Gonna take about 4 hours to download the patch with this speed, which is not normal even for patchdays. Usually get much much better speed than that from GOA so im wondering if something isnt wrong with the patch servers - or maybe thousands of people are returning for the patch :eek6:

It's because not all the patch servers are up yet. Normally there are 6 servers to spread the load however it takes around 2 hours to upload the files to each one so we are turning them on one by one as they are updated. When they are all up and running, patch speeds should go much faster.

its the same every patch. The servers get hammered and will go slow.

Thought ppl would have gotten used to it by now.
