Unusually slow download?

Post#1 » Thu Mar 05, 2020 8:42 pm

Decided to check this game out thanks to a random youtube video i saw today and i'm getting like 300 kb a second useing the installer where i normally get somewhere around 20 MB a second when i download stuff. If that's normal that's fine but i was wondering if i should restart the download after resetting my router? Downloading from US i know the server is EU so mayby that's it?

Don't use the Launcher to download the game - it will take days and if it crashes or you have to restart it for any reason it starts at the beginning again. Use the torrent, it'll only take a few hours.

I used the Torrent. It took an hour.
I opened the folder.
All I seen was Launcher.
I started the launcher.. now I've been waiting 2 hours for the downloading, which is now stuck at 5604/171748files
What the heck happened??

Download the launcher from this guide, which is also handy if you're going with the torrent route. If you use the launcher included, it's simple the wrong version.

I think someone in QA needs to download a fresh game and check out this download speed.

Hey I know this was posted awhile ago, but I’m using the torrent link and I’m only getting around 80kb a second, any ideas how to fix?
