I want to comment on the first article I saw: Downloading Games Now if you really want to become a game journalist what you really need to do is do RESEARCH. Let me copy past what someone else said, but said it better then I probebly will...... Originally posted by Torik: As far as the use of FilePlanet goes that's really them just offloading the cost of bandwith and download servers to a company that specialized in that kind of activity. When the beta starts the servers are flooded with people trying to download the client. That kind of spike will bring down most servers that are not designed for that kind of activity. SInce it is a temporary spike, there is no value in investing in the architecture to manage it so the next best move is to outsorce it to someone whose business it is to deal with these issues. Even though it's about a beta, it does apply's to your topic aswell. So do you really want gamecompany's to spend even more money to maintain such servers for either beta/demo's/trials? Also if you really into games you can always sign up on one of the gaming websites that will offer you faster downloads. If you yourself choose to get a mirror download then it is your choice and simply understand and be thankfull to get something for free even though it might take some time longer. Have you even considered or even remember how much longer it took in the past to get decent download speed for games that where offered thru official website's? ------------------------------------------------------------ |
