Thanks for the hard work guys! Not even upset it's taking a while. I was always told that great things don't happen overnight, so I'm glad when I woke up the servers were still down lol. Looking forward to trying your guys' work.
Does anyone have a "confirmed" file size for the 2.1 update file? (DLC download in GBs?)
Now that we are closing in on 12 hours downtime, I am now trying to determine if I am even going to be able to actually PLAY the 2.1 update today/tonight, or if the download is going to take most of us another 10-12 hours to actually download the bloomin file from the FD servers!
Not even factoring in the likely LOW bandwidth most of us are going to be dealing with due to everyone hammering the file server (s) at the same time. I read somewhere today that the Xbox One update was almost 9 GBs! But since they are upgrading from an ancient version of 1.5 with no Horizons content at all, our PC/Windows update could be totally different in terms of content and the resulting file size.
Thanks in advance for any "legit" file size info.

If this has been commented on before, sorry. I did look.
I am not at all pleased that you have decided to update service critical systems in the middle of the day and over evenings. I have worked in computing for over 20 years. Mission critical updates happen over night and at lowest user time.
Your might have charged reasonable prices but I'm left with frequent drop outs, service updates and more.
Really not that good.

and hum the Blue Danube whilst you're on approach
you can come up with an Elite Purity Test in 10 minutes.

Say what? Any player can outdock the computer with a little bit of practice.
What's the size of your user base and how big is each client download? Lotta graphics?
Sounds like it might be a completely different sort of complexity....
is wrong with the media these days...When the electric grid went down for 6 hours a few months back it made national headline news......
I've already check BBC 24hr news, and CNN but neither of them have mentioned the loss of ED for 10 hrs...

I've worked on live implementations that had to wait for a bank holiday weekend because they needed more than 48 hours to complete. This is nothing!
It's just a game, not a DoD system.
I just feel bad for Ed, poor guy has commited himself to livestreaming until 2.1 goes live

When at the gym you pretended you were flying an asp because the dashboard on the Exercice bike looked like the cockpit of an asp... yeah that happened to me today.
Your understanding of the reality of game development is really not that good.
Could be a million and one reasons why this is taking so long. But it does seem longer than the first few upgrades, doesn't it?
Maybe they've hit a problem, or maybe it's a massive upgrade due to all the changes and implimentation of new stuff like the need to track rep with engineers.
I came home from work all excited to download it, too. Hoping it would be quiet by now - and it's not even ready. SO when it is the download will take ages and I won't get the chance to play until tomorrow... Ce'st le vie. Might go and fly my drone for a bit.
