Here are the patch notes from the Training Room. This is what is scheduled to go in with this batch.
| QUOTE | Version: 16.20080122.10T4
Date: Tuesday, February 26th, 2008
COMBINED NOTES
Task Force/Strike Force and Trial Missions
• The size of spawns in Task Force/Strike Force missions will always be based on the number of players in a Strike Force/Task Force, regardless of whether they are logged on or not.
• Spawns for Task Forces/Strike Forces no longer have a minimum size that they will not scale below.
8 Person Task Force Example,
• 8 players begin an 8 player Task Force and then 7 people LOG OFF. The spawns in the Task Force will still scale to the 8 players attached to the Task Force (regardless of whether they are logged on or not).
• If instead of logging off, 6 of the players QUIT the 8 person Task Force, then the Spawns will scale down to the remaining 2 players on the Task Force.
CITY of HEROES
Powers
Blaster
• Blaster PVP Damage for some attacks was still off after the fix in the previous build. They are now corrected. This includes Explosive Arrow, Havoc Punch, Ice Bolt, and Fireball.

Check the patch updates when the servers go live to verify that all of these changes did actually go into effect.

Question for all the computer gurus out there: What is up with these patches lately? It seems they take 2 seconds to download, but 10+ minutes to install. Why? Hmmmm...?

It seems like it takes no time to download about 13 MB of patch, but applying it across 2.4 GB of game data seems to be the hangup. Having no knowledge of game code, I can't say whether just telling the update to "just apply the code here, here and here) would work.
I'm an incurable altoholic, but most recently I've played as these characters:
Abana (hero, Champion), lvl 44 mag tanker, stone/stone/fit
Etain Echraide (hero, Virtue), lvl 21 mag controller, plant/therm
One Man Vs. The Mob (hero, Virtue), lvl 11 sci blaster, nrg/nrg/fly/stealth
Ballplayer Reverend (hero, Champion), lvl 19 nat tanker, will/mace/speed

The download will just take a few secs to slot into place but rest of the time is making sure it's only changed the things thay want changed. The little bit of extra time is better than having a bad load and crashing in the middle of the game.

That would actually make sense, that all that time is being taken to double-check that the patch didn't actually hose your game. That's a sensible precaution.
