Filesizes: What are you willing to download?

[Zylinderkatze]

Hi people and other beings...

We are currently programming a game
(Arcade-Shooter: vertical scrolling
fighter-simulation. kinda like
Apogee(tm)'s "Raptor"... only 3D and
with RPG-aspects)
It will take at least 2 - 3 years
until it's fully done.

The question is- seeing yourself in
2 - 3 years with whatever bandwidth
you'll have by then- How big would
the maximum filesize be that you'd
be willing to download?

[Crendowing]

How many of you cocksuckers on on at least DSL?????

[læmænt]

I have cable, but I'm not a cocksucker. Figure that one out =)

[Xenoman]

I have cable, but I'm not a cocksucker.

Damn straight. r0fl

[deathz0r]

where's the 1.5gb option?

[Xenoman]

Yeah, the most important choice of all.

[DooMBoy]

Dammit, man, how I hate 56ks. I never download anything over 30 megs myself.

[LorD BaZTArD]

56K modems are the shiznit. ;)
No actually they suck big time
Largest I've ever downloaded was 90MB.
In 3 Bit chunks.
Eg: 3x30=90
Took 3 Nights per bit.
9Days.

I WILL NOT be doing that again :(
Damned 56K.

If only DSL or cable was cheaper.
Then I wouldn't care how big the file was
Download everything in sight

But, alas. I can't. that sucks :(

[Xenoman]

You just love to press that ENTER button do you?

[Crendowing]

I said AT LEAST DSL, but I'll rephrase it.



How many of you cocksuckers are on fast connections??????

I will kill all that are!!!!!! Until I get it, of course.

[Xenoman]

You'll have to kill me, that's for sure. (duh)

[MACVILWHORE]

/me is on fast assHAT0rz cable

[Xenoman]

Good for you. Broadband is kinda necessary if you want to download shit worth hundreds of mb.

[Zaldron]

Who loves ya, DSL?

[Xenoman]

I love my chello connetion (512kb), but I could sure use a T3 cable. ;)

[Naked Snake]

Bah! Fear my insanity! I download things above 100mb ON A 56K MODEM!!!!

[Xenoman]

That's strong of you. :)

[pilottobombadier]

I could too, but I have no patience for the servers, ESPECIALLY FaggotPlanet...I mean File Planet.

[LorD BaZTArD]

So true.

File Planet is getting terrible. At the moment they seem to be setting up a system that's totally as useless as possible unless you pay upto some crazy amount of money.
Two words.

FUCK YOU GAMESPY.

Actually.....No, thats three.
Close enough...........:)

[Xenoman]

Even Fuckplanet, I also mean FILEPLANET, can be slow for me.

I always use 3d downloads....

[Zaldron]

Apparently the private servers on Fileplanet are fucking incredible...not like I'm gonna pay for free downloads, mind you.

[Xenoman]

I wanted to download Counter strike 1.3 yesterday, and I was kept in a line....I waited for atleast two hours.

[Espi]

I wanted to download Counter strike 1.3 yesterday, and I was kept in a line....I waited for atleast two hours.

Downloadin' that myself too right now, with 56k... only 10% done so far.

[Xenoman]

It works so god damn slow for us scandinavians. =(
