I'm also getting miserable connection speeds. Can't seem to get faster then 14 to 20 kps. Seems to slow down as I go. I've been at 2 1/2 hours to completion for nearly an hour. I've tried reconnecting to the server a few times, but no luck.

As far as I can tell it's not my connection, as I checked other sites and my speed is fine.

Kinda frustrating.

Fintilgin,

Where are you connecting from and on what kind of connection?

Connecting from Maine on a DSL connection. Usually my download speed caps out at ~ 360kbs or so.

No problems grabbing a mod for a Paradox game while this download trundles along at 14kbs. That downloaded in a couple minutes at ~280kbs.

Only got 40 minutes left now, hope I don't drop my connection. It's a weird issue, I haven't seen speeds like this with any other downloads in ages.


EDIT: Using Firefox, but I tried it through Chrome and IE too, just for the hell of it. No difference.

Hi Fintilgin,

Very odd, no issues with download speed on a test download to Vermont. If you want to investigate further, please e-mail me your IP address to erikr@matrixgames.com and I'll see if the store can figure out why the path from your system to our server is so slow this evening. I know that downloads in general are working fine and our store servers have plenty of extra bandwidth.

Went ahead and sent an email, although obviously it won't affect my current download. Speed has slowed down again. I'm still at forty minutes. :p

Finally finished.

No time to dig into it tonight, but I should be able to give it a look.

I am having the same problem. Simply not downloading. I have never had a problem with a Matrix purchase before, and I have several games. I have no connection or network problems and although it is against my better judgment, I have disabled my virus checker and firewall. What gives?
