I completely downloaded the game and I can click play button. When I do, it goes to character selection screen and shows that the game is in quick play mode on 0.00% and that percentage doesn't change with time. I tried re-installing , running repair tool and deleting bitraider folders (game initializes and reorganizes in launcher but when I click play nothing changes). Its completely the same problem as on the picture. That guy had the same problem I have right now, but it didn't get answered. Please help!

@TheBlackWolfSWX Delete the entire bitraider folder , it will recreate on the next game launch

@TheBlackWolfSWX The only other file that may have an indication on what is occuring is in the bitraider folder is a file called swtor_swtor if that can be attached. I gather you have ensured launcher.exe, swtor.exe and brwc.exe are listed in all the antivirus and firewall exception lists Non streaming should definitely help in this case though, and is as you say almost a new download.

@TheBlackWolfSWX One thing to do when you go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\BioWare\Star Wars-The Old Republic delete any patch folders back to the file in the bitraider folder, delete the swtor_swtor file and start the launcher and try the game again it should create a new log which wont be as large and should attach ok

@TheBlackWolfSWX It looks to be some sort of loop occuring , and is likely firewall related , i gather you have tried turning off any firewall on the router/modem as a test Given the amount of time you have spent on this it is likely better to switch so this issue with bitraider is removed.

Swtor launcher fully downloaded but game stuck in quick play mode

Already seen that and tried to do it but I cant find "Bit-Raider mini support service" anywhere, stup loader is here and I can do as it says but I don't seem to have the other one. Also, AVG is a certain program or just any antivirus or...? And thanks on quick replying!

If you just sign into the Launcher without launching the game yet, does the launcher download anything or patch the game at all?

If it's stuck on a fairly low %, I'd recommend simply switching to the non-streaming version: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Troubleshooting-Guides-Info/Guide-How-to-Switch-to-Non-Streaming-Launcher/m-p/4867417

It doesn't, I finished downloading the game completely yesterday and nothing since then. The "download" only appears once I click play button, as shown in the picture.

So should I switch to non-streaming version anyway? If you think that will help, I will, but I would just like to hear if you have any other things I could try before because last time I was downloading the game it took me almost 5 days and I understand that switching to Non-streaming would require a complete new download right? Thanks on your help in advance.

Yeah I am pretty sure that nothing is blocking it. I found that folder and opened it with a notepad, what should I do now? If switching to non-streaming will help, then im up for it, even though it will require a complete re-download.

Can you attach the swtor_swtor file found in the bitraider folder ?

It says the file is too large, should I look for something specific to copy here so you can check?
