No kidding!! I've tried damn near everything and the download continues from 99 to 80-82 percent every single time. What also irritates me is that the last 8 or so months BF3 has stopped working as well and causing crashes anywhere from 5-20 minutes ingame regardless if its 16 or 64 people playing and i never got a solution for that either, while most other people who also had the problem said to slightly underclock your GPU. But now all that crap happened on my old PC and I just recently built a new one and it has run every game just fine but i bet if i was to down reload battlefield 3 (which i will right now) I put my $ on it crashing at some point with same or similar error.
