That's fairly well up there in world standards. You'd probably have to move to Korea or Japan to have a good chance of beating it.

10Mbit isnt that super fast. Well within the range of normal cable, and rather slow for VZ fiber.

Like ilkhan said 10 is not that fast really. In my town I can get either 30Mbit or a 50Mbit if I want to. That is in a town of about 33K people, including the suburbs. And as far as I know the fastest sold speed in Sweden is 100Mbit.


Anyway... to try and be somewhat on topic. When you have Crysis installed with the mod, does that mean the Crysis folder will be about 2 gig's bigger? Or will the mod replace various files so it will only be a bit bigger?

Yes. The MWLL installation does not affect Crysis in any way. You'll still be able to run Crysis just as before.

so, not all that good to begin with *grins*
and who cares about crysis with this mod anyway? O.o
this is up there with mektek, only better and certainly nicer looking ^^


i have to make to with 2.5 to 3.5MBit DSL <.< . .
so 2 Gigs is pretty hefty . . but heck, so worth it!
i just bought an 800€ LapTop to run this Mod with, and the Laptop is quiet enough to let it download for the whole night ^^

i'll try and find some mirror sites for it . . maybe if i pay my buddies some hundret bucks each, they will host the complete thing including HTTP/FTP, eMule and torrent support . .


also: is hueg liek x-bawks!

*Nods as his face show signs of heavy thinking*

Which means I would have to clear out some... what... 6 gig's in total? Don't remember how big the install for Crysis was.

2 GB should need less than 2 hours at 2 / 2.5 MBit.
I think the developers said that there will be fast mirrors so there's no need to pay your friends.
And if another mirror is really needed just let me know. ;)

I just got COD:W@W from Steam which was a 4Gb download and it took around an hour.

2Gb won't be much and if it is a torrent a few of us that a dedicated to seeing the game succeed can help by keeping the file seeded for an extended period.  I think I even have a spare PC that is up to the task.

OC's ain't the problem . . the line is the problem . . if i had 10MBit up, i would make it a fixed source . .

I'm still amused... why do you think we wouldn't compress it to save download size/bandwidth?

I think there might be a misunderstanding, Toe.  The 2GB number was bandied about but I am not sure it was specified as the installed size or the download size.

It has been mentioned it would be the installed size at the beginning somewhere. So yeah, we should expect a much smaller download size.
