Glorious Alpha Two Testers!

We are in the Alpha Two Phase II testing which will take place 5+ days each week.

Alpha Two testing is scheduled to happen daily until January 13, 2025 at 10PM PT. We will have periods of downtime for hotfixes and daily restarts happening at 2 AM PT for NA realms, and 2 CET for EU realms.

Starting next week, Alpha Two realms are scheduled to be online for 5+ days a week from Thursdays at 10 AM PT to Mondays at 10 PM PT. Alpha Two realms are planned to be down on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, and for daily restarts. Alpha Two realms will also be brought down as updates and fixes are ready.

You can download the game launcher here and we encourage you to join us on our Official Discord Server for the most up to date testing news.

Launcher is impossibly slow when hit with an update

Anytime the launcher is trying to download / install the game or an update, it is *VERY* slow compared to others. Everyone else seem to take 5 minutes or less while I take hours. I tried contacting support and gave them my logs, and instead of reading what I said and taking a look at the logs, they hit me with a copy pasta that didn't address my ticket at all.

The most glaring thing I saw in my logs was that the launcher gets stuck in a loop stating the following:
2024-11-09 16:11:23.9686|INFO|Patcher.HasPendingTasksAsync|Checking if there are pending tasks: False
2024-11-09 16:11:23.9686|INFO|Patcher.CheckDriveSpace|Checking if downloaded space (1886106) is sufficient for cached space needed (49876651)
2024-11-09 16:11:23.9686|INFO|Patcher.CheckDriveSpace|Remaining needed: 47990545, Available space: 75357069312
2024-11-09 16:11:23.9686|INFO|Patcher.CheckDriveSpace|Sufficient disk space available

If someone from the team could at least tell me this was seen and will be addressed, I would greatly appreciate this. I kind of expected better from Intrepids support.

    I'm having the same issue. Even when it is "installed," the "file operations" takes forever and won't complete; the installer/launcher just crashes before it can complete.

    Been having this issue as well since day 1 of alpha2 launch. If I decide to update the game files, my computer is effectively worthless for 2-3 hours as it crawls through the install. I'm currently on hour 2 of updating for phase2 launch and file operations is only at 41%.

    as I type this, I went through the options of patching and set the limit to 6 concurrent processes, which significantly sped up the file operations, but still is causing my computer to have issues with stuttering. It was set at 3, but setting it to 6 has increased the speed at least.
