I started this 218 MB download around 6pm and then went to make dinner. I came back and it was still downloading.
It took 2 hours and 17 minutes to finish installing a 218MB update, during which I couldn't do anything else or it would slow down even more. Why?!
Nothing else was running on my PC at the time. I have a ~10MB/s internet plan. Router was rebooted less than 12 hours prior.
My hard drives are nowhere near full, I have 32GB RAM, and a 4GHz AMD FX(tm)-8350 Eight core processor.
This has been happening since Early Access and literally every other game I own finishes much larger updates in a matter of minutes if not seconds.
Even Dark and Light which has a similar issue isn't anywhere near as bad as this.
Why is it only ARK that's having this problem to this extent, and why has nobody bothered to fix it?
My suggestion is you fix it before you add more content that will take another 8 hours to download, and only IF it doesn't glitch out and force you to start all over three times.
I'm lookin' at you, Extinction DLC.
