Actually it doesn't do anything, I just see the MWO logo and that's it. And after a very long wait time there's an error message with a timeout or so...

DNS problems again? For the record, I already use google DNS (8.8.8.8) and flushed my cache.

Just a couple of questions - do you have the UAC prompt disabled in Windows? Also, did you install the game to the default location, or a specific one? Finally, what's your OS?

UPDATE - Oh, one last last question - virus scanner?

[627]

UAC disabled
Game is installed in custom folder
Win 7 SP1 64bit

Virus Scanner is windows security essentials


Just tried to download the installer (that 60mb thingy) and i get DL-rate of 2,3kbits...

max Server load?



/edit:

this is the error I get after a while:


(operation timed out)


/edit again:
Ok, whatever you did, it worked, now patching

But I stil have the exact same problem. I deactivated my virus scanner for testing purposes. Task manager labels the clieant as "inactive" and remains there until I stop the process.

i dont get an error message, it just closes the loading screen while its patching and when i reopen it, i have to repatch and it does the same thing over and over again

Are you able to apply the patch successfully using the Repair Tool?

[Tuftedhornet]

right now, it has closed the loading screen 5 times

it will not let me use it, it won't highlight it whenever i put my cursor over it

I have stopped the patching and i am now using the repair tool, i will tell you what happens

[Tuftedhornet]

how long does the repair process take?

At times, a while from personal experience, particularly when it gets to objects.pak

Get stuck the the MWO logo as well:

Win 7 SP1, 64bit
Eset, tried turning virus and firewall off, nadda.

I also deleted the patch folder just in case (backed it up) and three things appeared:

PatcherPatch_30.zip.ab89226f06c37967547f235a395de9b2
patchfiles (empty folder)
patchedfiles (empty folder)

and it eventually times out and asks if I want to retry. 10-15 mins? didn't time it

Hope that helps

Edit: Hit retry after I submitted this and I was let into the patcher. *shrugs* i dunno on this one.
