You must have downloaded the Mac version if there is no wait. hehe

Aw shoot. I had the Mirror going pretty well for like 5 minutes and now it's super slow.

I do think it's absolutley laughable that the game went live and had ONE download server. That is about the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

That just shows though, Markus is a talented and smart coder, but he clearly lacks common sense.

I just downloaded the game on the mirror in 6 minutes. Maybe instead of insulting the person who created the game, you should go and download it off of there.

Not everything in life is perfect and not everything is instant.

I'm sure no one expected that. I'm sure we at least expected to be able to actually download the game an hour and a half after it was released. Instead, I've been stuck on 38% for the last hour. I wouldn't mind if the download is slow. But right now there is no activity going on. It all boils down to poor planning.

If only. The Mac version is impossible to to get downloading, as well. I was hoping they would be on a separate server.

JZ Temple · 06-18-2008, 04:53 PM

I'm DLing at 40KB/sec off the mirror, going to be a while. Oh well, at least I can read the online manual.

06-18-2008, 04:56 PM

Wow, who let the animals out of their cages? Heh.

I just got home and just now started downloading. I have my own webspace with unlimited space and bandwidth so, assuming I can get this thing downloaded, I'd be willing to provide another mirror to alleviate some of the pressure on the OOTP servers.

Scosco · 06-18-2008, 04:58 PM

can someone upload the mac version to a mirror?

mbarry55 · 06-18-2008, 04:59 PM

I'm not even getting 30KB/sec on the mirror. 18% done, 1:40 left according to firefox.

LoL, nah. In any case, the mirror is working slowly, but working. Thanks everyone!

Vezna31 · 06-18-2008, 05:01 PM

I don't know what it takes to set up mirrors, but I have 2 websites and can probably get my friend (who hosts both of them on his server) to set up a mirror through one or both of my sites for future downloads. Anything to help out...

JumpmanCol · 06-18-2008, 05:02 PM

I have a server, and I am willing to host a mirror of the Mac version if someone (ie. someone at OOTPDev.) would post it up there.

Marcus, If you are interested I will volunteer my server as a mirror for the Mac version...shoot me an email at jon at robincon dot com, and I will get you the info to upload it there.

Screw this. I'm gonna go watch a couple recorded episodes of Cheap Seats and then I'll come back and try again later, I guess.

Scosco · 06-18-2008, 05:03 PM

can someone put the mac version on a mirror or torrent or something!?

yes, hopefully one that includes mac version

mbarry55 · 06-18-2008, 05:06 PM

Yeah a torrent would be great...and it'd ease the strain on the server considerably.

CHCfan · 06-18-2008, 05:06 PM

the mirror is working quite well for me, as soon as it went live.

I'm at 83%
