I'm on a terrible Internet connection and it doesn't take 30 minutes. Also, did you know you can patch during downtime?

Patches are good. With the last one I find the in game browser to be snappier!

Micro-patches > one bigarsed monthly patch that breaks more than it fixes. With the micro-patches if they break something they can fix it in a matter of days, rather than spend weeks digging through a huge patch to see where they went wrong and then fix it.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

Because of fixes that otherwise would break your lovely home world.

Oh look, someone else complaining about the game being made better.
What the **** is wrong with your internet or computer that it takes 30 minutes to update?
I started the launcher when I began writing this post and it was already done updating by the time I had finished my second sentence.

Enjoying the rain today? ;)

Pretty much.

Also, you can usually start patching around 11:10 or so even if the server is only up at 11:20-30 since the patch information is published early in the deployment process.

I swear this must be the only game where people complain that the game is getting patched too frequently.

Hey! How come this game gets patched so much! I can't believe this! Why don't you let it stay all crumbly and stuff so we can complain about the bugs? Geez. What's a forum for, anyway? I can't use my most vitriolic remarks if you keep this up CCP!

[sarcasm=Unsuccessful At Everything] CCP HOW DARE YOU CONTINUALLY UPDATE YOUR PRODUCT! ITS A MINOR INCONVIENIENCE AND I WILL NOT STAND FOR IT!

**** it. Im going to start my own game. Ill release an alpha, get you all addicted, and never update it. Ever. Bug fixes? Nope. Hackers on your server? Oh well! Something broken making your game unplayable? Sucks to be you. [/sarcasm]


Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Constant patches mean only poor release management. Take your car for instance and Imagine mechanic is fixing it every day and tells you why do you complain I only make your car/house/health/your wife breasts better.
