And Anarchy \"Online\" isn\'t an online game?? Oh, and it\'s .exe file isn\'t one hell of an .exe file.. actually only 656kb :P

The game runs virtually lag free on machines with enough RAM even with a 56k, and it has about 7 zones (or more) for each room... So I don\'t see why it should be a problem...

download speed doesn\'t really matter much in Online games, since the amount of data transfered isn\'t very large...

yeah, and best of all; it\'s possible!

and if made just a bit like that of Anarchy, it would allow accesible rooms in every building...!

That would give thieves something to do, or burglars :P

I don\'t see why not something similar should be added.. It actually makes the cities more lifelike if you are able to break into peoples homes :P:P


sounds like instanced environments... and from what I\'ve heard the dev team is split on that issue... although they might have decided for or against it by now

I don\'t see why we shouldn\'t be able to go into every building, it makes the game a lot more lifelike and fun to explore. Besides, I thought the .exe didn\'t contain the map, I thought that was in a seperate file? Correct me if I\'m wrong. Oh, wait, are you talking about the download?
