FFxiv Launcher

Latest patch downloading at 19 b/sec to 135b/sec. The first six months of the game I had to switch to another bit torrent program to download the updates then It went ok for a long time till today.

Isn't it about time Final Fantasy 14 deserved a better launcher?

I personally have only had an issue with the launcher just once. I think my dl speeds were very slow, yet my upload speeds were over 500k/s. I exited the launcher and tried again....and it downloaded just fine. I have heard of others that have had the same issue time and time again and i must say the only issue i see really is......impatience. i do not mean that as a jab at you, so please do not take it that way. I understand that different players have different varibles that come into play in situations like these. What i find funny tho... is that people use torrent programs to dl the updates.....but the launcher program itself is a torrent program lol

Forward FFXIV's ports and you should be golden. Never used another program to download and have always downloaded at my connection's high to max speed.

Could you remind me of those, please?
