Has anyone else come across this starting today? Game launcher for me has sat at "patching" for a little while now but hasn't started any download

Patching took me 1 hour this morning.

You could see the progress though, 1 KB at a time.

There were a lot of changes in S7. The patch is HUGE and while I patched this afternoon, it still took me around 10 to 20 minutes to patch up totally.

My advice, once patching starts, find a good book or some STO threads to read - rofl.

It's a huge patch, and equally huge numbers of people are all trying to grab it at once. We're lucky the patch server is even still online at all.

Hey, could be worse: I can't even get the launcher to load.

Thanks for responses guys. it's going now. floodgate opened
