Or you could just read the first page and get all your questions answered.

ok now it just spiked to like 120 hours...

...... now what?!?!?

Mazuli · 2003-04-18, 02:12 AM

I have a sig but it's an old one that I used when I went by Polar.

Ignore the white patches, I can't find the transparent version.

If you think this patch is going to be fast, you are deeply deluded. According to the producer letter, there are 60,000 beta accounts out there. All of them need this patch. Accounting for delivery time of discs, but counter-compensating because lots of people need to DL the WHOLE 2GB of game and not just the 300MB patch...let's say 40,000 people are trying right NOW (there will be more tommorow as more people get discs)..

300 MB * 40,000 people = 12 Terabytes to be downloaded. Why yes, that is twelve TRILLION bytes.

If you think that SOE's internet connection can handle this with no difficulty, I would suggest that you seek professional medical assistance.

LOL nice calculations!!!

1 hrs 30 to go

Sarah Jinstar · 2003-04-18, 06:28 AM

300 megs?? omg... well if I do manage to get discs this morning perhaps I'll be able to play by tonight at some point, once the patch finishes heh.

Sindustry · 2003-04-18, 08:27 AM

As long as I get my CDs today, it's cool. I'll gladly go through a huge dl to play this. Even though I have cable, I'm sure it'll take a long time.

Confectrix · 2003-04-18, 08:38 AM

I have to get my Cd's. If I have to wait until tomorrow; I think the Post Office will have a very pissy customer [if you can call me that].

Sarah Jinstar · 2003-04-18, 08:52 AM

Oh I wasn't complaining guys not at all

Just joking that once we get our cd's today we'll be waiting a bit to play while downloading a 300meg patch on what is prolly a very congested soe server right now. Kinda humorous if you really think about the situation of us waiting as long as we have for discs, then having to wait some more.
