Blizzard Downloader fail!

Postby Aj on Sun Jul 25, 2010 10:20 pm

So... I finally got around to trying to activate my $1.98 copy of Starcraft from Half Price Books on Battle.net, and it worked. So I open up the Blizzard downloader and it starts at 250kb/s, and then drops to ~60-70kb/s.

I uncheck "enable peer downloads" and it goes back up to 250kb/s. Blizzard fail.

That's weird. With as much shit as I have to download for WoW, I've never noticed a dip in speed like that. To be fair though, my StarCraft 2 download did take almost 9 hours...

Dear "god" you have taken one of my favorite drummers the Rev, you have taken my favorite actor Patrick Swayze. I just wanted to let you know Obama is my favorite president.
