    OK so here's my feedback... when I have a completed patch in my download folder that says 0-5xx ( a full install ), but the latest version is 5xx + 1, but then random failure happens on update, WHY can't the patcher be smart enough to use the Big Fat Full Install That I Already Have, then redownload the incremental?

    Part of the resource work we did this release was so we could rearrange the data to have better control over how the data is arranged and FINALLY FIX THE DAMN PATCHER! :p Only about 2 years late. We got the resource system switched over but didn't get the final few pieces done. We will get it patching better in the next few months but for now it bites and we're sorry. :(

    So that explains the 2.5GB Steam download, then. It could be worse. Star Citizen patches are 30GB in size.

    Hey, but what we lack in size, we make up for in quantity! :) Seriously though, this will improve.
