I can't argue with you on that! You are perfectly right.

I won't make any promises(as usual :)), but your ideas will be kept in
mind when for later patching.

Thanks

That issue could have  been handled by a configuration for
max bandwith usage per download slot, and max number of
download slots, couldn't it? Action item for later patch...? :-)

Also an action item for later patch? This solution would be
the preferred one I guess. For people (like us at Battlefield.no)
wich have a file server where we put all this stuff.
