This is ridiculous! 6 hours (only 10% downloaded) and has said 44 hours to go for most of that time. I could have driven to the shop, bought it, come home installed and been playing for hours. FIX YOUR SERVER ORIGIN!
I WILL NEVER BUY AN ORIGIN GAME ONLINE AGAIN, AND POSSIBLY NEVER AN ORIGIN GAME EITHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's not Origin's fault and it would happed with any other digital download client such as Steam. There could be any number of factors affecting your donwload speed such as your local interet provider throttling large downloads, the internet package that you bought (some packages offer faster donwload and upload speeds for paying more per month) or generally slow internet in certain regions. In order to maximize your download speed ensure that your PC is hardwired into your router instead of using wireless, and try to download at off peak hours since the most people are playing games, downloading videos and wathcing net flicks during the6:00-10:00 PM time frame which takes up ISP bandwidth and slows your download speeds. Also make sure that your PC isn't being used for anything else durig the download because using the computer will take up system resources and slow the donwload speed.
I have verizon FIOS fiber optic internet and it will took 4 hours to donwload all of the Premium expansion packs (not counting the base game which was already installed), just be patient and it will eventually download.

what about the fact that i downloaded bf3 while simultaneously downloading arma 2. while downloading bf3 alone i got 130KB/s. but when i downloaded just arma 2 i got 1.5 MB/s. this is not my problem. this is your service thats not living up to your promises. i also checked my speeds at pingtest. i got a constant 1.5 MB/s down and 0.5 MB/s up. i have tried everything from disabling firewall to adding orgin to the firewall exceptions. from turning off UAC to changing the DEP settings. check your problems. if this is the case, i will not buy BF4. from what i have seen of your service in the past few days, i have decided not to pre-order bf4. if this problem goes on i will not buy another origin product..
sincerly,
a very unhappy customer you might loose soon
