So ever since patch 19 all of the updates, SPECIFICALLY for Mordhau, have taken an insane amount of time.

Now with the latest hotfix that was supposed to be like 481MB, has risen for no reason to now 2.3GB and rising.

Unpacking, downloading, allocating space, and installing all take an incredibly long time. This is not a steam issue, it's your updates. Every other game on steam I have tried is perfectly fine except for Mordhau. I get speeds of 13MB down for other games, a max of 5MB down for Mordhau.

My game and steam is on my SSD, 8 core 16 thread cpu, 32GB RAM. Not a hardware issue.

I've tried switching download servers and clearing my steam cache to no avail.

Does anyone know of a fix?

We're working on it, we've found the issue a week ago but not the reason why it happens yet. It's a particularly insidious issue related to nondeterministic cooking in Unreal Engine that must've cropped up at one point and has gotten progressively worse since, which makes tracking it down quite difficult.
