2.12Mb/s and 2.27Mb/s Download speeds rock my world!

WTF is wrong with this company's servers? Talk about potatoes...

And this is definitely NOT on my end.

I got 1.2 MB/s and I'm not complaining ¯_ツ_/¯

Ugh, I normally download games (SWTOR, WoW, Archeage, single player stuff) at about 25 - 30.

I've never topped 4 on this game.

I download torrents and well-docked stuff from the internet at 6-8MB/s, smite and origin game same. When it comes to steam, it drops down to max 1.3MB/s, which hurts but is acceptable.

I used to download everything at 700kB/s, that was true suffering.

No issues here either, it's definitely you and not their servers

NA or EU? I'd believe it's on my end if I didn't just download patches and full games for everything else I play at 25 - 30.

Yeah, seems everyone else I've seen have this problem has been NA. There are many other posts all over multiple sites going back over a year about how slow their "feed" is.

I'm able to download at my limit, I'm downloading from steam tho

norsecrowOP•

Yeah, I've heard that steam does not have the same issues that the game directly does. Makes sense.

What's your internet speed?

1
norsecrowOP•

65 when I tested this morning to double check.

Mbps right? If yes, that means your limit right now should be 8.125MB/s so it does look like some thing is wrong somewhere

1
norsecrowOP•

Yeah, next time I patch WOW or something I'll need to see if they are actually reporting speeds in Mbps rather than MB... but even so, BDO is ridic slow.

Usually ISPs will advertise in Mbps because the number is bigger and also technically you download bits not necessarily bytes but almost anything displayed to the user in terms of downloading is almost always MB/s

I was enjoying smooth 16Mb/s. Had no trouble here.
