If you use the second link Paddy provides above, along with DownThemAll! (a Firefox extension) set to 10 chunks, I got a consistent 1.4MB/s. :D Whole thing downloaded in like 16 minutes.

Grab DownThemAll!

Under 'Preferences' (Advanced) there is a 'MultiPart Download' area... set that to 10.

It'll download the file in different 'parts' and assemble them when they're all finished. Make sure to enable Disk Space Pre-Allocation on the same page or it'll murder your comp putting them together.

Yarr the demo is awesome, but this is considered warez, as the demo is not supposed to be released till tomorrow night. This was downloaded from fileplanet and cracked.

I would have done a detailed report on it 15 hours ago but we are so close to release and so much will probably be different (IE: Cut scenes) that I figured might as well just wait.

Really?

I thought it was Monday night it was released, or something.

Well, it's Monday here. So it's only a few hours early. And it's a demo.

...

Paddy - no worries, mate. Glad to be of help. ;)

That made me Laugh really loud man, hehe good stuff. :D

I've played the demo on the 360 so I think I will just wait until its easy and fast to download on the PC. I waited about 5 hours for the 360 demo to download.....

I know.

Which is why I think they've been shafting PC gamers. ;)

...

I renew my call for someone to post a heads-up about the activation of the full game. :)

I guess it is tonight they release it. Ive been up around 18 hours so please forgive me.

Eh, I also renew my call now that the demo is available (kinda) for dx9/dx10 comparison pictures.

Anybody want to host their ConfigINI.IBF file for me? Apparently if you edit that AT ALL the game doesn't start. :roll:
