    503 server not available to handle request. Guess we're all in a rush to wait! ;)

    Error 503 on Beamdog.com, and no email yet. Looks like I'll wave to wait until later :(

    I got the game downloaded while I was cooking some nice veal liver. It took approximately an hour or so.
    The manuals are real nifty!

    I'm actually worried for the 28th since you'll have to download an extra 500Mb then.

    I think you've overdone your veal liver, mate! ;-)

    Wasn't it supposed to be bigger than 1.3GB on PC? I thought somebody said at some point the game would take 3GB? ... Guess I remember wrong.
  • TomeTome Member Posts: 466
    The full size is 1.8GB, the last half a gigabyte will be released on the 28th.

    1.3 is the preload, there are another 500mb to download at release day - after installation its supposed to be around the 3gb.

    I've been downloading for well about an hour and a half, am still only up to 131Mb, no big deal I guess as its just the pre-download, but it perhaps indicates that server capacity on launch day needs to be greater, as demand will be even higher then...
  • lordkimlordkim Member Posts: 1,063
    they should let us who have preordered the game before the 18 sep get the 500 mb also ;)
  • allhailsteveallhailsteve Member Posts: 210
    Good news. I'll be home soon and will download it then.

    Taste your sauce? How provocative.

    Phil is stalling with the e-mails until we get a few more of the server kinks ironed out.

    The download servers are fine, it is the front end that is causing us pain today. We have a couple machines in the cluster which are handling a few too many things at once. We'll iron it out.

    Getting around 10 - 40kb here in Australia. Damned isolation.
  • allhailsteveallhailsteve Member Posts: 210
    Very slow at 200-250kb but getting there!
  • Oxford_GuyOxford_Guy Member Posts: 3,729
    Between 6-12Kb/s here (UK)
  • IkonNavrosIkonNavros Member Posts: 227
    Slowly i have the feeling my computer has some problem with the client, have tried a while ago to get also another game but that shows exactly like baldurs gate enhanced also that "getting download info" - and that since quite some weeks already...

    Ban of Austrian IP's perhaps? :P
  • shawnppickettshawnppickett Member Posts: 25
    Well, my preload has started, I'm averaging ~60Kb/s (I have a slow connection at my house normally, the consequence of living in a rural area). 6 hrs to go...

    My first post was going to ask politely for everyone to let me start my download, but I decided to check the servers again and it's downloading. :P

    I feel really weird to download part of the game early when I'm still going to have to wait until full release to play.
  • Arsene_LupinArsene_Lupin Member Posts: 181
    Using the standalone installer, I got exactly 11.3mb downloaded before it crapped out on me. Now I'm indefinitely "connecting..."

    This, like (quite literally) every other thing that's happened re: BGEE, does -not- bode well.
  • john_boyjohn_boy Member Posts: 18
    Switched on early - stuck at around 66mb and now the installer is dead Jim.
