    Default Was there two patches released today?

    SO after the worlds came back up I updated the client as usual, logged in, and played for a while.

    I joined and LFM for Detour, played for a bit, froze and game client crashed.

    Now I am waiting for about 8,700 game files to download before I can again re-log back in.

    SO my question is, after the initial hotfix that was deployed today, was a second patch or hotfix deployed AFTER the worlds came back up? Because now I am sitting at about 30% way of downloading 8,786 game files AFTER the inital hotifx was applied to my system and had logged in and played for a bit.

    It is highly doubtful that there was a second patch. It seems much more likely that a checksum or version number did not update correctly and it threw the launcher back into update and patch mode. Hopefully it will get it right the second time. It would be a shame to have to update every time you want to play.

    Might have something to do with highRes mode, because after the crash, I was prompted to run in high res mode and clicked yes, and had to download a single file (client_highres.dat. filsesize 2663 MB). I changed the launcher options to not use high res and had to download ~9,000 files. (Strange that the hotifx was only about 560 files after the worlds came back up)

    so I got tired of waiting, turn the high res back on and now back to downloading the other file, so either in high res or not, I need to update more files. WIll be patient and wait it out for the client_highres.dat file to download...

    Good thing my internet plan has unlimited bandwidth or I would be not too happy right now...
