At this rate, i will have it downloaded at monday, when probably i will have 5 minutes to see the graphics of the game... That in case i still have ppl in torrent to download...
Stopping emule for this, i shouldnt have even try. If this is the way they do things this doesnt look good.
If this was ANY other game i wouldnt play it at all. I am getting more and more dissapointed with this game, hope this doesnt get even worse or i will become berserk.

Blade with whom i have lived, blade with whom I now die. Serve right and justice one last time. Seek one last heart of evil. Still one last life of pain. Cut well old friend. Then farewell!

Once you download the game, you have about 300mb worth of patches, and the installation will take 40minutes to 1 hour.

Live and Learn.. Then Die and forget it all.

Dont know if this will help you but it worked for me. At times my downloads for the client dropped way down and after trying everything including turning off all security features I decided trying to reset my modem and after that the download went a lot faster. Just an idea, hope it helps.

As long as your enjoying the game and having fun, then that's all that matters.

Its not my router, i am downloading as fast as i can with torrent and the bandwith of my connection.

I shouldnt have started to download it...Not worth the anger i have against AoC devs now. I wasted my connection and pc energy for some days.

Maybe the game is great, BUT if we are going to see these kind of things happening in game, if we see that they dont care at all about ppl maybe its not the game. If it was free np, but spending lot of money in something that later you will have a very poor service maybe its not worth.

I don't understand why you are mad at the Devs. Did they encourage you to run on dial-up?

Seriously.  I started my download on Thursday night.  It took me roughly 12 hours to download, the next day I installed it before work.. then when I got home, I started playing.  So, either you're trying to install a 6GB file on dial-up, or you started downloading sometime today.  Both of which are kind of foolish if you actually got a beta key for it.

 

I think most people finished theirs in 4-8 hours.  I finished mine a little longer because I was downloading through the middle of the night with less seeders and so forth.  And honestly, if you do get it finished before tomorrow, you'll easily get through the Tortage Island section and be able to play quite a few PvP matches with multiple characters.  But, if you are on dial-up, you won't be able to ever do a PvP match.  Good luck.

Pain is fear leaving the body..

SHeesh I am still downloading and it aint gonna look like ill make it for even an hour on Monday.

What a waste. They should give it another few days or have another pvp weekend for folks that take 3 days or more to download the game. Judging from the gamespot comments, I am not alone with this issue.

Stop trying to play on dial-up.

Guess it goes to show how many people lied about their pc specs and connection speeds. To many complaints about both.

 

Wish i got in the pvp weekend tho :(

Well I used the gamestop downloader thing and it took me about 12 hrs on a standard dsl connection. I did have to restart it a couple times to get the next file going but overall it worked ok for me.
