how to limit/throttle download speed in EA Desktop app ?

[BrotherJuunas]

Your excuse of it still being in development is equivalent to having Lamborghini giving out their first manufactured commercial car without brakes after having tested, experienced and improved the concept of vehicle transportation nearly every day for the last 25 years.

I know you work for EA but maybe you can see how utterly foolish it is?

I understand it's alot to expect but after years of endless cash-grabs, false promises, dissapointing revelations and crushed expectations from the company you answer for it's quite reasonable to wonder how the most basic feature wasn't in there in the first place, let alone after what was it now, 1 year?

*sigh*

(note that I am in no way mad with you, heck, I'm not even mad at all tbh. We're used to it by now, it's just an outmost dissapointment all though not a suprisingly one)

Wish you the best.

EA.. realy????
Until now there is no speedlimiter for  downloads implemented 🤣😁🤣😁🤣😁
thats why this publisher got the worst reputation for.... nearby everything... 

you can only feel sorry for the programmers themselves!

if you have such project managers, salespeople and

ceo's as supervisors... you definitely don't need any more enemies 😒😏

game shop/library/downloader without the functionality to control the download speed...
Battlefield 2042 (back to the roots eh?) without a scoreboard and chat xD

some AAA Slotmachine-Games with skins/design's of the most famouse Sporttypes 

so please....  .... increases the team of programmers...

because if gamers, wich already spend so much money for not realy useful things like "weaponskins"
or something like that, will pay even more money for this things if the game awsome to play
 without all this sad+rage+frustrating moments every EA published game regularly brings with it...





puuuhhh..... 120gb DL finished 

i hope BF2042 is fixed so far that I do not lose the connection to the server or the map
absorbs my soldier every 5-10 minutes, like two weeks ago...

Why not just add a custom limit. yea know, like everyone else.

um not sure if this will work, but windows->settings->updates and security->Delivery Optimization->Advanced Options....This is where you set windows main throttle, this will only effect apps like ea and xbox from what I found. so 18mpbs /8 is 21.25mega BYTES a second. its just divisible by 8 for your speed preference in those boxes.

this works for xbox app and ea app for me. Mbps is divisible by 8 remember so if you put say 17 into those boxes your download speed would be 2megae bytes a second.

this is how i fixed the issue for xbox's pc app, it works for the ea one also for me, test it out.

That's not a solution. Boy it's hard to do you job.

This is really important. Please add this!

Gotta bump this thread, still don't see it being added as a future feature. For now I'm just going to stick with origin since it's required anyways to launch most EA games on steam.

Bumping this up. June 2022  tomorrow and still nothing.

I guess "the technology just isn't there yet".

What a joke
