the game itself! It's been shown time and time again that ZOS are incapable of patching properly.
Most if not all games patch by just cutting and snipping code where it's required to make the necessary changes which means patches are very small. ZOS seems to not do that and instead seemingly just replaces whole files and forces you to download totally unnecessary stuff that you already have on your PC.
Take the PTS for example, it took me over 120GB of download to get that working, about three times I had to fully download and restart the patch due to various patch manifest errors that are no fault of my own and twice the launcher downloaded the entire bloody game when the whole game is sat in a folder right next to it.

Bobbity Boop, this game might become poop, but I'll still play because I'm just a pile of goop!0 -

✭I apparently only have 12 GB free on the SSD of my other computer. I can't update the game on that PC because I can't hold the 25GB of temp files the game needs to update.
Not trying to hijack the thread, but how hard is it to re-install the game on a secondary hard drive?0 -

Do you know why ZOS will succeed? Because no other game has done what they have, they basically revolutionized it all in this game. No other game is as crazy as this one. There will be always the haters, its just normal but it will continue to get many and many fans because its wont stay the same.Have constant feedback on what to improve and they listen to their fans!(Even tho it may take a while at times...) For every new guy it gonna be x10 better than the previous.Leader of The Werewolf Legion, DC WW PVP Guild for Azura, we either pvping or training for pvp.

Make sure you've disabled all add-ons. That was my problem when I got the same issue.Quasim ibn-Muhammad - VR 12 Redguard Dragon Knight
