Solution:
DON'T USE WINZIP. Try with 7Zip or WinRAR. Winzip doesn't correctly unzip the patch, although you get no error during the operation.

I've posted this on this thread and sent a message to blackSix so they can put this advise right in the first post, but I guess they didn't.

WinZip will work if you right click on the .rar. and hit properties, select Unblock and all the files will be extracted properly. Not sure why Winzip blocks all the files from extracting.
