SE sort out your Updater ><

This updater is a complete joke. I have been updating since the minute it the patch went up and here is my current progress:

I know it's not my connection speed as I have a 50mb connection with only this PC connected:

I hope you do something about this before 1.18 because if that patch is a big one then it will take ages to download. Also when 1.18a, 1.18b come along if they do we will have to do it all over again ><

This is why I use uTorrent to dl my patches. SE's updater tool is horrible.

UTorrent sounds like a good idea? But where do I download those files. Could someone give me some insight, thanks?

I don't think we can post that information on these forums but Google is your friend ^^

I started the download 3mins ago and am at 39.2% >.>

Seems it sucks for some and only sorta sucks for others.



Something needs to be done or people will have 50-80hr downloads for 1.18

I seem to be getting somewhat slow speed even using Bittorrent (granted the download rate is ALOT more bearable compared to using SE's updater)... I've been at a steady 40kb/s for most of the patch

The updater one among many technical things that need to be fixed with this game. They still need to move the config in game, fix alt-tab crashing for full screen, etc.

And I made a thread on technical support about if i had a problem cause i was downloading as 50kb lol. This is much worse.

I have:

0 Remote Connections
26 Local Connections

Are Remote Connections seeders and Local Connections Leechers?
