I just started D/L last night now on 60% so guess it's working. Might be worth restarting it, maybe d/l file got corrupted.

I think best option if you are having problems is finding one of the numerus torrents out there and start downloading from it, or the less good option, wait for GOA to put the download on sites like fileplanet.

I'm seeding it from work on the quick academic network, uploaded about 25 GB so far. It's still running and I'll be seeding till the pool is empty.

Thank god for that torrent. The official downloader kept crashing with a C++ Runtime error for me after about half an hour. I could never get my download past about 9%. At that point, whenever I re-opened the downloader it would crash before it even finished checking the files.

you could try kicking out some of your slower peers and hoping you get some fast ones to replace them. can you still do that btw? iirc Azureus could do it?

ooo very nice speeds on that torrent

Btw anyone in the closed beta does not have to download a new client, the old one just gets patched as soon as the patcher comes online

Up speed 30 kb/s, Down speed 30 kb/s.....2 days to download using BitTorrent 6.1 :twak:

Should I drop it and get uTorrent or would It really be faster? Normally I d/l big files like this a lot faster.
