drtechno Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 I guess the servers must be getting hammered because I was logged in and downloading 20 secs after I recv'd the email, which presumably we all recv'd at the same time. Battlefront servers were awesome, and I couldn't believe the speeds I got. So far, great game.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picked up Kitchen's Rommel's Desert War and started reading. 35 pages later, the game was in my download folder. Life is good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guachi Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 I was getting 3.5 MB/sec and I also started downloading as fast as I could click the link so that is about 6.5 minutes for me. Awesomely fast. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ankh Morpork Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 I had a wooping 13mb/sec here...so I was quite happy with it! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BulletRat Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Simple question - how big is the download? Here in the land of Oztraya our interweb is made up tin cans and bits of string and our internet companies give us maximum amounts of data we can download each month - in my case 12GB/month peak time (12pm-12am) and 24GB/month off peak time (12am-12pm). Hence, if the game is 10gigs or so in size I gotta wait till midnight rather than blowing my cap on it now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunnergoz Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 It's about 1.3 gigs, just a skosh more. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BulletRat Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Excellent! Think I can spare that much data. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ardem Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Well I just got it in 15 minutes, and being in Australia I was amazed, but then again I am on the fastest non-business connection. Sorry Bulletrat I am on 200Gig here (Telstra Exteme) I had to up it so my wife could watch eposide of jersey shore and other crap 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveyJJ Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Wow, do you guys have FIOS or Uverse? My office was empty of other co-workers and we have basically dedicated T3 speeds to our desk, with the office serviced by a redundant fibre optics line as well. When there are few staff here, I can fortunately get massive download speeds. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McTasty Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Wow, do you guys have FIOS or Uverse? What did i do to make you think i'm from the U.S.? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ardem Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Don't you know everyone is from the US that can speak english and if your not from the US they don't know where the hell your from. There is only the US and nowhere. <grin> 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pak40 Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 What did i do to make you think i'm from the U.S.? Well, it certainly wasn't the "fibre" spelling. Maybe it was the McTasty handle. Can you get more American than that? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
