Anyone know a fast place to download this game? I signed up for the trial yesterday and started downloading, but at the rate its going my trials gonna be over before i even get to play the game. Its like 17hours estimate time left and the stupid soe servers are slow as hell. i got 1.5mb connection so it really should be like a 4hour download. Thanks for any feedback :)

You can download it from FilePlanet (http://www.fileplanet.com/150133/150000/fileinfo/PlanetSide:-Aftershock-%5BDigital-Purchase%5D) even though it is digital purchase just download it and login with the trial account you created - then all you have to do is download patches.

Thanks :) wish i had a fileplanet subscription, cause the free fileplanet servers are just as slow, jumping around 30-45kb/s:(

Why would it be that long?I downloaded the game before when you could get a trial off the internet instead of relying on other poeple for the trials they get when you buy it and it I know it didn't take that long.

The launcher is a strange animal.
