Ramjet Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Hello, all. I was just curious how download speeds were for dcs world standalone install as opposed to steam these days? I haven't played in quite some time. I last installed dcs world on steam, along with my two previously purchased modules (a-10c and ka-50). But, I haven't played since installing on steam. The updater from ED just had such slow download speeds in the past. But, with inconsistencies between the steam and ed versions, I figured I might switch back to the standalone ED launcher. Hence the question. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeorgeLKMT Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 I've maxed out my connection with every update lately, so I wouldn't worry about speeds (10-11.5MB/s usually). Also, I don't have to restart the updater fifty times to get reasonable speed anymore. ■ L-39C/ZA Czech cockpit mod ■ My DCS skins ■ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkateZilla Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 (edited) DCS updated around 5Mb+ / sec for me. No issues at all 4 or so Gb in a few minutes. Then again, I downloaded some games on steam last night at 45 Mb/sec :-) (But it was because the server was close enough for me to drive to in less than 2 hrs).

Flogger23m Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 In my recent experience, faster than Steam. Steam has slowed down as of late. I got around 5-6MB/S just now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chief1942 Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Sad to say my updates come in at about .9MB/s. But then I live in very rural Arizona and I feel fortunate to even have broadband as it exists in our region. But DCS is worth the waits.
