Verify after EVERY patch?
To make sure that the patch didn't break any of your files.
The old patcher did the same thing, btw.

It also deletes the downloaded patch file (.ncpatch) upon completion.

Did the old one really? I don't remember having to go through three loading bars.
The old patcher verified files immediately after downloading and applying them, before getting to the cityofheroes.exe blue loading bar.

Which brings up the question, why do I NOW have to click "Yes" to get it to do this now. Seriously, if the game is patching, that is my cue to go get a sandwich, and hopefully come back to a login screen.

This I agree with. At least stick a "Don't ask me this again" tickbox on the stupid thing.
There's a simple way around it.
In the launcher, right-click on COH.
Then under extra parameters type
-noverify
That'll skip the verification every time.
With the NCSoft launcher, I now have to verify after every patch. It doesn't take too long, so it's not so bad, but it is pretty annoying to go through a download, then whatever the next step is, click "Play," and then be stuck with a third loading bar. Is there some reason for this?
