Hello, I live in Iran because of internet filtering, I am experiencing 0.50 Mbit speed, which has downloaded 20 gigs in about 5 days, but I am updating for 15 hours a day. Is this reasonable? Put yourself in my place, will it be tolerated?
I copied a number of packages from my friend’s computer to my computer in the package folder and the game recognized it and no longer needed to download those packages.
So why doesn’t the company itself compress all the packages so that we can download them from the company’s website with faster links? Why do we have to use all these tricks to increase the speed? Is the speed of 0.50 Mbit really the same as a Microsoft client? Why is the payment done in two seconds to pay, but we have to waste our youth to download? Please accept my offer before the people of the world become more hostile to the company.

Iran’s fixed internet speed ranked 146th (out of 179 countries) while mobile internet speed was at 56th place (out of 138 countries) in January.
Do you have the option to use Mobile Internet to download MSFS updates ? Seems to be significantly faster ? Maybe overly expensive for large amounts of data ?
I don’t know which option you mean, but I have the best settings and it didn’t set any restrictions, but the cost doesn’t matter. I’ve been going crazy for 6 days, I just want the update to finish.
Internet speed problem in Iran is due to weak infrastructure and especially filtering.
I use the mobile internet with a USB connection to the computer and I have a good speed, for example, from Steam, at least my speed reaches 10 MB, but in the Msfs update, the value is 0.20 to 2.0 Mbit, which is very annoying, and I did everything you said, but there was no change.
I have bought a 100 gig night plan, it costs about 50 cents (200 thousand rials), it is not expensive.
Believe me, if advanced compression algorithms were used for packages and they could be downloaded and installed manually, it would be very good. Just look at the man’s protests on Steam. Really, if I were the sales manager of Microsoft’s game division, I would never sleep at night because Worry about this
In my opinion, a game developer should, in addition to the game itself, make it easy to update and manage the game so that the user can use it more easily, and this is a very good advertisement for the company, but difficult solutions for updating can waste the user’s time and cause dissatisfaction as well as bad feedbacks that disappoint others and stop them from buying. Anyway, I thank the efforts of all the agents of this game for this good and professional simulator and please change the update system as soon as possible. or at least provide other solutions for countries with weaker internet
I say upload the packages so that we can download and update manually. Is there a better idea?
It is strange that my speed is now between 6 and 9.0 Mbit and it has improved. I did not understand the reason. The downloaded packages seem to be only downloaded and not decompressed. I think the new update has been effective, right?
And that the completion percentage of the current package that is being downloaded is not displayed and the name of the package does not change, but the download is progressing and the overall percentage is increasing without any problem.
I downloaded 25 gigs from last night until now in about 17 hours. It was disconnected and reconnected for the update and the internet, and then I started again. Now it seems that only a few gigs have been accepted, and most of it was downloaded in vain and was not recognized. I’m tired, it’s been 100 hours, the simulator is downloading updates, but nothing happened. I’m tired
In total, I had about 250 gigs of unsuccessful downloads for the update, and I looked at every topic and did the tutorials, I followed every point, but no one is answering. My time and personality are more important than the money I have paid, but my personality is insulted. Why should we be ridiculed like this? Costing…not being able to use…losing our time and money…and no correction has been made by Microsoft.
I have all the respect for the creators of this game, but if I were in their place, I would definitely put an end to these problems with a media apology and a timely correction.
I am disappointed with the update and I have no patience because I have been involved for 7 days, but the problem was not solved
