Bang for you Buck
You know after all the P_ssing, and Moaning about this game, in the beginning.. And I did my fair share. I have to say this is a Huge game, with and UN-godly amount of things to find, and explore...

If it wasn't behind the awful Origin platform more people would probably give it a go after the updates and of course time is a great healer.
I've been trying to download the title for over eight hours and EA Origins is just a horrible mess.
I could probably have downloaded, installed and actually ran a pirate version (I'm sure it exists by now) in less time it's taken to get to a cancelled sub 41% download, not enough to play and stayed at 0 kb/s despite turning off all other programs on Windows 10.
I know EA wants to be in control and thus they created Origins but they don't have the servers or the expertise required to make it user friendly.
As I write I'm at under 120 KB/Sec so it's going to take a while if it even finishes this time.
I truly feel for you, having a low bandwidth download speed. I mean you may have a really good service provider.
I live in a rural area, and have only one choice in a service provider for DSL, and there is no cable ( I could maybe get satellite service, but everyone knows it is terrible for any twitch games )
anyway I think my best dl speed is like 2 meg, sometimes, but a lot of the time it is about 1.5, and less. It took me like 4 or 5 days to finally get this game. That was one of the worst parts of it, this "Down Load Only" is pretty hard on me.
I recently got Quantum break, because I got supposedly the entire game on disk, but I finished the first act, and they want you to be online all the time, for streaming video.
Screw them, I uninstalled the game, and threw it on the shelf.. ( Sure you can skip the Streaming video, but that's half the fun of the story. and I do not like being constantly connected. ) so I truly hate Quantum break for sure. This was a Microsoft deal, they want you online all the time...WHY ? I think is something very fishy about that. ( Like the camera in there X-Box one, and the Microsoft person who disappeared after he said it will be great information gathering being able to see everyone's living room )
But Hope you enjoy the game once you get it.
