Hi ccp … is there anyway for you to stop spam patch. I mean each week i almost have 1Giga to download for MINOR features. With my 256ko/s i spend more time downloading patches … then playing. The worse it gets, I don’t even make the effort to download these painful patches anymore. I prefer to stop client and i do not play anymore … i have others game to play. I’m really starting to get fed up ---

My EVE shared cache had ballooned to over 70GB (not a typo!) - so I had to manually purge it and re-download the client (~4.5GB). It’s now downloading the rest of the files (~30GB). No idea what the other ~35GB was supposedly being used for. Come on CCP - get your sh\*t together already. ---

If that is the case, it would be really nice if CCP mentioned that in the patch notes. Maybe not every day but something along the lines of “feature will be continually updated as item hand-ins progress” or something like that. ---

CCP have left a lot of things out of patch notes btw, I’ve found quite a few new things recently like the new data site in pochven didn’t see it at all on patch notes. The reward is still meh thou lol 10mil for 10min work 😕 what is with this 60/h nonsense it wont get anyone out of bed or excited for. ---

Yeah, would be nice. I won’t stop daydreaming about free content. In the meantime: Another 132MB patch without a patch notes entry. 🤷 ---

> [@Icarius](#): > > With my 256ko/s i spend more time downloading patches I don’t see any mini-patches downloading so it may be due to some setting, try the Download Full Client option shown by Resonance. You could also try leaving the launcher running overnight so it can potentially download updates while nothing else is going on. ---
