Downloadspeeds are horrible

This is the only problem I really hate about the game, it's the downloadspeed.

5 kilybytes per second is simply too slow for someone who usually downloads with more than 15 Megabytes per second (so it's not the fault of my internet connection).

The thing I always hear is "Well, it's only during updates", sorry, that's a non-statement, because it's everytime I need to download something.

When was the Jonjovian Update released? On Wednesday? I tried everyday to download and every day the download speed was around the same value, ie 5kb/s. That's not a modern speed.

 

Here are some possible solutions, what DE can do about that:

  • offer more servers, spread around the world
  • consider P2P technology (ie the Launcher is the P2P client)
  • get rid of the launcher (why is it needed anyway?) and use the Steamservers instead (Steam has fast and reliable servers all around the world).

I'm just tossing these ideas in the room, knowing that not all of them are thought out (ie the P2P stuff)

 

So now,Let me wait for a few hours until the game has downloaded the files at a current speed of 6 kilobytes per second...

tada

So I think this solved that:

 

I disabled 
Bulk Download 
Multi-Threaded Rendering 
Launcher GPU Acceleration
in the Launchers settings

 

now I download with like 5 megabytes/s that's much much better than 5 kilobytes
