Odin -> Download time with DSL? (7/2/2004 9:35:52 AM)

Can someone tell me how long it will took with DSL over here in Germany?

When it wouldn´t take too long i will start download right here at work![:D][:D]



von Murrin -> RE: Download time with DSL? (7/2/2004 9:38:38 AM)

Dunno what you get for average speeds, but I used to get approx. 96kb/s on DSL. I have cable now and got it in 23mins at an average of 336kb/s, so figure something like an hour and 20 minutes for you.

Assuming you're going to be using slower, resiential DSL, that is.



Grouchy -> RE: Download time with DSL? (7/2/2004 9:39:00 AM)

Filesize is 466 MB. If you divide those 466 MB by your downloadspeed you know how long it wil ltake.



Svar -> RE: Download time with DSL? (7/2/2004 9:40:27 AM)

I used DSL and downloaded in 51 minutes.



soeren01 -> RE: Download time with DSL? (7/2/2004 9:49:11 AM)

Between 2 and 4 hours, depending on how many other people are switched on your line by your provider.

It took me 3 hours 40 minutes but normaly my DSL is much faster.



2Stepper -> RE: Download time with DSL? (7/2/2004 9:58:51 AM)

2-4hrs is a fair assessment. 6hrs is still reasonable if it's during peak times on the NET. The download is smooth though and the fact that you have DSL running will make it very efficient. Bit of a wait, but WELL worth it.



Dabo -> RE: Download time with DSL? (7/2/2004 10:14:33 AM)

I've got a 2 Mbit DSL and it took 1 hour and half at an average spped of 93 Kb/s (about 1/3 of the max speed)



Oliver Heindorf -> RE: Download time with DSL? (7/2/2004 10:36:50 AM)

I had an average dl speed of 270 KB/second .

I started download about Midnight CET last night. The DL was not as fast as my conn could handle but I dont complain at all !

I took the US - Store because at this time, european dl was not aviable.



captskillet -> RE: Download time with DSL? (7/2/2004 1:37:17 PM)

I'm not sure about DSL..I had a fiber optic link up and with DR's high speed servers it took be about 53 min....avg speed about 150kbs



Tacoma -> RE: Download time with DSL? (7/2/2004 1:46:25 PM)

Cable is on the only way to go! 466MB in 20 minutes. [:D]



MCKClaudi -> RE: Download time with DSL? (7/2/2004 1:58:29 PM)

I have 512/256 dsl. Got it in 2 hours 10 minutes.



Odin -> RE: Download time with DSL? (7/2/2004 2:02:33 PM)

And i had to sit here and wait because of my 1000 years old bank transfer method[:@][:@][:@]



RevRick -> RE: Download time with DSL? (7/2/2004 2:02:44 PM)

I have DSL in the SE US, and it took me 24 minutes. Had an average connection speed of 298. AMAZING!



freeboy -> RE: Download time with DSL? (7/2/2004 3:28:04 PM)

about an hour with dsl



Hard Sarge -> RE: Download time with DSL? (7/2/2004 3:36:17 PM)

Mine was around 42 minutes, with DSL, was getting around 157 KBS

for me, thought it was very quick (I didn't get the news, till after 9 last night, so maybe had a less packed line :))

Radzy -> RE: Download time with DSL? (7/2/2004 4:17:25 PM)

It took 3,5 hours on 390kb/s DSL (All time we had 39kB/s). The transfer was pretty stable.

Yes, that was one of the pleasant surprises with Digital River... There was so much concern about it being able to handle the load... But once it was up and running it was as stable as they come. Even at cable's speeds, there's always fluctuation. I have a T3 at home and while it was as good as 490KB/sec, it never dropped below 420... VERY stable!

Gotta hand it to Matrix. All the caution they took at getting this right paid off! Back to the game... KUDOS a plenty gents! WELL DONE! [8D]



riverbravo -> RE: Download time with DSL? (7/2/2004 5:50:08 PM)

50 minutes .....DSL.



Damien Thorn -> RE: Download time with DSL? (7/2/2004 5:54:28 PM)

It took me about 10 minutes from work. I had a speed of 600k/sec, which is the fastest I've seen. It didn't matter though because I have WinME and I can't play it until they fix the installer bug. [:@]



ltfightr -> RE: Download time with DSL? (7/2/2004 7:53:10 PM)

[:@] 33 hours 55 min

It *still* beats waiting 3 months until your local store happens to finally get of their arse and get one in stock for you. [;)]

Doesn't your local library have broadband and a burner? Hell, go to the university and offer some student a case of beer to use their computer lab. (Over 21, of course)[:)]



Mark VII -> RE: Download time with DSL? (7/2/2004 9:08:46 PM)

My wife used a T1 line at her work, took 47 minutes. Her production assisstant did the math and though it would take 15 hours on a dial up.



Germ29 -> RE: Download time with DSL? (7/2/2004 9:11:20 PM)

im in Hanau and it only took 1hr 5 minutes. I did that when it was first released though before everyone tried downloading at once.



Mr.Frag -> RE: Download time with DSL? (7/2/2004 9:13:49 PM)

A little bit of advice if using a common machine, PLEASE flush the browser's cache afterwards. All your information will be sitting there for the next guy that happens to come along. I'd hate to see people get in that kind of a situation.

The same holds true even on your own machine, after downloading you probably have a 400+ meg file left sitting in your browser's cache directory eating up your hard drive space. Security on the Internet is extremely poor. Always remember that.



John B -> RE: Download time with DSL? (7/2/2004 11:19:24 PM)

Last night it took about 3 1/2 hours on DSL at an average speed of 57.8Kb. A bit slower than I usually average.



TheHellPatrol -> RE: Download time with DSL? (7/3/2004 12:47:26 AM)

West Coast, USA DSL took me 56 minutes, which is slow for me, but that's before anyone knew it was out and all us were circling[;)].



kaleun -> RE: Download time with DSL? (7/3/2004 12:50:51 AM)

1hr +- 5 or 6 min on cable at 1600 hrs (when all the teens in my neighborhood are online)



mattmios -> RE: Download time with DSL? (7/3/2004 2:24:50 AM)

Austria xDSL took me 44 mins to get it.

(.... and 6 hours later still trying to know with Japanese Aircraftname stands for which aircraft *g*)



Hatamoto -> RE: Download time with DSL? (7/3/2004 3:14:20 AM)

Seavus!
Great, some germans out here! Greetings from munich!
DD via DSL took about 1h 23 min today (in the afternoon!), only to discover the bugs in the tutorial... grrr!
The rest of the game looks great, Thanks to all those who participated in producing this game!!!
