    Is pts something anyone can opt in to? Or do you have to be on their list? I'm mostly curious about the multicore improvement for now, I'd wait for release to do the summerset thing, do it when it's in really good shape..

    PTS is for anyone; u just have to show 'Public Test Environment'' under launcher settings. Summerset specifically is by invitation only.... Check your email; if you were in morrowind PTS; u have auto invite.

    download speed?

    could that be because loads of people are also downloading at the same time?

    If anyone else downloads and gets it before me, please let us know how the multicore improvements go. Most excited about that. Hopefully by the time Summerset actually drops, I'll have a new 6-core (i5-8600k is what I'm aiming at)

    I was downloading at like 200-400 KB/s on 1 Gbit internet. It went up to 35 MB/s for a few minutes, which bumped me up to 10% complete, then it tanked again. Now I'm at 1.5 MB/s. Server must be overloaded.

    it's an option in the launcher, scroll to my first post on this thread, and someone replied with the info.

    Unless you mean to play early Summerset, in which case I have no idea.

    As far as I got from the forum here, it is invitation only (via email) and for those, who had access to the Morrowind beta as well (without an email invitation). But I will see, for now it is downloading at about 4.8Mb/s.

    I was in the Morrowind beta but have heard nothing about being in the Summerset beta. Which is fine I guess. More surprises when it goes live next month.

    I don't think it's a problem with your ISP.

    I have 1 Gbit internet (I average around 950 Mbps in speed test). However, ESO patches can take forever.

    Full games in Steam, Blizzard, Uplay, and Origin download in a few minutes (I recently reinstalled Rainbow 6 Siege with the HD texture pack, for a total around 80 GB, and it took like 30-45 minutes). Similar sized patches can take the whole day in ESO sometimes (I've been downloading this PTS patch for like 5 hours already and I'm only at 20%). Some days downloads are fast, but when there are a lot of people downloading, it slows down to a crawl.

    I've tried downloading the game through both my cable internet and my mobile LTE (different providers). Same speed on both.

    It just seems ESO download servers overload easily.
