Download speed is very up and down but downloading Grand Theft Auto V was way worse.

Oh my God, i still have nightmares from that torture of a download. I live in a Student house were i get free internet, but it gets downgraded very heavily if i download too much. So i download all game at the university, because i have pretty fast downloads there and it doesn't matter how much i download, and then just put the files from my laptop to my main pc.
And downloading Gta5 was such a pain.
1. The Download Launcher refreshes itself as fast as it can and uses up the WHOLE processing power of a core while doing it. Drains battery life like nothing else.
2. The Download slows to a crawl (about 50 kb/s) when it's about to finish downloading a file, and you have to pause and restart the download when that happens so it doesn't take forever.
3. The Download randomly corrupts some of the files it downloads. So after downloading 60!!! gb i had to download 15!! again, then 5! again and finally a single file a fourth time, which was about 2 gb big. You have to check the integrity of the files yourself btw.
I don't think they could have made it any worse if they tried.
