Anaesha Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 Like stated all servers are up 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.
KOMAAK Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 Its a day of downtime for a lot of people. I think we deserve to be compensated, since we are paying to play the game.
Jcargan Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 Its a day of downtime for a lot of people. I think we deserve to be compensated, since we are paying to play the game. FUnny my server list still syas all are down
flankster Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 servers might be up but patcher is stuck initalising
Michaelmccr Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 still didn't work for me so i had to reinstall but now its messing about and now it saying for the past 16 minutes launcher is being updating please wait....... well that tells me that they fixed it. not.
ForceOfFinland Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 (edited) Guys i see that percantage of installation progress grows at my monitor, but in 1 hour it moved from 93,15% to only 93,2!? Am i the only one with such problem? Edited November 17, 2015 by ForceOfFinland
NeuroticCupcake Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 (edited) 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. Oh no, not a lack of compensation! The horror! The anguish! The inability-to-read-the-terms-of-use-on-your-part! So, let's assume that you ignore the fact that you agreed to be okay with unexpected downtime when you signed the digital contract to play the game. At a little less than $15/month for a subscription (if you go with the most expensive 30 day option), that's almost $0.50 a day, or less than $0.02 an hour. Man, imagine what you could do with less than a dime worth of compensation!!! Edited November 17, 2015 by NeuroticCupcake
Katana_Grey Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 hm.. the yare up, launcher says it is 100% installing updating complete... buut nothing more - button PLAY is not avaluble( rel line a tht ebottom of launcher is stuck at these 100%...
NRieh Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 (edited) They are, but the patches are still (somewhat) broken. I've been waiting for several minutes already... (it says 'updating' with no visible progress) Edited November 17, 2015 by NRieh

Am i the only one with such problem? 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.
Neo_Psy Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 (edited) Great, time to start downloading a fraction of 1% for a few hours again. Edited November 17, 2015 by Neo_Psy
tmwfte Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 Oh no, not a lack of compensation! The horror! The anguish! The inability-to-read-the-terms-of-use-on-your-part! So let's see, it's what, $15/month for a subscription (if you go with the most expensive 30 day option)? That's about $0.50 a day, or $0.02 an hour. Man, imagine what you could do with less than a dime worth of compensation!!! If the amount is so trivial, surely the multi-million dollar corporation can eat it instead of their customers, right?
Negazione Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 I'm happy the server finally are up....for you all,I downloaded EVE one more time cya!!!
TheFishDJ Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 Great that the servers are back up but ... how about fixing the DL? I'm still at 93.51 and not moving
Przemo_No Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 mine did not even start. Just stated: "check your netwok connection" and I have 100 MB/s. Sooo..... Definitely no SWTOR tonite. Good, will try to play forgotten Witcher 3
Anaesha Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 Great that the servers are back up but ... how about fixing the DL? I'm still at 93.51 and not moving Read my post at the top.
TrickyNinja Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 Yeah it is supposedly "back up" but launcher still stuck at initializing. Great.
TheFishDJ Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 Oh and now they've closed their thread lol
Krikos Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 Slow Patch Downloading, right........this patch will prolly be finished by next week, just in time for their next slow patch.

Man, imagine what you could do with less than a dime worth of compensation!!! I was thinking the same thing. Congratulations on your part, you're the only one in this thread not QQ'ing. The sense of entitlement here is overwhelming.
TheFishDJ Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 Go to hell. (BW you can ban me for another 7 days I don't care) I've been in Many MMOs where they compensate their paying customers for unexpected downtime Thanks but I'm not messing about with all that
tmwfte Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 Oh and now they've closed their thread lol Because in their mind "everything's fixed". It's now 4:30 in Austin, time to close up shop and go home soon, so let's pretend it's fixed and call it a day.
AetherShanty Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 hm.. the yare up, launcher says it is 100% installing updating complete... buut nothing more - button PLAY is not avaluble( rel line a tht ebottom of launcher is stuck at these 100%... Same for me..
oneupkev Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 (edited) Great that the servers are back up but ... how about fixing the DL? I'm still at 93.51 and not moving 93.74 for me, just not moving at all. i know it said not to restart the launcher but 15 minutes of not moving is tempting me to restart reckon it's safe to play fallout4 during this wait?
