♥♥♥ Now when I get the game tomorrow... Today... Whichever, I can load right in! .. Pretty much. Big Grin

Danke!


Re: Direct Retail Patch Downloads - Hiyoshroom - 09-21-2010

Thank you very much :3


Re: Direct Retail Patch Downloads - Freyar - 09-21-2010

I compressed the two patches with an intact file structure for now. We'll see how it goes.

EDIT: I'm currently seeing either a lot of usage (which is good), or my QOS settings aren't tweaked right. Either way I'm looking at averages of 500ms. No big deal since I intend to go to bed, but I'll be looking into that later tomorrow as I get my copy of FFXIV.


Re: Direct Retail Patch Downloads - Rakoh - 09-22-2010

I can't seem to get thatlink to work. Shame because the download on the patcher is going to take at least 20 hours according to the timer ;_;


Re: Direct Retail Patch Downloads - DAISHI - 09-22-2010

Thanks for this!


Re: Direct Retail Patch Downloads - Aveline - 09-22-2010

Thanks Freyar! Smile


Re: Direct Retail Patch Downloads - Freyar - 09-22-2010

I may be seeing a massive amount of traffic on the FTP server. I'm working on it the best I can for now.


Re: Direct Retail Patch Downloads - Chveya - 09-22-2010

Is it possible (via you, or anywhere else currently hosting it) to download these files BEFORE having the game? For those of us not loading in till the 30th?


Re: Direct Retail Patch Downloads - Rakoh - 09-22-2010

Been trying to get the patches from the sverver all day and nothing happens, connection just times out.

*sigh* 13.9% done after 12 hours of downloading. I hate the Squeenix patcher -_-

I don't know if you can see this post without registering on the forums, but try it.

So many alternatives, and you're using the SE patcher? Gaaah.

Re: Direct Retail Patch Downloads - Rakoh - 09-22-2010

Problem with torrenting is that it's not much faster since there are rarely any peers sharing the file considering the game just came out today ^^;; . Ending up with a download and upload rate of 3.6kb/s on both the patcher and the torrent because there are only 10 people seeding will do that X_X

There are more than 10 people.

You can't assume the download rate you have when you first start, is the download rate you'll have when you're in the middle, or at the end.

Most people -- people like me, for example -- only allow X number of people to be downloading off of them at once. If there's 9 people in line, and you're the 10th, and I'm only allowing 2 downloads at once, you have to wait your turn.

Fire up the torrent, and wait and hour. I can almost guarantee it'll be going faster. But don't try to run the SE patcher and the torrent at the same time. Yikes.

Looks like the physical hardware ended up in a hardlock. It should be up and running now.


Re: Direct Retail Patch Downloads - Boots - 09-22-2010

I cannot for the life of me get this to work, and I've put the first file in the right folder.

I canceled the first patch at 31%, could that be why?
