There is no point downloading the BETA unless you were invited into it and recieved your activation code. Otherwise your just wasting download time.

Clamor · 12-06-2001, 15:02

Yhea got the code. Anyway, think I'll down load it at work and burn it tommorow.

**Shiminay** · 12-06-2001, 15:35

Is it just me or does 600 Megs of a download not seem a bit unreasonable?

You'd think they'd burn some CDs and post them out to people!

what is Anarchy Online ?and where can i get it? 600mb aint unreasonable when u have a 512k modem hahaha

*Draco* · 12-06-2001, 15:54

50% through the download.
And your 512K connect will mean bugger all - the ftp servers are swamped.

adnans · 12-06-2001, 17:05

what hobbes said, you do need the activation code which was sent from Funcom to all the beta testers. Otherwise youre wasting your bandwith.

Kharn, they sent out the beta 3 version on cd to all the testers, but since the game fits into the massively multiplayer game genre, i dont think Funcom could afford to send all the players a copy of the new version, or could they?

Horray! I got on the B4 test. Has anyone completed d/l'd the 600mb beta, yet? If so... I'd definitely pay to get it burnt, and posted. In the meantime I'll just continue d/l'ing it. Thx.

They were when it was first announced. I'm sitting on a 10meg line I was peaking at 30K. I tried most of the servers and they were all slow. It's probably fast now that most of the people got it.

irishguy · 15-06-2001, 00:13

and i used a german server. i got to 599mbs and ran out of h/d space how bad is that?
