You should be thankful for ppl willing to help one another by using BTą blizzard on the other hand thought it would be cool to write there own BT client and made it that it pretty much maximized the uploadą of course killing most ppls connections and you would never go past like 10k/s but be caped on your uploadą
Here in EVE they gave an alternative, true third party and didnĘt put any restrictions at allą I use bittornado or whatever its called and it was great I only waited like 15-20min at 100-120k/s I think I saw like at one point over 50 seedsą
I tried to d/l from the site but it was at best 20k/s and lower.
I donĘt understand why they didnĘt put up on other major sites the patch thoughą it would have been SOO much better for themą but in this case BT worked greatą were in many other cases it sucked so bad that ppl hated itą example blizzard in WOW

bit torrent is a truly inginiouse piece of software

See that, Stron3h?
I'm downloading via BT at a very nice speed and people are uploading the file at the same as I am downloading it.
Minimum strain on the Eve servers and a reduction in server lag.
Handy eh?
LEEEEERRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY! |

Well call it whining, call me names but this doesnt work at all!
Spending just so much time and getting time outs simply isnt fun, to find that im unable to start from scratch is worse since the server seems to try to pick up at the point of the last timeout.
Last and but not final, its a fileformat that im unable to patch with since its not the regular one.
Amicus: I dont want 'better' treatment than anyone else - only to be able to download the patch period.
Mirror with a normal patchable fileformat ASAP please!

Your complaint comes from your own lack of forethought and lack of flexibility.
You made your bed, now sleep in it.
Maybe lack of flexability - yes, But care to explain the forethought? If I couldn't be near my PC to download it was I supposed to put my life on hold?
Please, we'll stop this right here. No one actaully understands the point I'm driving at, so further discussion is pointless.
So CCP is supposed to put their lives on hold to cater to your needs? If your life is so important that you couldn't click a download link that day, then I'm sure you can wait another bloody day for the lag to simmer down. Sorry, your 15 $ a month doesn't make you special.

Is this one also through BT?
I'm not very good in this I admit, but BT is very fast once you installed it, at first it is a bit slow because it finds more people from who it can download. After that it speeds up, a lot.

Thank you Eris Discordia, that appear to be a normal file.
I did download some torret thing yesterday, but it seems to have caused nothing but problems in my case.
May this work better *holds thumbs*

Can someone please explain why it would appear, that in order to get a patch for a game that I pay for?
You may pay the monthly subscription, but you didn't pay for the patch.
Other mmorpgs just release big expansions like this in retail format, making you spend $30 or so just so you can upgrade. Maybe if CCP started charging for the big expansions (Kali being the next one), they would have sufficient funding to set up seperate hosting servers.
Until that time, since your getting it for free, there's nothing really you can complain about. They have provided mirrors, and for those with slow/unreliable connections, you can use bittorrent. If you don't want to use bittorrent, that's fine, just wait until tommorow when the server load eases up a bit and you'll get better download rates.

Can someone please explain why it would appear, that in order to get a patch for a game that I pay for, I am forced to use third party software and bandwidth? (and no I'm not going to use BT, I fail to why i should have to)
Isn't your browser or ftp-client a third party software, aswell as a bittorrent-client?
Or maybe you use the in-game browser to download the patch...? |

The patch and full client were made available for download when Tranquility was taken off-line for the Exodus deployment. More mirrors and other download options were added as the demand increased.
This thread has run its course, as have the other "Can't download/patch" threads.
