Whenever I try to download the game, after about 2 hours I get the message:
"Failed to download versions. Patch aborted"
Note that I have downloaded about 4GB at this time.
I tried the official client and the steam client once each.
Anyone else having troubles?
Yeah, having problems with the launcher also.
I am probably going to wait a few days for Trion to (hopefully) get the patcher up to snuff and i'll drag my computer over to my brothers place and use his internet, which is much faster than mine.
I'm getting this as well. I noticed that the patcher still had my e-mail in it as if it's been saved somewhere since the alpha/beta. I made sure to delete any folders, uninstall everything, etc. and it still remembers my e-mail login. I notice my patcher version is lower than my girlfriend's version which seems to run just fine.
I tried copying her entire folder and I still have the older patcher version. Is there somewhere that patcher is hiding?
Im having the same issue, this is a total failure of a game "launch"
I thought they did that last beta 3 to pre-game for the release date and make sure it all works properly... and come the release date which wasn't even at midnight... their **** doesn't work? Wtf~!!!? I am about to give up on this game if it isn't fixed by tomorrow. $140 paid to pre-order for a game I can't even play... Unacceptable.
I got it about 80% downloaded last night, had a half hour left, but I had to go to bed. Today, it's downloading the whole thing again, at an absolute snail's pace of .06MB per sec. Current download time, 1 day 5 hours.
Bloody shambles, can't believe these are the same guys who did Rift.
Same here. I've been trying to download this ****ing thing for five days now only to have it start over every time they decide to mess with it. Speed drops out and is sitting on four days remaining. Which I'm sure won't be the last time it screws up.Originally Posted by Sleepery
Same damn thing! Failed to download versions, patch aborted!!!
I purchased the game on steam. Couldn't pre-load for whatever reason. Downloaded the like 4 mb file on steam in a minute on release day. However when I tried to patch it through the launcher either the estimations/download speed would be outrageous or it would act somewhat normal with a day or so of an estimate and then halfway through crash, after going through several loading bars of "fetching versions file". The ending message was typically " failed to download versions". I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times as well as contacted Trion in email and attempted to live chat; with no luck. I am severely displeased.
Anyone have any new information or fixes for this problem? I have 2 computers, one on Windows 7 and another on Windows 8. The windows 7 had this problem then magically fixed itself when i left it on with the patcher open overnight. The Windows 8 Machine howerver continues to have this problem and I havent received any information from Trion about it. Looks like were going to have to figure it out ourselves.
