    Hmmmm very interesting. Attempted after the 'fix' patch has been put into place this morning and now after downloading everything....again....the new error message is that the patch is corrupted! Good one! Can you add a patch to fix the patch??

    Error 302 - PatchError_CorruptDest

    Edit: Tried the suggested repair for error 302 as listed here. Did not fix anything, still stuck in a loop repair and patch is the issue. Not worth the harassment of the download. I will wait for the expansion to go live. Too bad, was looking forward to testing this....

    Had to ‘Repair’ and ultimately completely reinstall, but it worked this time, and I was able to log into the PTS at long last! Looking forward to tomorrow, when I will (hopefully) actually have some time to try it out. ;)

    I had this "Content write failed" message as well. Tried again today and it fully downloaded then needed a Repair. Repair took about a minute then it downloaded another 9GB's then I could play. All is well now, Hooray!

    Did the repair. Download at 72%. Fingers crossed. If this does not work I for one will just give up. Questing sucks in ESO. (I restarted Skyrim to just see if I was nuts and no quests in and of themselves don’t suck, just in eso).

    Update;

    Download @ 83%, 24xx remaining @ 1.4MB/s.

    Hope it completes and launches without issue this time

    Update: After repair and a 59g download it started to apply the patch. Guess what, another 50g download lol. I wish I were kidding. I wonder if it’s too late to get my preorder monies back. Well, watching a progress bar is better than grinding dailies lol.

    That's normal. The patch is close to the same size as the base file.

    68GB total download. I did a workaround while waiting for the fix.

    Shared the working PTS folder to my Home Group. Deleted failed PTS folder on my second PC then used HomeGroup to copy to second PC. Started the Launcher on second PC, chose PTS and Play button is active!

    OK. A fresh download completed overnight and the game runs now. If you are still failing download, try uninstalling just the PTS and starting a new download.

    Is this already working? I tried to download it first or second day, when I came back home realized that when it was missing only ~2 GB or so it was paused and had the infamous error. Tried to hit it again and downloaded a few MB but always stopped. And haven't tried again since then.
