Welcome to PlaneShift!

Always great to see a new face, and one that takes the time to write out a decent introduction ;) Hope you enjoy what the game and community has to offer so far!

Ooooh gods Rufus you just made me soooo happy.

That\'s a perfect introduction to the people on the forums :) ..unlike some others we\'ve seen here..

Anyway, a warm welcome to Planeshift, never forget that it is tech demo, but I bet you knew that already.

Oh and have fun in game, guess I\'ll meet you there :D

I just attempted to download the Client from a official mirror site but the dowload was over my limit, my internet provider only allows 145 MB worth of downloading a day, and it stopped at 145 forcing me to cancel it at 57%

I am currently attempted the BitTorrent way of getting the client but so far ive had no luck, it wont even start

Though, i am still working at it and plan to get it one way or another ASAP, probably going to bring a Data Cube to a friends and dump it on or have someone send it through email.

you\'re better off with the data cube/cd. the one canadian isp i know well and the other that i use will probably choke on that as an attachement. and neither of them have such an odd limit on them.

as i chase it out. have them install and update it as well. it will have on the load on your connectiion, and hen just copy the ps folder to the [insert device].i don\'t think there are and reg keys that have to go over. mostly becuase my sister-in-law, did that with no trouble.

 just for curiousity who are you with

A friend has offered to download it tonight and give it to me tommorow, i have to give him a Blank CD and 2$ for his troubles.

He isnt to reliable so im still trying desperatly to find other ways to get the game tonight.

So if anyone knows of any for me to get the game, i am open to suggestions

that 145 mb per day limit you\'ve got limits your choices. looks like it is either going to be torrent or somebody else\'s connection.

Hello, Rufus. I, your fellow newbie also pride my self on punctuation, grammer and spelling. Just a thing you might try:

Start the download at 11:30 PM, then maybe you\'ll use up the day\'s limit for the first and second days and still get the whole file.

Note: if it doesn\'t work, please don\'t kill me...  :P

*EDIT*

I\'m Crimsonn Draycko ingame, and I can\'t wait to meet you.  :)

This morning the Bus\'s Were cancelled giving me a free day to do what i wanted, unfortunatly what i wanted was to play planeshift, and that involved a 45 minute walk to my friends house, in the country, in the freezing rain, icy roads, and cold, and a 45 minute walk back in the same conditions. Luckily i only fell on my face once, but got soaked, but it was all worth it. I am currently running the Planeshift Updater, and hopefully i can be on soon :)
