Game Client DL - server based or torrent based? Please "seed" if so?

Haven't read any for sure info, but it seems that the game is distributed as peer to peer and not from a server? Right now I'm getting 1/20th of my original speed, and there is no "Prefer Web Distribution" button. Would love to play some tonight.

If it is P2P, maybe some people with fairly fast internet could do some uploading right now? My download speed goes between 0.5 megabytes to 12 megabytes per second. Would be done in 25 minutes at full speed, and was kind of hyped actually testing this tonight.

Based in Europe if it matters.

If there are any other way to get faster speed - apart from buying from Steam instead - that would be welcome.

At one point it used to be P2P, but I don't think that is at all possible anymore. It's just a straight download from the server.

Alright, I guess I have no other choice than to wait. I've already tested my internet, so that is no bottleneck right now, but I guess patience is a virtue...!

Thanks for quick answer!

We just put out a hotfix so the servers are being hit at the moment.
