Too bad the BioWare websites are constantly crashing at the moment.

[Aian]

[konfeta]

Any mirrors? Bioware is tragically overwhelmed.

[ViSeiRa]

W00t, already downloading, and managed to add a reply too

[Saphara]

[DanteGunZ]

Took me almost 20 minutes to get into the forums. xD

[Saphara]

[ref]

Living in Canada ftw! Already downloaded and installing, hehe. Thanks BioWare!

[ShadyKat]

Only 3 more hours to go!

[Chris Priestly]

Yep, 100k download requests PER SECOND was even more than we expected.

However, we hope to have it fixed now.

[The_Papaspud]

1/3 done slow going. took forever to get a connection.

[Cheiron the Centaur]

*lol* funny how they ask us to download it a million times, but their servers can't even handle 100,000 simultaneous downloads...  (which causes people to try again and again...)

Finally! After 20 minutes of trying I managed to get the download started. I'm so excited!

[Olof85]

[Walkingshade]

Thank you Bioware, you rock.

[0rz0]

Have you considered distribution via .torrent?

[Livetaswim06]

Yea it seems to be up and running now. The download speed is super slow unfortunately. Well just looks like I have to play on the 360 again if I need a hit of DA2.

[Valcutio]

Downloading now.. only 5 hours to go. 100 kb/s... really, Bioware? Really?



Still very excited though.

[Saphara]

So, my downloading has slowed from 500 Kb/sec to 350ish and continuing. Anyway to fix that?
