Maybe if a lurker sees this, they'd be kind of enough to bestow a PM your way.

Downloaded, installed, and ready to go. Though I need to study a little, so I might not be on for another hour or so. How will I be able to join the GAF region?

 

[Rentahamster]

Reddit will probably have codes to give away, too, FYI

You installed all 12gb's already? or just the origin-part? You need to download a much larger file from within the client, too


Also I'd say when we create the region, everyone just picks one first til we know who's around, and then a second one once everyone's gotten their first? sounds good?

 

[Rentahamster]

I wish the client showed download speed...

According to my router, I'm going at a little less than 2MB per sec.

Sounds good.

I've added everyone from the list down to MetalMurphy.

saunderez isn't found as a user name though.

And thanks meltingparappa for the code!

 

[georgc]

I'm at 20% -twiddles thumbs- I wish the client showed download speed...

mine does there is a little arrow next to the % sign i'm at 64%

 

[Definity]

Downloading the beta now. Seems that Maxis is really trying hard to figure out how much pain the servers can take with all these betas before next Tuesday.

Still not sure what type of city I want to play tonight.

 

[Ballistik]

I'm ready! client finished!

 

[Rentahamster]

The only thing that worries me are the reports that you have to add the people who are eligible to join your region before you create it. I hope it actually doesn't work that way, otherwise it'll be a little hard, logistically.

 

[Smiley90]

My download is done, I'll be good to go to create the region and invite everyone!


EDIT: I really hope invites go cross-server though? The code I got is Europe...

 

[Legato.Reborn-]

Quick question about preorder; Do I have access to the beta or is that email invite only?

 

[TheQueen'sOwn]

My download is done, I'll be good to go to create the region and invite everyone!

Damn, nice. I'm only at 20% now. It's really chugging.

 

[Fixed1979]

It does, click on % complete at the bottom of Origin. It creates a new window showing the download speed. I'm just over 2MB...

Only 268.24MB download...

 

[Ballistik]

Mine says "Europe West 3" and I'm in California...

As long as we're all on the same server, it should be good.

 

[Smiley90]

Exactly the same here, I'm in BC, Canada :lol

 

[TheQueen'sOwn]

There's only a speed for the initial download.
There's a much bigger d/l after that.

 

[Rentahamster]

The only server I see is Europe West 3, lol

[Rentahamster]

I wonder if we'll be able to build a Great Work...

 

[TheQueen'sOwn]

I wonder if we'll be able to build a Great Work...

Which one would you want to build?

EDIT: Also, your download just finished didn't it? Damn you!

 

[Smiley90]

I wonder if we'll be able to build a Great Work...

It's 5.02!

EDIT: servers currently down lolwut.

 

[FearMyWrench]

I think Arcology is the easiest one to build. No big requirements besides resources.

 

[Rentahamster]

"Our service is currently down please check back again soon"

 

[Ballistik]

Cjdamon042, you should make some Sim City themed avatars in the OP!

Well, I'll still join a 3 city region with two others if anyone wants to.
