    Some had long download times, I think it depends on the computer. It took four and half hours for mine to download. I'm sorry it's taking so long but don't worry, just let it sit, it should be fine. It is installing the entire collection after all.

    It took 5-6 hours for Origin to download the UC for me. That is one reason why I prefer physical discs.

    origin usually is quite a bit slower than a disc for me too but my computers disc drive is broken :evil:

    It actually depends on internet connection, not someones computer. It took me almost two hours.

    Edit to add: When you first start up the game it will take a while to set up. Let it sit and load for a while. 20-30 minutes Then any time after that the game should load up normally.

    It took mine almost the whole night to download, but then again it also forced my computer to go from a Windows 8 to a Windows 8.1. But still it took a long time once it got past that part.

    I'm so surprised to see such long downloading times.

    My Sims 2 UC took less than 15 minutes.

    Mine took 10 mins to DL, DL times depend on how your ISP is set up. I have Comcast which offers 4 tiers of internet speeds and each cost more than the other. I have Blast which is the third tier that gets me speeds up to 55Mbps. Some ISPs offer 1 tier which may get you a speed of 3 to 5 Mbps while better than dial up it is still slow DL'ing large files.
