First time trying to install PTS for summerrest beta invite, but it is taking extremely long. Went to bed last night and it was at 13% and when I woke up it was at 8%? I have never done a PST so not sure how long it should take, but I cant seem to find any similar issues about it on the forums.

    There was a phase where downloadspeed was at about 400 kb/s. Although that was only for about 100 mb data. I started the complete pts-download at about 18:30, it was finished at about 01:00 in the night.

    That's cool but many people are only getting to 20% - 25% in excess of 10 hours DL. There is also a content failed issue and repair option resetting DL to 0%. In general not a good DL experience for many.

    I started downloading yesterday. It was 10% this morning, and now 8%. I just quit trying.

    So I checked up on it and it went to 21%. Then it went to 0% lol Don't think this is going to work for me.

    I tried to update my PTS yesterday. My internet isn't great where I live, but after about ten hours it was still at 7%. No error or anything, just terribly slow. Had to shut the computer down before it was anywhere near finished, so I'm guessing it'll be starting from 0% again. At this rate, I'll never get in. Hope they fix it soon. Guess I'm just glad to hear I'm not the only one.

    The launcher should verify files then continue DL from where it was when you switched off computer. The word 'should' is key here! Also, if you try a repair then continue DL it will, possibly, restart from 0% and not from where it left off.

    Good luck. :smiley:

    I started the PTS DL at about 3:45pm EST yesterday. As of 10pm last night it was 15%. Left the launcher open all night, looked at it this morning, it was at 1%. Since roughly 8:30-9 this morning it's gone to 21% and is now at 0.0KB/s.

    Edit: Now I have an "HTTP request failed" message at 21% downloaded.

    I've been having trouble getting mine to download, too. I repaired last night after stalling at 23%, woke up to check this morning before work and found it had backtracked again. Restarted my computer, got it installed, but then it crashed upon trying to load, so I tried repairing again; left it to install while I'm at work today. Hoping it will be done when I get home...but not optimistic.

    My download also stalled at 21%, said "HTTP request failure," and started backtracking. This happened twice already.
    It doesn't seem like the problem is on my side. Any solutions?
