I think I will play computer chess when I get home tonight. 

I've been playing chess online this morning and I am the one that crashes there>>> lost 45 points from my rating already while waiting for the servers to lighten up

Why would world updates have to be reinstalled?

 

Presumably because they've updated some aspect of them to tie in with the new engine.

I'm getting my usual download speeds in the content manager at least. Not slower than normal.

Bleh...I'll update later then...not worth the hassle...this was expected

You just click download and the sim will be downloaded and installed while you do something else. What's the hassle?

1hr 50m in and it's just hit 50%    Feels like downloading adult pictures on dial up in 1998.    Time for a nap I think.

Old school PC Simmers are now getting a taste of a typical Call of Duty Release/Patch cycle where servers get slammed and everything goes at a crawl.

We'll have to wait until our friends in Europe go to bed before we download in the US. You guys are going to bed, right? 😄
