The updater server seems to either be overloaded or otherwise unstable. I think it\'ll be fixed in one or two days.

Oh, and you can edit your posts. ;)

Maybe you should find out if the game is worth it first? Maybe that\'s just my strange way of doing things. :)

PS is in Alpha stage development, and I mean heavy development. Things changing, breaking, fixing, being added, every day. Lots of bugs, and largely unbalanced as of yet. Everyone who wants to try this game should know this- you\'re becoming a tester, not a player of a fully-developed commercial game produced by a million-dollar company.

Anyone who plays PS and doesn\'t know this hasn\'t read a thing about the project, and its no wonder they leave fairly quickly.

Yes, I am aware what Beta Testing is about, forgive my rash out burst in my realm of frustration. :P

Oh, and thanks for pointing out the ability of being able to edit  posts.

Hope to see ya soon :P

Im just wondering if theres something im missing or not doing on my end of this, due to the fact that i havent seen any posts with the simular issue (perhaps i havent read every single thread, but pretty close)

Do you know what Pre-Alpha testing is then?
This is Open Beta on the Alpha stage, it\'s a certain difference

do you have the same problem with dl any other file\'s that are large?.
i had that problem with planeshift and anything else that was large. it turned out my internet provider sucked. i was using high speed cable and i switched back to adsl phone now i don\'t have the problem anymore. you might want to look into your upload download speed
