Internet, like it's 1999.

I went to update the game today and noticed that it is a small 10GB update.

Should be nice and quick with my first-world connection, NOPE.

Oh, that's right, it's Square Enix...

I am greeted with a capped 1MB download speed, what the hell.

Like it's 1999 on JetStream Ultra.

876Mbps Fibre :(

Please upgrade the Atari 2600 download servers.

PS: dropped to 300/kb (9 hours to download update).

The perfect sound effect for this thread.

Here ya go!

Must be something on ur side, i see ppl download it with 109MB/s and myself also fully used my maximum connection speed.

*laugh in 3rd world country internet*
9 -10 hours to download a game is normal for me

I did download it with 12 MB/sec about when it became available.
Not fast, but something easily run in the background.

FF 14 getting a 1999 add on just like warframe.

I imagine when you're trying to download something from the same place as 150k+ other individuals at the same time, it's going to slow down considerably.

3AM and can't wait 10 minutes for a patch with 3 hours of content for the next month :^)

I downloaded the patch in 2-3 minutes. I can't relate..

Download takes around 2 minutes currently. Thanks gigabit internet.

What's your tcp window? Do you have scaling enabled?

and there is me that took a minute x)

Depends of who you ask. I downloaded on phone internet in 4 minutes, when my fibre is down.
Meanwhile some friends with fibre had over 30min or 1h of download times. It's always been like that since the dawn of times iirc.

Took me 10 minutes in a guest WIFI spot.

When this was happening to me, it was because of a router setting that had max connection per application / per connection capped. If you have access to your router or modem, check and make sure there isn't some limit per connection deep in the settings.

Literally a skill issue on your ISP's side
My third world connection downloaded the whole thing in minutes, without any caps, at my ISP's full GLORIOUS 13 Mb/s
