Download speeds in the double digit kB/s

[ArmoredWeasel]

The game update process started off at 12+ MB/s but within minutes dropped to 5-20 kB/s. Since then, it's sometimes snapping back up to a few MB/s, but mostly sticks in the double digits kB/s. Is this a region issue? Are services going under? My org mates finished installing hours ago, but most of them are AU/NZ based.

 

Restarting the launcher does nothing but repeat the behavior. The launcher picks up at the point it left off, with the same lackluster download rates. Meanwhile, talent points go to waste and the markets fill up - I was really hyped for launch day, but this feels like a massive drag 🤔
