#Starcraft 2 game speed setting download#
Inside the preferences for the Starcraft 2 downloader there is an option to disable background download throttling which I would also suggest you set.Limiting your upload speed too drastically seems to also drag your download speed down as well, so don’t go cutting it back too much.After installing NetLimiter I was able to re-enable the peer-to-peer method of downloading and limit the upload speed (within NetLimiter) to around 30kbps which saw my download speed eventually increase to around 900kbps.
#Starcraft 2 game speed setting software#
A quick scan of a few forums put me on to a little piece of software called NetLimiter. I tried that but the speed barely increased. I looked at the connection details and realised that the downloader uses peer-to-peer sharing and that my upload speed was now higher than my download speed!įortunately within the downloader there is an option to switch off peer-to-peer sharing and just use direct downloading. But a few minutes later I watched in horror as the estimated time increased, 6 hours, 8 hours and so on. To begin with, the SC2 downloader gave me an estimated time of about 4 hours, which is ok I guess. I don’t know about anyone else but when I buy a game, especially one as long-awaited as Starcraft, I am itching to load it up and start playing it straight away!Īnyway, I started the 6.99gb download about half an hour ago. Running NetLimiter on the Starcraft 2 downloader to increase download speed.Īs I write this I have just begun downloading Starcraft 2 after purchasing the digital download copy off of.
