Preload Download Progress Keeps Regressing
I have been trying to download DAI since it became available yesterday. During that time my download progress keeps regressing. It doesn't happen at the same point every time, but it'll continually...

So i talk with nills (i think) and he told to create a file with the code

cdnOverride=akamai
And a i did aaand the regression actually stopped. But at 300mb lefting to finish the thing the download speed start to went 0 all the time, my internet is fine. And then i couldn't open origin, or login on the foruns. So i did all the manually unistall/reinstall **bleep** and now nothing appears my game library, the games still are on the origin games folder they just aren't appearing on my library. I have no words for this.
Update: My games are back and download its done, the game is running smoothly. I hope everyone get sorted too.
@d4rthur I'm pretty sure Origin was hacked or hit with a ddos recently, which is what probably caused the problem. I was given the same solution you were and it didn't work for me. You might have just gotten lucky and were able to download it (as some people have been reporting to be able to do), or your problem is different from the one I am suffering. Either way, it doesn't seem to be a universal fix. Hope you get everything worked out and your download does go through, though.

ditto 🙂 ... not sure about the DDOS/Hacked bit but at the end of the day it is irrelevant, the problem is EAs and I hold them responsible for the issues we are having now. IF it is down to a server hack, they should have sufficient protected (i.e. off-line) backups to recover from it. As for DDOS, the software should be robust enough to cope with the resulting communication errors. Ultimately, EA are at fault and we should not try to make excuses for them,
Hi Guys,
Just a quick heads up, tried shutting down the Steam client while downloading from Origin and got to 80+% with the TitanFall DLC but then it regressed back to ~20% (was previously paused at ~40%). Suffice to say, the root cause would appear to not be a conflict between Origin and Steam.
@EA: This is getting beyond a joke - this issue has persisted for over 7 days now and while the direct personal contact by EA personnel (~incident day 5) is a nice touch there needs to be some kind of official public announcement with an indication of expected time to resolution over this issue IMO.
