So I'm confused, when we can DL the client will we be able to do anything with it or will it just mean we actually have it?
You won't be able to play, but considering the thing is a whopping 8gb, you'll be able to log in straight away if you get into beta :) Another added bonus is that you'll probably be able to just patch this client up to the release version on Feb 25th.

We dont know for sure until people actually get there hands on the client. The quicker it is spread the quicker people can start working on getting in it to view the world. Like the did for WOW before open beta. It may or may not be possible

There's also the possiblity of someone figuring how to unlock the console, thus allowing you into a local, non-online, unpopulated game world so you can look around etc.

Exactly. Thats what we did with the wow closed beta. The good people at gotwow.com showed us how and it was fairly simple. We just pulled up the console typed our ip and set the name and pass. It was cool and would be way cooler for this game

Well lets hope it's possible, I just have that gut feeling that it may be a little harder than that for DF :-/

Ya, I'm the one being the attention whore....
I have a server! Give me beta! give me beta! i have a server, ill release. give me beta!
Uh... no dumbass. You asked for help, I offered. I also linked your thread to the other guy in case he was on when I wasn't so either of us could help. I noticed you being shady so I asked another question after which you started being whiny.

The only reason I asked the question is because I know from my years of working with servers and torrents that the entire process only takes about 30 minutes to a few hours after a file has been uploaded to a webserver.

Hey guys. 2:37 AM here. The client is real and I have it uploaded on a hi speed FTP like a few hours ago. Problem is, Faithkiller hasn't been online yet for me to talk with him. Or I missed him. I don't know what time time zone he's in, but until I've talked to him, I won't release the torrent.

What I have is; the client, rarred. Can't do anything with it myself, launching it says I don't have a proper login. It's not the setup files, it's just the filled data folder that you can copy over the one you got by installing the patcher. I reckon this can be used by advanced users to get some mroe info and hopefully do what was done with the WoW alpha.

What I also have, is that it's uploaded, in parts, to an undisclosed location at my university. Like I said this will allow for high speed downloads. HOWEVER, I do not wish to risk my university's integrity. Hence, this is my plan.

I will distirbute the link to a dozen or so people with hi-speed upload capacity, WILLING TO SEED the coming torrent. There's no point in me trying to seed it to a hundred thousand people alone with my 60 kb/s upload, and we want this torrent to be in a healthy state before the beginning of the week. After these people have downloaded the client, I'll delete the file from the location, put the torrent up, they'll connect to it, it'll most likely be up on the main page here, and we've finally blown the lid off this thing, client wise.

So a little more patience, I'm afraid. I think caution is required in this case, I'm just trying to get this thing as widespread as possible before shit might hit the fan.

P.S. if you're willing to seed and have a decent upload contact me at janjaappeter [at[ hotmail [dot] com and we'll arrange contact details, thanks.
