 Decided to give EQ2 a try again, i was nicely billed for 14eu. But i cant update it now...

 

It scans files to 100% then just canceles it self, and says: download canceled. I press again, and still its same. And some lp_plugin.exe allways stoping working before scanning, and windose closses it.

They're doing a load of maintenance work at the moment.

Clicky

Beginning at 4:00 AM PST on Tuesday, February 17th, all log-in servers will be undergoing maintenance. During this maintenance you will be unable to log-in to all games and account management tools, and you will be disconnected from the server if you are already logged in. We expect this maintenance to take approximately 30 minutes.

Also on Tuesday, February 17th, from 6:00-8:00 AM PST, SOE Account and Commerce flow, the Station Store, will be unavailable due to maintenance. We expect this maintenance to take approximately 2 hours.

This maintenance session will prevent log-ins, but players who are in-game should stay in game until they zone or otherwise make a request from the session system.

This might also cause some forum accounts to temporarily lose permissions, due to the inability to verify account status while the maintenance is taking place. This is only temporary and normal permissions will return automatically once the maintenance is complete.

We apologize for these interruptions and will resume all affected services as soon as the maintenance is completed.

I used to use the game patcher but the station launcher seems to be more reliable for me

for patching and speed of patching

Yup. I do it :)

On the launcher, go to options - languages, then select English with the US flag next to it - your character slots don't carry across, so it's like having double the amount of slots. Same with Test.

If only things always went that well when I combine alcohol and the internet

Switch easy = yes

Extra patches = very occasionally when they alter in-game text or the like (swapping colour for color as an example)

I'm in England and only have a problem on Antonia Bayle, however it is the most populated server and plenty of US residents complain about the lag there, so it's not a geographical thing.
