Need volunteers to run a quick download test
« on: February 23, 2012, 03:09:08 PM »
I'm looking for some people to attempt to download a file from our website and see if they are getting a super slow download speed.  Just start a download of the game to see if it's downloading at normal speed and then cancel the download.  Let me know if it seems normal for you or if it's really slow.  Thanks.

Downloading normally from my work system, which is slow in the first place, but it is at least "normal".
I'll try later this evening when I get home on the 18meg speed.

Mine held steady at about 1.3 Mb/sec for 30 seconds before I cancelled it. Thats about my average so it appears to be ok.

I started a download of the game at 6 pm eastern I was getting 100-150 kb download. I had just finished downloading new a new driver package and it was much faster than the game.

Seemed fast enough for me. 3.5mbps, which is about right for me.
