If it's a mobile computer, like a laptop, you could try downloading it elsewhere. It might just be a case of a really bad ISP. I've seen other communities make "alternative" patchers, but your results may vary, and saying anything more about them could be a violation of forum rules.
If I had better upload speeds myself, I'd upload mine for you to try.Â
...is this the only computer that has patching problems? (Or if you have a spare laptop, it might help to install the game, patch it at a friend's house or so, and copy the folder back using an external hard drive or something)
It's a desktop. My laptop is very old, possibly even nearing the end of its lifespan. I'm going to buy a new one for college soon, but I plan on buying an ultrabook, not a high end gaming laptop, too expensive.
Could an ultrabook suffice as an alternative to download the patches?
