How do I download on FTP? mine is asking for a log on and password

 

Means that the servers are full/overworked. Use the Torrent if you are able - will get the job done.

I tried the torrent, however my ETA for download to complete is 1 year, 9 months, 2 weeks, 4 days and 19 hours. That is not an exageration lol. I think I will have to suck it up and wait a week to download it. I have COX high speed internet, I think I may have to call custormer support about this, my dsl is as fast as dial up.

For some unknown reason mine speeded up ... less than 50kB/s since yesterday and the last 40% came down at 500K in about an hour. No idea why, perhaps someone was standing on the wire ...

 

I'm a rookie user myself, but from what I've read- it seems normal. Mine fluctuated up and down from fax machine to supercomputer for an overall average of about 560 kpbs over about 4 hours. The only time I got pissed off is when I observed a pretty well sustained run @ around 1.2 mb drop to a crawl for the last remaining 2% or so...

 

I intended to stay on and seed- which I did. But I came upstairs about ... an hour or so after I was downloaded to find it had shut down on it's own.. no idea why.

Apparently they are getting hammered by all the requests to download. The US FTP servers are pretty fast but still I only just got in for the setup and the first file. The other two files I had to get off the German FTP.

 

As for a torrent....not on your life. I did that for a while and its about as reliable as asking a hooker to hold your wallet while you walk away.

Torrents start slow and pickup speed quite a bit.

 

Currently seeding at ~250kb

But it works superb and is fast (1,2Mb/sec on avg here) as long as you have enough seeders.

I have it downloaded and left my computer on all night and today to act as a seeder for torrent. Can't wait to get home and pay for a key so I can start learning this bad boy. :)

im using Bit Torrent 7.2 to seed but I cant seem to get it to do anything. I created new Torrent using the 4 Setup files and they are showing on the status part of the screen but they are not showing any activity. It says its seeding but its not actualy doing anything :helpsmilie:

I don't know much about torrents. I've only used them for BS, now A10, FC2 and GoldenEye Source! Anyway. I'm now seeding, having downloaded and installed the game. Why is it that I'm still downloading at 0.1 kb/s and have supposedly downloaded 0.1 GB more than the total file size. Why would this be? Is this usual?
