Same... It was due to the whole pre-load thing. I'm guessing a lot more people are in the same boat. Makes me want to go re-download it through steam though =p..
I'm tempted.
I didn't download through trion because of the predownload thing. I didn't even know it was an option to be completely honest. I actually had both patchers running, and Trion completed first. So I cancelled the steam download.
