I've got half decent net speed. But the updates on the alpha and done loading the new maps seem to take forever. I've given up.

Anyone got the same issue?

Be patient. This "online distribution system" is a whole new technology, never been done before outside of DCS, so obviously it's got some bugs. It's either this or going back to CDs.

Same here. But I did not give up, just left my computer on over night to d/l. It was ready to go in the morning.

As for the alpha, after a few tweeks up and running very good. The only issue I have is the exe will stop running randomly. New update should address that issue.

Consider that Sh*tspawn is using 90% of the bandwidth to scan the web for possible "1.13 violations" biggrin
