Did they fix the updater?

Now that many don't log in or quit, your download speed should be fine.

That's quite the opposite of P2P lol.

I've never had any issues with the downloader. Tonight I had a good speed and was done within 3-5 min if even that.

Sorry you're having issues.

You may be having quite a bit more problems if it doesn't even start for you.

Dont troll me with your level 11 pug account. its probably you main account actualy.

Cmon.... hurry up and download so i can get off these stupid forums.

Never had a problem. My stuff downloads in like 3 minutes every time.

Updater is just as terrible as it always has been for me. Really is a dealbreaker for me when it takes hours to download patches. Ports are open, firewall gets disabled while I patch, tried everything and the updater still sucks.

This is how you get off the forums:



And if you're too lazy to do that, click the X located in the top right of your browser:



Learn to use it and no one is trolling you (you used troll incorrectly), look at the post above yours, if you have issues starting a downloading it's on your end.

As always it's a mixed bag. A friend of mine cannot get the update at all, either through the updater or through utorrent.

Can anyone please grab the .patch file that gets downloaded to the Documents\My Games\FINAL FANTASY XIV\downloads\ffxiv\48eca647\patch folder and upload it to somewhere? I almost instinctively said megaupload but I forgot they got partyv&'d.

Edit: Be sure to grab it before you start patching. The FFXIV updater deletes the patch file after it finishes patching. :/

If someone else doesn't do it by time I get back inside sure, since it was only 48mb so mediafire should do just fine.

Actually, is there a way to force the updater to re-download the update? I remember it involved editing some file so that it didn't have the same version number as the current update to make the game "think" it requires an update. Don't remember offhand the specifics of it.

If it doesnt work for you use a torrenting program, dont go online to look for a link because that is fairly unsafe u can get the magnet link of the patch file from your game when u just first start up the updater, u find it in your
Documents >> mygames >> FFXIV >> downloads >> FFXIV >> 48eca647 >> metainfo, that is where your magnet link is

here is a video to show you how to do it
