<p>OK so after nearly 6 years of doing other games I have upgraded computer and want to try EQ2 again. I begin to download the huge 12,5 GB client and it works somewhat OK up until about 3-4 GB where it suddenly and for no apparant reason starts to have issues... Been at this for 2 days now and I have to constantly restart the download because of this;</p><p><span style="font-size: small;"><strong>An error occured trying to access EverQuest II® Extended.Error Code: 1002</strong></span></p><p>I still have almost 4 GB to go and I can't get those now!</p><p>My internet is at about 2.5 - 4 MB/s and this is getting nuts. It shows up every few mins now and I have to klick "OK" followed by "Update". Then it resumes again... for a short bit... I can't do this, I have better things to do then babysit an erratic downloader all day long! Other applications such as streaming radio and similar things continue going so the internet is just fine. This is your downloader & hosting that is messed up. You should let us <strong><em>use torrents</em></strong> for these size downloads instead. They are much more reliable and resume by themselves.</p><p>I -was- going to return to EQII® but Now after reading this forum and seeing loads of people with similar issues... I'm not so sure I want that frustration. SOE used to be OK. One thinks after the recent events they would have learned how to do stuff right.</p><p>What are you going to do about it SOE? - Oh and one more thing! Why can't I pay with PayPal??? Do you really think I'm willing to put in a card number after what has been going on lately? Think again...</p>
