it will take a good while even using SSN so it's best to do it at night or while you'r at work

Don't worry I wasn't going to ask that. Try changing "PatchingMode": "{ \"swtor\": \"BR\" }" to "PatchingMode": "{ \"swtor\": \"SSN\" }" and deleting the Movie and Asset files as well. I didn't have to on my game but each system is different.

did you remember to delete the bitraider folder?

Everyone complaining about their patches not finishing are using the BitRaider version of the client. It's never worked properly with SWTOR. Those of us using the SSN version patched with no issues what so ever.

Read my post at the top.

No anyone using the ST (bitraider) client will be having such issues your best bet is to switch to the SSN client. You can use the below step to switch HOWEVER!!! Doing so will require your client to redownload and patch from the beginning. 1. Close SWTOR 2. Look for the Launcher.settings file located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\BioWare\Star Wars - The Old Republic 3. Open The Launcher.settings file in text editor (I recommend notepad++). 4. Find the line "bitraider_disable" and change it to "true" 5. SAVE if notepad make sure it is saved without .txt tacked on to launcher.settings.txt (Notepad++ auto saves it as the proper file type) 6. Delete the bitraider folder also located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\BioWare\Star Wars - The Old Republic 7, Start launcher and log in. 8. Let the launcher re download and patch. (This can take quite awhile so do it at night when you are going to sleep or during the day while you're at work) 9, Play the game without bitraider.

Yes they are up and BW wont even consider compensating their players for that added 4 hours of downtime. Having said that, I will say that at least it was only 4 hours.

Check your client's lower left corner for the letters ST. The ST means you're using the BitRaider client which is notorious for being crappy at patching. The SSN client is much better at it and faster. Try this. FYI It will require you to redownload and patch the entire game which CAN take a good while. 1. Close SWTOR 2.

I'd call it an H3 myself but that's just me.

They all decided to go play Fallout 4. SW:Battlefront sucks *** if they're playing that they will be disappointing me more then they already have today

They also said all H2s can be done solo with just your comp filling the role of the second. whether that is true for SF remains to be seen.

My comps don't do all the work that's for sure but at the same time I still liked them as they were especially the healer as a marksman sniper since the tank stance is ****ed up atm..

Awhile ago. When I switched from ST I didn't need to change that line.

Jesus I can't even keep up with these topics. I go to read other topics or go to another sub forum and come back and there are two pages to read through

Don't know why SW:Battlefront sucked major *** in the beta. More likely they're playing Fallout 4.

Same I switched from the ST to the SSN version and patching is a breeze.

LOL, Like I said if they want to compensate me I want a full set of Satele's armor in my mail box or they can just auto unlock it in my collections for me that works as well.

If your patch is going slow look at the lower left corner of your client, if you see ST there that means you're using the Bitraider version of the Client to patch and that is your problem. Use these steps to change from the ST client to the SSN client. DISCLAIMER: Doing this WILL require your client to redownload and repatch. 1. Close SWTOR 2.

That's YOUR opinion! What is fun for me, for you, or for anyone else around here wont always match up. Example I like to go to the shooting range once a week and put holes in targets I find that fun While my sister hates shooting guns and prefers crafting as she find it fun. YES I HAVE and I will NEVER do it AGAIN!!

I played Aika for years and I was able to do everything solo and it got even easier when they added lvl scaling to dungeons, I''ve also played Cabal and many other MMOs where I didn't have to talk to or group with people if I chose not to even Wow you don't have to group with people except for raiding..

Let me guess your a Guardian or a Jugg primarily using the tank build right?

That's pretty much what Blizzard did when WoW had unexpected downtime.

The main't was supposed to end at 11 AM CDT it's now 3 PM CDT.

I don't recall BW ever giving their subs compensation for unexpected downtime like WoW used to (don't know if WoW still does that). If BW wants to compensate me I'll take a full set of Satele Shan's armor mailed to me.
