I'm assuming the servers are just overloaded with the sheer voilume of people downloading. Not only do they have existing beta backers but all those of us who bought into the Horizons beta when it was available for pre-order. That's possibly a much higher volume of requests than they're prepared for.

...not that I'm commenting from the standpoint of a web performance consultant or anything... :rolleyes:

No Horizon Beta option in the launcher for me, instead I have "Elite Dangerous - Ships Beta [1.5] - 64-BIT", is that the beta I want?

Edit: Reinstalled Launcher and Beta 2.0 popped up

My last installer (from 25.11.2015) was 26MB, today I downloaded a new installer that is 125MB large.
Now dowloading 2.0 Beta :)

PS 40% remaining.. and downloading at 0.68MB/s (12MB/s peak... :( )

Confirmed -- Steam Version does not include Horizons Beta install option, only 32bit Main Game, and 1.5 32b/64b. (Demo ofc).

Just downloaded the installer again from Frontier site and Horizons is there.

EDIT: Server of course does not allow me to download as there is quite a large volume of people I guess. Frontier please release stats for us stat hungry nerds.

So finished updating/installing the 64 bit version :) , however when I press play on the Beta 1.5 shipsupgrade and get into the gamemenu this happen when trying to select "start"... :(

Can't connect to EDserver: client is too new :eek::eek::eek:

I meem com'on is this a practical joke or what... :S:S

also the client wont even start the horizon game... I can see "the play" link change colour when I press the link, but after a few seconds it just returns to it's previus colour and I can then click it again and same thing happens againg... The game doesn't start up :mad:

I see the Horizons 2.0 beta listed but get the Server refused to provide the installer error, so I tried the "Elite Dangerous - Ships Beta [1.5] - 64-BIT" version. It downloaded really fast, oddly though the exe in it is called EliteDangerous32, don't look too 64 bit to me :)
Surprised there are separate clients for Horizons and 1.5, would have thought a combined one would be there to test that Horizons still worked for those that don't have access to planetary landings.

Got all beta options available 1.5 ships beta 32 bit / 1.5 ships beta 64 bit and 2.0 Horizons beta so this can be only said 1 way :
SQEEEEEEEEEL.

Not 100% sure but i think coping the old client helps with those who have slow connections like i do, as i think the game will only install 2.0 stuff not the entire game, dont quote me on it but my speed suddenly went up from 0.3 MB/s to 1.5 MB/s....

Looks like a bug with the launcher, if you download the 1.5 64Bit beta it seems to think you have 2.0 so doesn't show the install button but the Play button doesn't work. Delete the 'PUBLIC_TEST_SERVER_64' folder in \EDLaunch\Products\ and restart the Launcher and you will see the Install option for 2.0. (Not that it then installed for me :))

When I try to install Horizons it flashes the install bar up for a moment saying "finalizing update" then kicks me out with "Server refused to provide installer: not available"

Some issues Michael, nobody can download it or do anything so the some issues must be big issues.

Very disappointed TBH, but hay nothing has changed since day one.

Hope you get it sorted this week.
