How long is the average time for patching this game?

 

I just started it again after the torrent file did not work, it is now at 5% in 30 to 45 minutes. it is running at 50-75kb/s. Any estimates on time?

    Are you just patching from an already full install, or did you grab the launcher and are now patching the entire 9 gigs of info?

    I'd highly recommend using a third party host for downloading the full game. I'm guessing you downloaded the installer from the official site in which case you have a large 9 gig patch to download.

    The patch itself is about 1/10th of that. Google might yield some results for you.

    It is at 30% now for this 9GB patch, what you suggest that I do in order to get into the game faster?

    It depends on how fast it's downloading on the patcher. I grabbed it from Fileplanet at around 400kbs, the patch is around a gig though and needs to be done via DF's patcher!

    Hope that helps somewhat,

    The DFO website said downloading through a torrent would be faster. Currently loading it on uTorrent, I literally just started it and its at 3.5%. Running 550kb/s, so this is much faster

    Took me an hour and a half for the full game and patch.

    The torrent can be a bit hit-and-miss, but if it sticks around that speed keep with it!
