    I tried this but its not making any different in the download speed. I contacted EA support via online chat and they told me to clear my cache and if that didnt work i have to reinstall the game. So im reinstalling, my concern is what if this happens again. -.- 👎 Thank you for replying though.

  • Did you just copy over the files or did you install the game there using Origin?

    I installed the game to my external HD using origin. From the moment i hit install i made the destination folder (Or w/e you call it.) onto my external hard drive.

    Its very strange this happened as Origin didnt update my comp didnt update i hardly even touched my comp the past 2 days. Think i could move Battlefield 1 from my external to my HD and then back to the external?

    So i copied battlefield 1 to where Origin games normally go and that didnt fix it. Then i tried changing game library location and that ALSO didnt fix it. This is so stupid i have nothing but problems with the battlefield games.

    Hey @Pain_Is_Living 

    Go to Battlefield folder on the external HDD and click on the BF.exe and make sure that origin is already running at this point. Origin should start downloading something but should go fairly fast.
