EA installs BitRaider, reduces long patch s, patch on the fly? We Hope so.
Launcher Update Patch Notes e4b45
New Launcher Feature: Streaming Mode! The Launcher now uses a streaming mode, which will allow new players to begin playing prior to ing the entire game.
- Current players with an existing installation:
- All patching and playing functions are as before, as the streaming mode offers no advantage.
- All new installs of the game will see the new streaming interface.
- After an initial period, the “Play” button will be active and players can create a character and begin the Origin World experience as the rest of the game s in the background.
- The time it takes to get to a playable state depends on the speed of your Internet connection:
- On a standard 6Mb/s connection, you should be ready to play in under 2 hours.
- For Internet connection speeds that are less than 6Mb/s, we suggest that players allow the install to complete before playing.
- For Internet connection speeds that are less than 1.5Mb/s, players will encounter a very poor experience attempting to play while ing in the background, and it is highly recommended that the is allowed to complete before playing.
- Current players who are reinstalling to a new PC or location must wait for the to complete before playing any existing characters.
It’s good to increase overall interest in this game.
