I havent played since October but i FINALY purchased the final parts to MY PC, which will arrive next week. Im flat broke till next payday, which my insurance needs to be paid :( so i need a free trial for a while. But here is my new custom PC :)

If i use that 30day trial dont i have to DL the WHOLE game? I want to be able to install the disks then update because the updates alone are enough, even on my 384k DSL i would think.

umm....Yes, you MUST download the game. Otherwise you can go to your local computer store and buy it on a disk, then update.

I have PlanetSide already so can i install that then update and use the trial? Anyways, how long would it take to DL all updates on a 384k DSL? Also, how long if i had to DL the WHOLE game and updates?

I think it will work if you already have it on disk. Load it into your computer, have them email you your code, and enter it in and see if it works. It only updates after you type in your login and password.
It took about 6-7 hours to DL on cable for me.

After I installed PS from CD, the update took about 45min on cable. But according to the conection speed test I just took, this ISP gives me 363kps to d/l with.

Niiiice comp man...gettin my new one around 6PM tonight
I don't think there is a 7-day trial anymore, but if you have a real life friend ask him to get you a buddy key and then ask him to borrow his Planetside CDs cause it doesn't work with the version that you get online.
