Where are they hiding TheGarth??!?

Locked up, in a cage next to the server room. He demands peanuts!

I dont believe it... If they were keeping him next to the server room his magnetic personality would break the servers.

OK OK, he's actually in the mech nursery, wearing a MAD CAT.

Patcher won't start. Tried everything.
Software uninstalled and a new install ...now i am waiting for the download ... 1700 Mb ... more than 2 hours
(with a 100 MBit VDSL line)

Try to fetch this: http://patcher.mwome...aby_PATCHER.jpg

Takes forever due networking issues. Thats why the patcher gives up after some time. Surely an akamai issue - as for some there is no problem due to geobased content delivery.

Workaround:
Add this to your hosts-file (C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc)

Well ... It seems to be a networking problem of a german provider. The patcher worked after a dozend restarts. Just kill the patcher with the taskmanager and restart it until it works.

No, its an akamai issue (content delivery provider used by MWO). See above post.

My patcher worked fine; Though, I had it open before the servers went down, so to see the "patch!" button I had to close and reopen.
