Madmatt Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 After years of waiting, Theatre of War is finally being released and to celebreate the event we are happy to make available the game demo.

Dr. Zoidberg Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 I saw "Demo" in the title of a sticky, and immediately jumped.. But apparently it's TOW, not CMSF That will teach me to read the forums when I'm half-asleep. Ah well, good enough for now! Eagerly downloading.

MikeyD Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 1 hour 29 minutes and counting in my own download time. Remember, I'm the space chimp who's running Windows on a newly partitioned Intel mac. i'm VERY curious about whether this demo is going to behave itself on my setup or not. If the demo runs on my machine they've got a guaranteed sale. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellfish Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 I downloaded it in about 15 minutes last night. I was impressed with that alone, nevermind the cool demo... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Since Matts announcement is dated 10pm yesterday it sounds like you might've grabbed the first download on an open line! I shudder to think how many people are now trying to download this same demo all at the same time. :eek: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moon Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Some of the mirrors are indeed maxing out... Martin 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Radley Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 I went from download site to download site until I got one that wasn't maxed out. I started it and went to lunch. Now I'll burn it to CD and take it home and see if I can even play the thing on my old box. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rune Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Boo, try a computer, it works much better then putting the cd on a box and staring at it like usual. Rune 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rune Right. This from the guy who begged me (Yes! BEGGED!) to Beta test ToW and then sent me the wrong files. rune, whenever I think of you, I subconsciously hear a badly out of tune kazoo band. Why do you think that is? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
