What is going on with the game launcher?

[Zeev]

The game is.. 3 years old?

How is that possible that the launcher still does not work properly?

According to the launcher, the game is being downloaded.

But the progress bar is not moving, and according to Task Manager, the process is not using any network.

My internet is fine. I was just downloading Star Citizen at 10 MB/s (My ISP package is 20 MB/s).

What? By default it is a P2P?

All this money they get and they do not want customers to download their game by default from their servers?

I have just wasted 2 hours!

Its not like they make a lot of money in a niche market, you know.

Blizzard uses the same basic model to distribute their patches.

Breathe, my friend. All will be fine.

 

The sim works, it is extremely nice to look at, and a pleasure to fly. Your time will not be wasted.
