This is just by searching #aeolus from past few days with the text in the topic, 95% of the results are answers to people having problems with getting the game to launch via FAF.
Just guesstimations but maybe 50-70% more from this amount could be found too with different words, basically every five minutes someone has this problem. How many can't get it fixed and don't ask about it in #aeolus? :?

Fixing this should be the number one priority before releasing any more patches, however since it has been broken for four months and new patches keep being released I can only assume that you do not understand the importance of this. It's not like these patches contain anything great either, looking through the patchnotes all I see are some minor fixes that rarely come into effect, some minor UI changes that hardly matter (and are often disliked by many people), and some nice gameplay features (but most of those are taken from EQ anyway). If you compare the downside of making hundreds of people unable to play the game and potentially quitting FAF with the upsides of some minor fixes and changes it should be obvious that patching the game has a net negative effect as long as the patch delivery system is broken. And it is just common sense that before you push an update you should have a functional delivery method for it, right?

I do appreciate that the devs try to do good by continually releasing patches, but the way I see it the patches do more harm than good. No new player is going to join FAF because of some minor bugfix patch, but some players will certainly quit because of their game being broken. I personally would rather have no patches unless they are absolutely necessary to fix something game breaking, but since I see no way to stop the devs from making more patches then it is absolutely critical that the delivery system be fixed to stop this nightmare from happening over and over with each patch.
