Well, when I first downloaded all the updates, it took 2 hours. But that was over 2 months ago.

yea i agree dont play games with dial up but i dunno what can i do misewell dl till this ones done and if anymore take 18hrs its quits till i get cable for this game
I'd suggest starting before you go to bed/school/etc. Just let it run for a bit.
And the smaller servers (Konried/Johari) are actually mostly playable with a 56K. But Emerald, Markov, and Werner are completely out of the question. Truuuust me.
And as they said, you're simply downloading ALL the patches at once. After you finish updating you'll be fine.

Yeah, ull only have to d/l those patches once, then all the patches after that will come one at a time and wont be NEAR as long. Only takes like 30 secs or so on cable.

He must think the patch he is getting now is only one out of however many we had to d.l back in the day. Your d.ling all the patches ever up to now and it will take some time, it takes maybe 45 mins of DSL to do that.

Did you select to download the Core Combat files too?
That is a large additional patch you are downloading also.
