hmm, do I buy the hood now or do I wait for a discount? :/


i dunno the question is will the sale pass before this patch is finished downloading at 30kbps
hmmm, im still fluxing from 10kbs to 500kbs on 40mbps connction. oh well :(
Would closing the game and restarting help with the download speed?

8 kkps for the last hour is kinda slow.

My download is crawling, but I excepted as much living an extremely rural area. Only have a 12 MB connection.

Either way, it'll start speeding up the more people finish downloading. So, yay.

Thanks for the good work, GGG.
Sure. Awesome support.

People crying here for their dose of Path of Exile RIGHT NOW! and problem solved within an hour.

I remember the Diablo 3 launch in comparison.
Not able to play the first 2 days and the first Week End.

Edit2: Our CDN has added a lot more capacity and we can see that people are downloading a lot faster now. A user has prepared a torrent of the Content.ggpk file which can be downloaded here if you're still having issues. Note that it requires downloading more than the size of just the patch itself if you choose this option.


Torrent seems faster than the direct download, at least for the front half.

How do we "install" the patch from the torrent?
copy the ggpk file to your poe directory.

Come on Chris, you're telling me you really didn't expect this sort of server load?

Just copy content.ggpk into your poe game folder.

I think it would do a great deal of good to take down the website to redirect bandwidth for 30 minutes like ya did at the start of Open Beta.


It wouldn't have any noticable impact, unfortunately. Patching is using far more bandwidth than the website is.

The patch is delivered by an extremely fast international CDN that we pay a lot of money for. Unfortunately when tens of thousands of people are downloading a patch at exactly the same time, it'll be slow until some finish. Thanks for your patience!

I think you should consider torrent. CDN is good and fast but very expensive instead you can deliver only client.exe and other small files over website and content.ggpk can be delivered via torrent so you can save a lot of money for more important things.
