I bought The Sims 4 yesterday. I finally got the game to actually to download today. After two and a half hours, it finally gets to 1%. I've seen many people with the same problem, but I figured I'...

There are 3 different reasons that logically make sense as to why this is happening.
1.) If you have a really old computer or bad WiFi such as a long distance, very little bars, or a hotspot, that causes almost any download to go really slow.
2.) Another reason is if the download keeps getting interrupted. What I mean by "interrupted" is, if there is maybe another program such as maybe a web page, another game, or a file, this could also be the problem. Its good to close out ALL other open programs and DO NOT keep opening and closing the download itself (origin or ea download manager) because that can also effect the download. The last thing to this reason is LEAVE YOUR COMPUTER ALONE! In other words try setting the settings on your pc/mac to sleep after...NEVER! That was a big problem for me!
The third reason is me letting you know that this problem happens to more than 93% people who download it. Patience is very important because you don't want to loose all of your patience and take the game back. It honestly took about 17 hours for it to fully install. It is good to start the process at about 6pm so you can get ready to go to bed and wake up to about 95%.
