@Warcyd If you go into notifications on your PS4, you can choose to either pause or cancel which game to download. The paused game will automatically resume when the other games has finished downloading.
To speed up downloads a bit either close all open applications or restart your console (you might need pause one of the downloads again if doing the latter) and put the console into rest mode either overnight or whenever you won't be accessing the console. If you have any devices that use the same Wi-Fi, take them off.
Life is more fun when you help people succeed, instead of wishing them to fail.
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.
@Warcyd I have slow internet too but I've never used to download anything bigger than 5 GB. If you plan to download a 50 GB+ then you should reconsider your options or be very patient...
@Warcyd best bet is to only download one at a time and put the console in rest mode say before you go to work or go to sleep, it should be done by the time you get back/wake up then download the other one, it will download as your playing the first game and then if it's not finished put it in rest mode again when you go to bed and the next day it should be done
but if your on a slow connection you really shouldn't be downloading multiple things at once

I started a download of a free game (20gb), later, when the download reached 70mb, I turned off the ps4. When I turned it back on, the download re-started where it left off.
Seems like good news, but Im afraid that could cause damage to the game, not the free one, but those im planning to purchase.
@Warcyd don't worry it won't cause any damage to the games, it just picks up from where it left off

I know you like to post but let's keep it relevant to what the OP is asking instead of posting for the sake of posting.
