What? I got modded because of that? Really? This place is getting strict.

Anyway on topic, it took a long time for me as well. It stuck at some percentage, I turned it off, and the next time I turned it on it was done somehow. Magic.

I gave up trying to play it. I'd set it downloading for hours one weekend, and then not get time to play it until sometime in the week when another hours long patch was ready to download.

Seems to me that they are doing a full title update for each of the major patches. Probably a compatibility issue with the current build of the game. It's a pain to have to wait for it to update, but it is a beta which means it is a privilege for you to get to help them test the game, not simply an opportunity for you to play it before others, and all betas have their bumps in the road.

It really sucks, mine took about 1:20 minutes today but at least they extended the hours a lot. Again tomorrow, so thats a plus.

But the updates are pretty big, I first started the beta back in early september and I can clearly see the difference. And I think it takes longer to level up now. I switched to SVER after both Raven and Valor runs and had a blast today.

Can't wait for this game to come out.

Man, I dont know what takes so long either, However I am waiting patiently as I just reserved the game and was given this. So I am going to give Demon Souls a break and try this out!

Wise decision. MAG is really not that great.
