Game loads much quicker but still requires CD and deletion of Community Satire Screen (Fafnir vs. Owen)

Does that mean after downloading the game we still require the CD to actually play it? I am a bit confused ... Anyone able to shed some light on this line?

Seraph, Mektek has said you will be able to download a patch to their 3.1 install by using their MTX application. Apply the patch and the CD should no longer be necessary.

Forgot to that that off the site.  It's updated now.  If you download 3.1 and patch to the .20 version, you will not need the CD to play.

NVM just changed download to Web "experimental" method whereby courier pigeons deliver each packet of data on a note as a series of 0's and 1's. It goes alot faster now...

You can use any torrent applicatoin like utorrent to download the mw4 and 3.1. You just need the mtx to install the program.

That MTX thing works like I had a 266MHz CPU instead of C2D at 2,66GHz  :-\

Could somebody hand me a link to mechwarrior4mercenaries.all.to.51.03.01.0017.mtx? I'd download this with FF overnight (MTX can't switch off my PC after it's done downloading, while I use a plugin for FF that does it - actually I use FF only for overnight downloads cause my main browser is Opera) and install it through MTX.

EDIT: Oh um and does it include the mech pack they released earlier?

man I just wish they had a patch to bring mw4 mercs up to the same spec!  I have disks to install it, but i don't see any where to just down load the packs/patchs in that MTX!

also people that are having slow downloads in torrents, make sure to remap the port to which ever you have open for your normal BT stuff.

Woah that mtx client is really, REALLY bad, it looks like an early alpha...

Pretty interface but everything else sucks:

- locks up every few seconds (!)
- after restarting it once it says that it has already downloaded 1,7GB (which is certainly not possible with my connection)
- download bar is flashing like crazy at 10%
-  the download speed display jumps up and down all the time (constant connection usage in the task manager)


What the heck..? - Just give me that game without some pre-alpha commercial tool -.-

Not quite sure why all of you are having so many problems with MTX. With download it does take a while to wind up and go faster but such is the nature of torrents. There may be some problems with the initial distribution. I downloaded and installed the latest no-cd patch using MTX and I did notice it was slower to respond then on previous usages. The Mektek servers may be getting slammed by all of the interest in this FREE download.
