Blues linky

Blue's FTP is getting hammered and I can't even get on :( Some folks have it and I wanna play :(

Edit: This game is a freakin blast. Tribes+Operation Flashpoint+WWII setting=winnaR!

The only thing I can think of that may be able to contend will be UT2003 and U2. I would say Raven Shield but it's market is pretty small.

136MB, I think.

I'll host a server if I can. It may take me all night just to upload it to my web space. :)

I'll see if I can FXP it.

I can't seem to log back into their servers.

There are too many users. I have my copy, but my upload is only 30KB/sec. I'd say just go to bed and try again tomorrow. :p

Edit: Oh, and I installed it, but it won't run. It just quites after I start it. :confused:

53 minute wait + download time..

file is 130 mb, thats 133120 kilobytes, so if i download at 75kb/sec, should take ~30 minutes to download. so 53 minute wait +30 minute download means 1 hour 20 minutes before i have it.

the only wya i would be able to send is over my own connection through FTP. i am capped at 48kb/sec, so it would take you ~45 minutes to download from me. that would make a total wait time of 2 hours and 5 minutes if you got through me. if you just jumped in line at fileplanet you would get it in ~1 hours 20 minutes, like me. up to you, i will send if you want, but it will be a while.
