Game Updates Atrociously Slow

This is the second time I've had an update for 2042 since getting the app, and it is an absolute chore. For a tiny update the app verifies, then downloads ridiculously slowly, then applies the update, which takes about 15 more minutes, then wants to verify the game atrociously slowly as well. On Origin this update would have been done an dusted in less than 15 minutes. So far, its taken over 2 hours just to get to this point. Why in the world are the updates so slow via the EA App? Its not even a big update either. Not only that, but it was lagging up my browser while downloading it, which Origin never did.

  • @Moab23 I have same problem. Btw. I didnt uninstall Origin, and I had installed EA before mandatory change of these lauchers. Therefore I had both now. Origin made "download EA" alert everytime if I start him. BUT, Origin still can automaticly update games. Therefore I have live comparison of download from both launchers. You are right, Origin is more time faster, than EA with same update. (tested on Apex)

    @JanPalachCEO I sadly had Origin replaced by the EA App. Problem is, I've had a big update I put off for Apex for a long time. I don't even want to think how long it would take to download it.
