**Just a heads up, this is something that worked for me, there is no guarantee that this will work for you. Please understand this before you complain about it not working!** Alright so if you're here I'm sure you should already know of the stupidly slow install speed of EFT. Well I searched everywhere I couldn't find a definite answer that ensured results. But one thing I did, (whether recommended/safe or not) did seem to drastically work. This "fix" is a simple change of your DNS server. Before changing this I was getting the usual 15 - 50 KB/s, but afterwards I was getting 750 KB/s - 1.5 MB/s. If you don't know how to access and change your network DNS I will be providing a link to where I found this, otherwise if you do know how to access and change your DNS, you will be changing your Preferred DNS to: 208.67.222.222 and your Alternate DNS to: 208.67.220.220 After successfully changing this, restart your PC, and try your download again. Just as a side note, I also do run the program as administrator, not sure if that makes a difference. So after this process, if it does work, you should see a very obvious change in download speed. If this did not work for you, I'm not sure what to say. Really hope this helps!

Hello everyone! I have an issue after the latest patch, that never appeared befor! So tried to download the latest update for the game and for some reason the maximum download speed i reach was 5-10 kb/s. Took me around 1 hour to download the 50 mb patch. After the download finished, i tried to start EFT but i got an error that state: "Game files corrupt please reinstall the game". I wanted to reinstall the game anyway's because i never did it befor and i pretty much play since alpha. So i deleted the game and started the download and guess what happend pretty much the same.. Maximum downloadspeed i reached was 20kb/s and i normaly download with around 10 mb/s. Well tried to reinstall the launcher but even when i was downloading from the offical homepage i got the same speed again around 20 kb/s... I tried so much stuff nothing worked out even tried out: Vpn's, port forwarding, changing dns server, running as admin in high priority, deleting all existing files from eft, restarting my router, restarting pc, checked window's updates, disabling firewall, checked if there is no anti virus running, closed all unnecessary program's, tried to download the game via browser link but nothing helped! I still manage to download the launch but after i tried to install the game i got an error (Check screenshot). https://i.gyazo.com/2ec9013dba867b779fb293bc497ab926.jpg So i pretty much out of option's and idear's. I spend around 2 hour's in the forum and apprently some people have the same issue without getting any help (got an automated reply from the support which didn't helped me at all) or they could fix it by running the launcher as an admin but i did that changed absolutely nothing! I'am pretty disappointed that the support, can't help me they basicly just ignore my/our issue without really looking into it, I mean i spend 150 Euro for the game, i expect some sort of helpful reply not an automated email... Also this isnt a new thing alot of people still have the issue and they make post's in the forum but no one seems to have an idear how to fix it properly.. And btw it was working fine for me befor like 4-5 patches. I tried my best to make this understandable. I hope this text is readable don't judge me i'am from germany and english is not my native language and i pretty much haven't really learned it in school it's all self taught

I bought this game last Saturday and have still not managed to install it. I spent 4 days downloading this at 50kb/s only to have it corrupt at 99%. I have also tried every fix that I could find while searching the forum and have run out of things to do. I usually manage to get 4mb/s on any other game launcher and this just doesn't make sense. I have seen people state that the devs do not have a fix, yet this problem seems to date back months (really wishing I had looked harder for problems before buying this game). I was told to submit a ticket and this website does not even allow me to do that as I typed out my issue and when I click "submit" it does absolutely nothing. I just reinstalled the launcher and its the same. Someone said the devs emailed him a link to download the files online as opposed to through the launcher but I cannot contact support as the support link simply does not work for me. Does anyone out there have any ideas as to what to do next. I bought CyberGhost 7 as I was told using a VPN may help but it does not make any difference at all and that was my last option. Thanks in advance.

I just purchased EFT and I cannot seem to pass 100kb/s. I was stuck at 40kb/s prior and was told I needed a VPN, after purchase of the VPN I am now at 100kb/s (not very helpful lol) my friend who lives down the street also bought it and downloaded it in 40 minutes. I have tried every fix on the forum and nothing works. I have tried to submit a ticket to support and it does not even allow me to. Anyone else still suffering from this issue and does the Dev team simply ignore it?

Dear Dev's, or comunity maybe you can help me. I normaly have a download rate of 10 mB/s. Since the last few days I have a rate of 110 kB/s with your launcher. What is happening? I hope you can help me.

When I bought this game on 2/23 it ran perfectly so I thought. I can spawn any wear on factory with every one els but on any other map It takes about 3 extra mins to spawn from the the spawn time count down, but when ever it takes that long or even randomly it will lag for about 2 more minutes (even if i spawn in with every one els on factory) . This is horrible for playing with my friend because most of the time he will die before im even in the game. My specs are gtx 1080 ti founders, 8 gigs of gram, i76700 processor, 1.80 teribite of data 1 teribite left, windows 10, really goood inter net about 100+ megabits perscond when this game is running for too long it gets worse but for some reason when i first got the game i did not have this problem, could it be the stash size? Its the only thing I can think of also when i finaly spawn in it lagggs like crazy most of the time, if your going to say the ram i dont go above 80% memory in task manager it stays at about 60 when other games and thats fine on other games but what dos catch my eye is the fact that my disk on the task mangier is almost all ways is on 99% but it is all ways at 99% for other games and i dont have a problem with other games when its above 99%,so disk is 99 and memory is 60%-(sometimes 80%) 90% of the time my settings in the game are at medium and iv tryed about everything like resarting game, computer,internet only having tarkov open,other than uninstalling the game because i am scared that ill lose my stuff

I just buy the game today,dowload the game client and start download the game but the download is super slow like 90kbs it take an eternity for 4gb i have a internet connection 100mbs please give me an answer i spend 50 buck for this game . I tried anything for speedup the download and nothing happens like reset the modem,close anything active in my pc ,my region is EU and i live in italy .

So I've noticed occasionally my PMC will start walking extremely slow as if I had pressed the actual walk key, but I didn't because I can still hear myself moving, and also it happens when my legs aren't damaged. Is this a feature of the game? Like is my bag too full or something? Or is this more of a glitch?

Bonjour à tous, J'ai eu aujourd'hui comme plusieurs autres joueurs de la beta, un problème pour télécharger le jeu. J'ai une fibre d'1gb/s dans les deux sens et pourtant je ne pouvais dépasser les 170kb/s sur le launcher. En cherchant avec certains membres du discord EFT FR, nous avons trouvé qu'en passant sous VPN ce problème était résolu, je suis donc passé de 170kb/s à 20mb/s. Je vous conseil donc d'aller vous prendre un petit VPN gratuit sur le net (y'en a vraiment des tonnes) et de relancer le téléchargement une fois sous le réseau privé. Bon jeu à tous.
