I was curious about this. How is the game?

I haven't played the new instance of it, but the original was really fun. I'm going to install it tonight.

Isn't this basically daemons come to london and your an order of templars trying to hold them back?

Installing, the original was epic.

More or less, basically. It had really fun co-op multiplayer. Though it was first person shootery, it had a strong Diablo 2 feel to it. In the just near future, Hell opens on earth, and London is sort of a warzone between humans and demons. You run around closing gates and fighting monsters and stuff.

Gonna try it, i love my connection, 24 minutes

The actual initial download is just a downloader which takes a LOT longer, three hours so far.

Im talking about that downloader mate

avarage down speed atm: 4.200 kb/sec

600kb here, though this downloader is lagging my pc to hell.

Wow, that's pretty amazing. I normally get about 2 mb/s.

You are joking right? I have the worst internet package you can actually buy in the UK and I still get 600kb.

EDIT: Mb is larger than kb isn't it...

I've gotten up to 15mb/sec...

Oh man, this game is pure fried gold! Thanks for this link dude, I'll be D/Ling as soon as I've got home

1 mb == 1000 kb (or 1024, depending on what time of the day you ask)


I think I've peaked at about 4 mb, but that's just burst, not sustained. Depending on what I'm connecting to, I typically get between 1 and 2 mb. It's pretty good, considering the deplorable state of ISPs over here in the States.
