    I have had the same problem the last two releases...my only two releases since I'm new. I stopped and restarted last release. It warned me not to last time, but I did anyway. It finished the patch, then told me files were missing. I closed down and restarted...it reloaded the entire game...patch 0 to 497 or whatever it was. But it went faster reloading the entire game. Same slow speeds this time so I tried to do what I did last time (several times). No warning. No speed up. Just taking forever. It started in the MB speeds but then always reverted to low kbs by the time I hit step 5/6. I clicked launch game when it still appeared to be uploading and it let me in. No idea if it "finished". No idea what I messed up. My friend goes through Steam. He said it took 15 minutes. My process was probably 24 hours...

    For the latest patch, I tried restarting the launcher... after a couple of tries I also deselected the P2P option and then it got up to 2.35 Mb/s after that. Could be a coincidence though..

    Wow. I normally have 3.6 MB/s (MB not Mb) download for patches. Patch 511 is only doing a maximum of 200 KB/s right now.

    R36 took many hours for me to get (not Steam) and yesterday's patch (509 to 510) that I started at 10:30 pm when I logged in to play was still not finished when I gave up and went to bed at 2:00am (I had to work today). I'm on Google Fiber, so it's not my internet speed. I estimate the 510 patch took about 3 hours or so, but after reading other's experience, I guess I was fortunate.

    I guess I'm lucky after all. Mine still downloads in a matter of minutes even with the 200KB rate.
