They're more stable then IE and Firefox.. and a torrent is designed to handle small bits of information so i rarly corrupts yes. And if it does it's only that 1 bit of it.

And since it'll be tomorrow, I'm sure there will be many a people dling at the same time, so it'll be uber1337 fast.

Correct, especially when people on your own ISP (and net-near, i.e. 1 ASN away with large peering connections between them) are sharing the file.

Correct. Each block has a hash associated with it - and upon receipt, the block is compared with the hash of that block to ensure it's complete and not corrupted.

BTW people, MAKE SURE you have inbound connections working... (Perhaps this is why GreenLed has issues w/torrents being slow, i.e. he doesn't let people w/the file connect to him to push the data to him).

Or just use the PR-Downloader. It uses the Torrent backbone to download all the game files

"Backbone?"

Does your PR-Downloader use both torrents and FTP servers? That sounds pretty complex...

Ontopic: I'll be getting it via torrents. I'll be seeding loooooong before I even get the chance to play, though. I'm fine with that.

Gotta love Torrents.

Downloading away at 200-300k/sec. =) I appear to be one of the initial finders (1 seed, 5 peers).

I'll be seeding this (along with the other seeders) all weekend. Enjoy all!

No. Just the torrent protocol. Very simple. Just run the "PR-Downloader" and wait as the games files are installed in the right places.

Easy peasy lemon squeezey

Feels good, doesn't it Juniper!
Or should I say.. Peer #2. (On my list anyway. Mr. Shaw Cable.)

Agreed to keep the links off until devs post them?

Hehe, Yep. I see xxx.static.theplanet.com is the seed, realitymod.com is peering, someone on aliant (eastern Canada), someone *.se, one at iphouse.net, and a new one just joined at bresnan.net

I'm the cg.shawcable.net connection in the swarm.

Love it!

Yeah, wont post links... no problem.

LOL, I don't have any issues with Torrents my friend. I like them. I'm just pointing out that it's still faster to go with my mirror. over 1.0 megs per second is hard to beat with torrents unless you have a large amount of users online. Just for the record, I usually overload my upload speed when I'm done downloading a file on uTorrent

so people get a good helping hand after I have the file

I'd love it if you could send me a better internet connection here on PEI - maybe a little more oil revenue too huh?

But Aliant seems to be chugging away alright tonight. So I should hopefully be on in 2 hours or so!
