And I find it disappointing that it is only active forum members. Although I dont post here that much Ive been with the game for over a year now, since june \'03. I was thinking that they would do it this way, considering the game holds no personal information (such as email address).

Ah well. Grono, if I may ask, how big is/was the download?

Well, I\'m not sure I\'m allowed to say the number (NDA stuff... Talad is very strict about all that), however, it took me ~50 minutes with a steady 52.7KB/s. *hint*

That\'s not all of the stuff though. Only the art and engine files, so the download for the first public release is most likely  a big bit bigger than that. :)

What she means is, the closed alpha is about 150mb. This doesn\'t include sounds or music, so you\'re looking at maybe a 200+mb download for the first public cb release :)

That\'s a pretty good size, will there be a torrent? I\'d heard a rumour, but is it fact? I hope so. TorrentStorm is my friend.

Because the cb download will get packed and some people like me have fussy internet connections so bit torrents dont work

If the download is going that large (assuming this the windows executable) will there be a fully packed linux binary available for download?

once cb is released to the public, as long as the downlaod works at whatever speed is better then nothing!!

I\'m going to sit and watch every byte trickle onto my hdd :tongue:

Surely the devs will have some contingency worked out to account for the stream of downloads. I love bit torrent. It\'s great. Naruto is so much easier to download.
