Every minute that passes by your thread title becomes more and more wrong! xD
Hurray patch time! I should be happy but I was playing :( lol Time to watch Game of Thrones!
now its 11:48am here on East Coast...cant wait
It'll still be a 2+ hour wait until we can play again anyway. lol
Game of Thrones is now on season 3, which is covering the first half of edit*(Still having my coffee xD) A Storm of Swords (the third book in Ice and Fire) I'm a massive fan. I could ramble for hours about all of it. xD
The author has said in interviews that he'l write until he's physically or mentally no longer able to, and that the series isn't finished. :D The 6th book "The Winds Of Winter" and final book "A Dream of Spring" are listed as "Forthcoming".
There will be a collection of short stories that take place in the same universe but about unrelated characters at some point, look it up if you need more. :P
edit*: Sorry, I know that couldn't be any less related to Defiance. lol
2 hour downtime then how long to actually patch?
I don't know how we got on this but game of thrones is in third season hence third book a storm of swords feast of crows is fourth book
lol, sorry I saw someone say they are going to watch GoT, I had read the 5 books an own the 1st season. I am an devourer of good books, an GoT pulled me in fast, the only other series that did that was Death Gate Cycle (think there was 7 books to it), sorry for going off topic on your post OP. but yes how long is the patch an do I have to have my ps on now? just thought of that.
Is it for xbox as well? and how long have they been down thus far?
West Coast here and ready! Over!....
I am pretty excited about this patch. It seems like this game could stick around a while if it gets a little love.
As far as GOT goes, I loved the series but stopped reading after Feast for Crows which was, in my opinion, one of the most boring books ever written in the English language. I get the feeling that George Martin kind of let the story get away from him.
the Patch has been released to the world!!! mawhahahahahahaha *cough* *cough*
Anyone know how big (size-wise) the patch will be?
Agree with you on the game's potential to stick around and on Feast for Crows. However, I'd recommend giving A Dance With Dragons a shot. It got me back into the series after I was down on it a bit after Feast. I'm not sure GRRM let the story get away from him, rather he made promises he couldn't keep due to his schedule and other commitments getting away from him imo.
Ah True. Of course when DCU Online updates Its starts patching immediately after the title is downloaded. Of course even DCUs title updates can be as big as the patch itself sometimes. Sure felt like it anyways last week.
So much for my 100 MBPS internet connection. Im downloading at .57 MB/Sec
General you stopped reading too early I completely agree feast of crows was rather slow I won't go as far as say it was bad just because of the ending (when the ***** gets her up and comings). But. Dance with Dragons was great I couldn't put it down and I definitely recommend picking it back up and trying again. As far as the series goes I sure hope George RR Martin finishes it before something happens to that guy, isn't he like 80 now.
I am downloading the patch now. AS I TYPE THIS. Very exciting. Also, I am excited about the fact that I am just about to go and get a steak burrito!
When you guys that are DLing the patch already get done, please let us know the file size and about how long it took for your connection. I won't be able to DL it for another 5 hours when I get home from work. Arrrggh!
I saw something that said "22 MB" I wonder if that's the size for the entire patch or only a certain step in the patching process.
Well, I didn't know about the patch til I tried to play today at about 9:30am PST (12:30pm where I'm at in MI). It said there was an update for the title, and took me out of Defiance to handle that. It downloaded/installed very quickly (<2 minutes), and now I'm just waiting for the server to finish its patch. I'll update after I get on and know more about any more steps.
Edit: Patch took about 9 minutes @ roughly 1mb/sec to download, 1 minute to install.
I'm patching ingame now. Supposed to take almost 5 min to download at roughly 2mb/s (according to the timer)
Looks like I'm good to go. The whole thing took about ten, maybe fifteen, minutes. Servers are still down though.
GoT does get boring at some...anywho, I will not go there. Great read. go to off topic to talk of this, just made it. Sorry OP...anywho, thanks for the help with the info on the patch. going to dl now.
Not sure the file size but it took me 6 mins to download on a 15mb connection and 2 minutes to install.
