I got DSL 

Yay, I now got 'decent' internet access so I can play this more than just one day a week. Unfortunately, Verizon's DSL plan in my area isnt that fast. Yeah, so while I'm downloading CoH from the official site, I realized this is going to suck. As of now, its 54M out of 2.4G with an estimated time of 14:08:00 left while downloading it at 50kbs. Oh, this sucks right now.

RE: I got DSL 

Okay, I've got a friend that says I don't have patience. I however utilize a powerset playstyle that is nothing but patience. It kinda depends on my day, and this one sucks. 440M out of 2.4G, and if I keep with 34kbs it'll take 16:30:00, wait... aw hell.



Big Chill is a conscranker: he conrols a mob so they do nothing, scraps a target till they can't stand, and tanks what's left till the job's done.

Dive in, have fun, and think about it later.

RE: I got DSL 

I should have seen this earlier... restarting the updater usually makes it go faster... for future reference...

RE: I got DSL 

Okay, NOW you tell me... no, i did that a few times. The best I get here is between 50-70kbs, better and more 'reliable' than dial-up anyway. Anyhoo, it finished around 1:00 saturday (finally) and stayed up till 3:00 am playing it, damn I'm tired today...

Anyway Robot, Champion Server's my main (usually), that's where Big's at. Feel free to holler at me (anyone really) anytime, soloing with my setup is certainly safe, just so damn slow...

RE: I got DSL 

Not sure if someone already mentioned this, but there's a Gameamp.com channel where some of us hang out on. Sometimes it's little more than another channel to say 'hi' on, but sometimes it's fun and the Staff gets on there to so you can badger them about submissions not being processed.
