343conspiracy43345	Posted - 2007.09.26 04:06:00 - [31] My e-peen claims a download speed of 8mb/s and an upload speed of 2mb/s.
Dan Grobag Caldari Oyster Colors	Posted - 2007.09.26 07:01:00 - [32] Edited by: Dan Grobag on 26/09/2007 07:03:18 I can do 320kb/sec at most, I'm not complaining there is far worse.
SeismicForce Clear Horizon Industries	Posted - 2007.09.26 07:34:00 - [33] The old textures will get deleted though, so the game folder shouldn't get that much bigger. Originally by: Allisie In a recent interview, a dev mentioned that ships and skills cause lag and will be removed in EVE 2.
Grez Minmatar Sybrite Inc.	Posted - 2007.09.26 08:52:00 - [34] You shouldn't be playing MMO's if you're not prepared for the patch downloads, to be quite frank. The 'classic' client, will probably have a small update (under 100mb?). The new DX9 client will probably be upwards of 1.5GB, purely because of the textures, and no amount of wizardry is going to get that below 500mb. ---
Angry Lo	Posted - 2007.09.26 10:40:00 - [35] hmm, 2c per MB -> $40. Oops. Well I would _definitly_ prefer DVD version.
Lord Matrix Department of War	Posted - 2007.09.26 10:52:00 - [36] CCP will introduce a new patching system with Revelations III to support more frequent patching. It will probably support BitTorrent protocol and have a resume function. Also, there will be no "classic" client, only the new DX9 one. ------------------------------------------------------------------ What good have you done for the EVE community today?
Merfio	Posted - 2007.09.26 10:55:00 - [37] WTF!? Can someone confim this? No classic client?
Kagura Nikon Minmatar MASS HOMICIDE Interstellar Alcohol Conglomerate	Posted - 2007.09.26 10:59:00 - [38] Originally by: Arana Tellen Originally by: Nadun'Hagar Just wondering since Rev III will pretty much double the size of the eve folder on my HD, if you will be releasing it in increments over a few days? Or do we get to download 2gb in one patch! what fun! Ummm don't use 56k? Assuming they limit it at 1 meg/sec thats 2000 seconds, or 34 minutes. That's half downtime. 1 MB s would be a 8 MB connection workign at 100%. Very few peopel outside US and europe can have such connections. And even on those places they are not exaclty ultra cheap. Most people will have around 1 Mbit connection or less. I for example pay 11% of my paycheck to get a 600 Kbit connection. If brute force doesn't solve your problem... you are not using enough
Dred'Pirate Jesus Amarr Ministry of War	Posted - 2007.09.26 11:04:00 - [39] Edited by: Dred''Pirate Jesus on 26/09/2007 11:05:30 I seem to remember from somewhere on the site that CCP was going to be releasing a budget DVD for about $2.99ish to major retailers in a slipcase that will have RevIII and the new client on it.. Dunno if thats still in the works though.. Originally by: David Hackworth ò If you find yourself in a fair fight, you didn't plan your mission properly.
Panthothen principle of motion Interstellar Alcohol Conglomerate	Posted - 2007.09.26 11:31:00 - [40] My DSL 2+ morphed into 24mbps today... so i can now download stuff faster than my HD kan keep up with (2.4 Megabytes per second) Torrent keeps throttling down all the time cos HD *****s under pressure from the randow writing :P

It will probably support BitTorrent protocol and have a resume function. Also, there will be no "classic" client, only the new DX9 one. Really? I was pretty sure they said we would have the option to pick either one. Or maybe that was just DX9 Vs DX10 build. But yeah, I would like to see BitToorent used as another means of getting the patch, because as far as I know and have read its gonna be big. Or at least let us down load it in increments over a few days.
Reiisha Eve University Ivy League	Posted - 2007.09.26 17:11:00 - [43] Originally by: Amantus Ah great. I'm on a crappy wireless connection and the maximum download speed for me will be about 250kb/s. Add in the likelihood of the my connection just dropping randomly and it's a recipe for a bag o' laffs. It'll be worth it though, for sure. The patch will most likely get a torrent release aswell, as has been mentioned, which means that you can 'resume' the download if your connection drops. EVE History Wiki

Implying that 600Kbit is slow? Hardly, 56k dial up is slow. I played EVE for over a year on 56k without any problems. (except patches) I finally was able to get wireless EVDO service, which is around 1.5Mb. It's like a dream come true after being on dial up for 10 years...damn US and their competition is bad laws. But I hope they set it up a few days in advance so we can get it downloaded before hand, would be very nice. ---------- I gave up on sigs. As all the beatings from the abusive mods are starting to hurt and leave nasty bruises.

You really proofs to have very bad understanding of how things really are. I worked in an MMO development in past, and the bandwidth that ANY company reserve for each costumer online is FAR FAR lower than that, usually around 80-100 kb/s. Also While playing eve i have ZERO LAG influence if i am doign nothing else or downloading a lot of stuff and using 90% of my Bandwidth with the downloads. So no go study a little bit of how things are done before speaking so much crap. If brute force doesn't solve your problem... you are not using enough
