Why is the patch/update system -still- broken?

[chime85]

Yea mine says it requires 2 more hours -.- does the old way of doing things not work anymore, where I download the patch through a torrent? I can't find the patch file in my FFXIV folder anymore what gives? this is taking forever.

you can find the torrent files in C:/ [user]/My documents/My games/Finalfantasy XIV/downloads/ffxiv/48eca647/metainfo

you can torrent straight from there, this particular patch is D2011.04.13.0000

I hope that helps you out

ps: once you have downloaded the torrent file, copy that file (on your torrent window, right click the torrent and select "open containing folder"). copy the file in that folder, then go to C:/ [user]/My documents/My games/Finalfantasy XIV/downloads/ffxiv/48eca647/PATCH and replace that file.

run ffxiv as you usually would, grin as it installs
