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.
I have hoped they would fix it by now but no luck. This problem never happened to me before when I was downloading other DA games but they were not this big so may be I simply didn't notice. My fix is which is not a fix really copy the last progressed cas files from data folder as a back up and if I notice download regressed again I shut down origin and guess what one of the finished cas files (when they hit 1gb) is deleted gone. So I replaced it with my back up file. This is so frustrating I have to keep watching the progress and now after 3 days it is finally reached %55 ... I preordered the game one day before Friday at I am still trying to download. Good luck to everyone still trying to download like me. My internet is not really fast so I won't probably finish downloading at least two days more.

I had the same problem you guys were having for 2 days. It never dowloaded more than 3 GB before restarting: Here is how I fixed it last night. Rebooted into Windows with safe mode and networking turned on. Openend Origin and starting downloading. It still restarted a couple times but it only went down 5-10 percent. So I would let it download about 2GB then quickly pause and restart. Its a tedious process but it eventually downloaded fully and everything is working now, game runs good. I'm lucky I have pretty fast internet because it only took like an hour 10 to dwld.
