Nothing under Special Notices though, which is exactly what the initial Lodestone post mentioned. I imagine the web team is just lagging behind on pushing the notice.
Either way, hope it's just a minor delay/issue for the Steam patching OP, and that you'll be able to update before the start of early access.

But for some reason the update is just not working. I keep getting the error message on the title. Unable to update patch files [11006] [20819] [20831] [19900] [23]

I've tried everything. I deleted the game and reinstalled it. I rebooted my PC. Tried to launch the game in admin mode, tried to launch steam (I play the steam version) in admin mode. I shut down my window's firewall, disabled my antivirus, deleted folder 4e9a232b from the installation folder. And more. Nothing works.

I need help. I pre-ordered Dawntrail PRECISELY to play the Early Access. If I have to miss it because of this stuff I'm going to be pretty crushed.

Might try a VPN to bypass your providers protocols.

That could solve the issue if it's a CDN problem. But if the issue is the CDN being hammered by users updating the game, just trying later could solve it.
It's still good to let the devs know about these things.

The official launcher is such a pain. It shouldn’t restart at zero whenever there is an interruption. It’s a bit funny that the community has found a solution to this that also allows for patching corrupted files when an error occurs in game instead of reinstalling the full game as SE suggests.

It’s especially bad for people with slow connections. Not every part of the world has fibre and unlimited internet access.

Already did, post hasn't even been seen once.

I'm pretty dismayed there doesn't seem to be any way to get some sort of official response or customer support. I'm on the verge of a panic attack at the thought of missing out Early Access because of this issue. I even spent most of my vacation days at work to make sure my schedule was freed up.

I'm hoping that they're just delaying the deployment of the steam version, because I'm really worried I'll miss the early access due to this error.

Nope I play on Steam and Steam version is available

Did you try rebooting your router? That one thing alone has caused me problems before due to the OS on it crashing and producing restricted internet in unpredictable ways.

The other thing I often suggest is going to Documents\My Games\FINAL FANTASY XIV - A Realm Reborn and editing the FFXIV_BOOT.cfg so that BootVersionCheckMode is set to 1. If it's already 1, changing it to 0 instead. Just making it different, but personally I set it to 1.

I had to do a full redownload of the game for it go through properly after several minutes of trying to resume a download that had stopped at around 80%.

It seems to be some archaic launcher issue given complaints about the same error date back to 2.0.

If a file is corrupt, unfortunately it often is necessary to just redownload the game because the launcher can't properly do checksum scans or something like that. Also unfortunately, corruption is going to be more likely with an SSD due to limited read/write cycles.
