Fooking Patches :lay:

It drives me up the fucking wall when you spend a few hours downloading a game and when you click start you have to wait another cunting hour for the fucker to patch. UPDATE YOUR FUCKING DOWNLOAD WITH THE PATCHED VERSION YOU PRICKS!!!! :irate: :irate: :irate: :irate: :irate:
Outside the ordered universe is that amorphous blight of nethermost confusion which blasphemes and bubbles at the center of all infinity—the boundless daemon sultan Azathoth, whose name no lips dare speak aloud, and who gnaws hungrily in inconceivable, unlighted chambers beyond time and space amidst the muffled, maddening beating of vile drums and the thin monotonous whine of accursed flutes.

It's not just games, I have some high dollar graphics software that did the same thing. I guess they don't know how to build the program except by adding the patches until the next major release? :dunno:

Yeah, I feel this... I went to play Star Trek Online there yesterday after downloading 10 entire GIGAbytes of files for the freaking thing and then finally once it was downloaded and installed, I fired it up and the stupid launcher decides to spend 45 minutes downloading and patching almost 1GB of files. I stalked away as calmly as possible and killed some pasta with fire...
