[BUG] Pause button in launcher doesn't pause download

[MazdaCharles]

I'm reinstalling the game and I needed to pause the download for a bit because while it's going no other webpage will load. I noticed pushing the pause button doesn't do anything. It keeps downloading.

Not trying to gravedig too hard but this is still happening to me. Is the pause button broken or is it just a really misleading graphic that's not supposed to have any functionality?

 

Doesn't seem to be a way to embed/attach images to this post so here's a screenshot of what I'm referring to: https://s27.postimg.org/mhdegcrtf/screen.png (ignore the crappy half-circle)

Are you trying to pause while it's "downloading", or while it's "installing" whatever bit it just downloaded? You can only pause while it's actually downloading, not while it's installing.

 

**Edit

Or it may be something with the "streaming" launcher, and it not being done with the "minimum download". I use the original, non-streaming launcher, and never have any problem pausing the download, if I want to.

Just while downloading, it's installing currently and there's no pause button. I didn't even have a choice with the launcher, I just downloaded it off the site and it auto-updated itself with no prompt.
