Did something just kill the server?

Nope, I'm DLing at a meager (but steady) 100kb/s.

Strafer · Post by **Strafer** » 27 Oct 2006, 15:27

800kb/s (h)

Opening Skyline_Man's link just gives me a ''No such directory'' in FireFox and opening it in IE makes it crash.

And all the others are dead, lol.

Edit: Except for Ragotech's link.. But don't see a NFS folder there.

i'm downloading it fine 80-100k , while my friend can hardly get the file to download , i think it's because we're the first to download the demo

Their server is probably getting zerg'd right about now.

Ragotech · Post by **Ragotech** » 27 Oct 2006, 15:34

the frist one to download it plz post if it is the same as the PS2 or not.

spike_minoda · Post by **spike_minoda** » 27 Oct 2006, 15:35

Hey, hey, hey! It was still :16 when I did the edit!

Anyway, my connection's pretty firetrucked (the amazing speeds during the day in Athens' suburbs) so I'm downloading with 40KB/s average. That should make it for a... 5 hour wait. Okay. I'm totally firetrucked.

P.S. We should make "firetruck" NFSUnlimited's motto word after all the times it's been mentioned lately in this thread.

EDIT: This goes to the admins. Why not make the Demo mirror page part of NFSUnlimited's wiki, so that anyone can add any mirrors they find easily to help others?

yah, finally, PC demo is out, now we can all stop nagging when its coming out. No more "WHEN IS THE PC DEMO COMING OUT?'

I'm still waiting for the PS2 game anyway. Maybe another piece of info to share to PC users is that when you go to google and serach for 'Need for Speed Carbon' Torrent you can download the full version of NFSC. downside is that +- 5GB is going to take long.

[kool aid mode]Oh yeeeeeeeah![kool aid mode off]

The wait has ended for me!

PSZeTa · Post by **PSZeTa** » 27 Oct 2006, 15:49

Another downside of the full version is that it's fake.

Same thing with the link above. You'll have to download some ''rather'' suspicious crap first before you can download the demo. FFS, isn't it obvious? All you fools are walking into it.

Servers tend to respond with 400, 404 and 501's when traffic gets heavy. Those who went in first are the lucky ones. The rest that are getting those errors should try again later or wait for a mirror or two to be posted.

I really believe that we should set up a torrent, judging by the popularity of the demo. EA should have already thought of that.

exonn · Post by **exonn** » 27 Oct 2006, 16:12

if someone allready have the demo, please make a torrent and seed.....

NFS_ZawyeR · Post by **NFS_ZawyeR** » 27 Oct 2006, 16:21
