Update Congestion

[Juilan]

Well I'm down to 588 files to go on my second machine now doing the SE download.
So I should hopefully make it in for 7-pm UK time. Nothing going wrong from now.

That download is confusing me that a few people are referring to.
I downloaded it. And it says on the site "Drag the contents of the zip into C:\Program Files (x86)\PlayOnline\SquareEnix"
Well the contents of the zip is a folder called strangely enough FINAL FANTASY XI.
Which surprise surprise, I already have a folder with the same name in my \SquareEnix folder.

So I am being told to basically overwrite my 10.4GB folder with the downloaded one containing 1509 files totaling 844MB guys?
You must think I was born yesterday :/
What are the actual proper instructions with what to do with this download please?

One action, merge all.

Was anyone else amused by the annoucement that the problem had been "resolved" (i.e. most people had finished the download) and the subtle implication that they'd actually fixed something?

You're wrong, an ISDN would just queue us getting rid of the 1160 error.

That really wasn't the point!

Then they'll hope we forget about it till next update when the exact same thing happens all over again.
