AmadanBezerk Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 (edited) I hope this is the proper forum for this.....please know that I'm NOT asking for any help whatsoever for this problem, just confirmation, or not. I'm trying to re-install my Skyrim, but the subsequent updates I must get off Steam are being VERY slow. :whistling: (about 9 hrs to d/l and no, I'm not kidding!)I strongly suspect all the sudden downloading of just-released-online Dawnguard @Steam is slowing Steam to a snail's pace. :verymad: :wallbash: Am I right?Anyone else got this problem?

Lutine Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 It always happens on a new release of anything major. Just sit tight, and wait a day for the bandwidth to clear up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorch621 Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 yeah, bandwidth must be pretty tight considering Beth surprised us like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Illiad86 Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 Servers always go nutty when a new release comes out. I couldn't even get into the store for almost an hour when Skyrim came out last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingdark Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 damn, maybe I should wait a while before purchasing. it's not like you can put the dlc on hold until you wish to install it. Darn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmadanBezerk Posted August 3, 2012 Author Share Posted August 3, 2012 (edited) That's cool. 8) My cheap-a-s "internet service" (and i DO mean the quotation marks! ) is wonky enough as it is :verymad: I first thought that might be the problem.....but the suddenness and massiveness of the slowdown caught even me by surprise, so that is what gave me the suspicion in the first place. :dry: @Scorch621: ".....Beth surprised us like this": Ya don't say!....You're NOT kidding! :biggrin: Thank you all for the confirmation. Cheers, everyone! Oh, another thing about Dawnguard, and sorry if this is slightly off-topic: personally I am NOT impressed as to the bugs that people are starting to report. I'm seriously considering waiting :whistling: impatiently for at least some of the innumerable patches and bugfixes that ALL to often, modders :thumbsup: release before Bethesda does.
