Okay. This is entirely your connection at this point.

I've bought games during huge steam sales before and have had like 8 hours tops on the download. Never even one day, much less four. And really, it doesn't even take the full 8 because the speeds increase on 'off hours' if you just leave it go.

I said that I had terrible a internet connection.

It took me 23 hours of actual downloading to get Borderlands, Seil. I know your pain.

Downloading the Orange Box Set back in May was some of the slowest 2 days of my life.

Seil · 07-11-2011, 12:52 AM

The thing that hurts the most is that I had gotten everything - everything on my list was downloaded, (Borderlands had literally just finished) and I caught a virus. took my computer to the shop and got it wiped.

Now I have to download everything again at a speed varying from 10B (B is there for a reason) to 250KB per second.

At the same time, I'm very scared.

I'm downloading at a rate of 1.1 MB/S. My download literally jumped from 30 minutes left, to 10 minutes left.

EDIT: In any case, I feel for ya, Seil.

Left 4 Friends!

Flaming Mauve hunter flies through the heavans, watching over us all.

I apologize for the learning curve to my first introduction to full on Left4Friends. I just can't help it if I'm holding a sniper rifle and a hunter is standing still right in front of me (I will admit it was a dick move to shoot the boomer buddy in the back on the last part).

Soooooooo goooood.

But this is more an exception to the rule.
Normally, I tend to hover around 200 KB/S-ish in Steam. Which, comparing to you guys, is still considerably more.

Outside of Steam, I'm not that fast either.

EDIT: I shouldn't have bragged. Download speed cut in half. XD
