Horizons Shorten your download time

Just rename the Horisons beta folder to: elite-dangerous-64

Then it doesn't have to redownload the entire thing :D

Not necessary dude, the installer now pulls the data from the Beta folder. Took me 10 mins to download horizons, normally I would be waiting a couple of hours minimum.
 
I haven't played the game for a few months, so I haven't updated for ages. It's currently chugging along at a dialuptastic 0.2MB/s. Only 8 hours to go!
 
Yep did not need to do anything.. The launcher took care of it an within 5-6 minutes for me, I would playing
 
Not sure why it's so slow for some people. Did you forget to pay the bill?

It's chugging along nicely at 1.2MB/s for me.

It started that way for me. Currently at .05MB/sec AND it's almost completely hosed my internet connection, only a .25MB/sec Upload when normally, it's around 1.5. It's almost as if, I'm sharing a torrent file... hmmm.
 
Every Elite update has been similar for me. I get very slow download speeds and frequently have to restart it because it timed out.

NAT is open, regular torrents work fine, Steam downloads are always over 8MB/s. While I was waiting for this to trickle another few MB, I just downloaded 5 GB of files for a flight sim and that only took half an hour. Wish there was another way of getting Elite updates.
 
Mine took about 10 mins and thats from a crappy hotel connection.

It pulls most of the files from the Beta files (if you had beta), so it is going to depend.
