And I often have ping spikes, delays for ability to fire, etc. Today in optimal situation, I never drop under 130 ms of ping. I'd like to complete some trials, and my moral took a hit because of the disconnects and high ping, I gave up on some days for the undaunted event. I know my connection is at fault, but it's been better before, I could run the game without issues.
#WHY IS MY STEAM DOWNLOAD SO SLOW INSTALL#
Should I contact my ISP for information about the correct procedure? yeah thats the only pain with steam the dl is taking forever, i tell ya a good trick, if you paid for the game all is well, so go and download the game (Torrent) from a diff server, atleast a faster one then steam, just install the game, don't even download the crack, thats it, after that just sign on with steam and download the updates, DLC's ect. Now as you can tell thats obviously a huge difference, and I dont have any VPN or anything on. When trying to download something, Opera says its 70 KBPS. Im using speedtest and the results say my internets at 60MB download, 75MB upload. I opened the specified ranges, while taking care of not using already attribued internal ports, and set up the firewall to allow the new ports I opened, and it did result in a total inability to log in, so I just disabled the new parameters (Don't tell my network teachers.). So basically, Ive been trying to download some stuff on Opera GX but honestly, its really slow. I saw in the FAQ that opening some ports on the router could help the performances.
#WHY IS MY STEAM DOWNLOAD SO SLOW PATCH#
Today I noticed that the latest patch was taking an unusually long time. I'm currently at home, until early january, and usually, I have around 80 ping in game, and a download speed of about 800 kB/s to 1,2 MB/s. I usually play on two different locations, in my engineering school campus, which has a top tier network (and no issues with ESO), or at home. I've had network issues with ESO recently (in the last few weeks). If the game has a ton of small files (Nexus: The Jupiter Incident is what prompted this. From what I can determine, Galaxy downloads and installs the files simultaneously. also you can set steam to start when your computer starts so it's ready for you when you want to play (so you don't have to wait those painful seconds while steam starts up).Īnd well tf2 does take a while to load up, all source games do (in my case).Hello. I was just troubleshooting very slow download speed and discovered one possible answer, so thought Id share for those who find this in Google as I did. You can search for servers without starting TF2. Is it possible that Steam is just poorly coded? And half the time TF2 doesn't even work, I usually have to exit and reload the game about 3 times for it to even show any servers.
Why can't it be as fast as any other game, for example if I wanted to play UT3, I'd click on it and it starts up right away, no questions asked.
Then when I join any server (even low ping) it takes a minute or more to even connect. for it to start up, then I have to click on tf2, which takes another 2-3 min to start up, then once the game has finally loaded, I have to wait another 1-2 min. Lets say I want to play tf2, I click on the steam icon, wait 2-3 min. Ok, recently I have been getting very annoyed about how slow steam is.
