no it isn't - not even close - for me and apparently oodles of others

for the recent patch of 265mb if you could actually get past the cannot connect to remote server it would actually download about half way and just stop - then you have to go through the whole rigamaroll of trying to connect 50 times and then download finally to about 98% and stop dead - same routine and finish downloading but of course not installing - you find the patch and try to install it yourself but find the file is corrupt

finally got it from a third party source which solved the problem of the frikkin useless patcher

of course now that you are all up to date you still have to get past that cannot connect to remote server multiple times

this has nothing to do with ports or admins or satellite dishes or the ice cream truck that has been parked outside your house for the last 2 hours or that you are on the moon and think you can get the beta
it has to do with the complete crap of a patcher/loader/installer that has been provided
