DL speed of game...

ZorlokZorlok Member UncommonPosts: 132

I'm in the process of down loading the game from the patcher.  For some reason I can't get a higher speed than 222KB/s.. This is killing me.  Did anyone else expereince this and if so is there anything I can do to maxamize the speed.  This is highly annoying..

    I got a 1.5 meg download for the basic game , are you setting on the region you suppose to play ?

    For example you are in EU but want to play in US

    Or vice versa , then stop it , and just download regionally , you can still change the setting later on .

    Where you want to play .

     

    The other issue is maybe firewall related or windows 7 related did you run it on admin right ?

    Thats most important for windows 7 , that its run in compatibility the admin right on .

    I actually turned my firewall off and am in the correct region.  I have no idea why I am DLing so slow.  I was hoping to play this evening but there is no way possible at the slowness of the patcher.. So frustrating.  I guess I'll just give it a shot in the morning.

    Zor go to the official forum , after a reboot , how much of the 8 gb are you at . or is it the update patch (so game is installed)

    Then do a reboot and try again , even with firewall off the damn antivirus cause a problem with my first update .

    IT simply refused to download . till i turned the whole internet security off . after a reboot.

    Well, I am dowloading the game.  I'm at 1.8 GB right now.  I have tried rebooting.  It hasn't really done anything.  I'll see if I can do something else... Grrr..

    Go to tech forum or ask for a direct download , since its the official game they already found workaround for slow download .

    I didn´t experience that problem , but others has posted a solution for that one .

    Cause 222kb is going to take forever so download it from the tech forum site , post a official support if you need too .

    They should get to you asap with a direct link for that patch .

    Download finished, but it took a while.  I wasn't able to get anything passed 240KB/s... oh well.  It took 12 hours and now I'm playing.. Love it..

    Yup, I was a little upset, but it was well worth the wait.  I tried everything to get something faster than 240KB/s... Nothing worked.  So I waited.  The speed was consistent but it wouldn't max any higher than that.  So yeah, it took 12 hours to download.  It finished at like 5AM.. I woke up at 6AM to get my hands wet.  I leveld a toon to level 10 in about 4 hours and enjoyed myself.  I'm going to role a new toon here in a bit to see if I like the mages...
