As usual, we have the 1.6.1 to 1.7.0 patch available for fast download to our premium members. We've expanded the connections available, so hopefully everyone who wants it will be able to get it before the game servers come back up. To get the patch, go to our download center. If you are not yet a premium member, you can sign up instantly at this link. It is only a few dollars a month and, in addition to the ability to download the patch, you get quite a few additional features, including a 12 month subscription to Computer Gaming World, a 10% discount off MMORPG's at EBGames.com and lots of great extra posting and searching features.
