    I'm trying to patch the client and it gets stuck on Step 3 of 6 then hangs at 'client version 95: 0% Download: 0 kb/sec

    any ideas? I'd rather not install the steam client because of the $45 thing

    When I run the stand-alone patch, I get a similar result occasionally, where the patcher just locks up. Try right-clicking on the icon and running it as an Administrator. You can also try disabling the P2P setting in the patcher; its possible that this might cause issues depending on the ISP/network.

    If you have a SotA account, you can log in on the website and get a Steam key. You don't have to pay twice.

    This seems to be a widespread problem this time around. I'm trying to upgrade from 302 to 303 and the "downloading" message stays at 0% and nothing downloads. I do have a Steam account but I'd rather not have to use it.

    Thanks. I'll try it a few more times.. tried doing the run as administrator but no dice. maybe my antivirus conflicting with it I'll check into that too.

    There are a lot of people unable to patch with the standalone client.

    Patching via Steam is working.

    I just read that Star Citizen is having the same issue, and the root cause is actually a problem with Amazon's CDN unable to serve up the patch files.

    bummer. on an unrelated note - are they still going with with 'dragging icons around and stacking them' while trying to PvP game mechanic? that seemed pretty clunky to me.

    Yes and no.

    You can do a locked bar and not have to do any of that.

    If you want combos with the random glyphs it is easier and quicker to press R to initiate a combo and then press the hotkeys for the abilities you want to combine. No one needs to drag icons around at all.
