Title: Re: Fileplanet Open Beta Keys Now Open to Everyone Post by: Mrbloodworth on May 05, 2008, 11:06:59 AM Do you not have one? Nope, been watching a friend play all weekend. Title: Re: Fileplanet Open Beta Keys Now Open to Everyone Post by: Signe on May 05, 2008, 11:09:15 AM If I give you a key, can you download the client?
Title: Re: Fileplanet Open Beta Keys Now Open to Everyone Post by: Mrbloodworth on May 05, 2008, 11:12:07 AM If I give you a key, can you download the client? yes, yes i can. But isn't the key attached to like an account or something? Or do i make that, then add the key? As long as thats all good, i would really appreciate the key. I get to the "submit and get your key" button, and it times out. :sad: Title: Re: Fileplanet Open Beta Keys Now Open to Everyone Post by: Signe on May 05, 2008, 11:15:35 AM Try it and see. Everyone is complaining about time outs. I guess they're being hammered.

Title: Re: Fileplanet Open Beta Keys Now Open to Everyone Post by: fuser on May 05, 2008, 11:59:33 AM "Game Key Processing
Your key request cannot be completed at this time. It has been placed on hold in an effort to minimize key farming. It will be released automatically when we have reviewed your request." It went to a captcha and processed..... :uhrr: Title: Re: Fileplanet Open Beta Keys Now Open to Everyone Post by: HaemishM on May 05, 2008, 12:08:28 PM You have to keep at it. I managed to get a key after 5 or 6 tries. Thanks to the generous nature of friends, I now have a computer/video card combo that MAY be able to play this acceptably.
Title: Re: Fileplanet Open Beta Keys Now Open to Everyone Post by: tmp on May 05, 2008, 12:09:38 PM Bah, thought would give it a try but it's bouncing between timeouts, "please refresh your data" and "page not found", too.
edit: progressed to a captcha that keeps saying "invalid code" now :drill: Title: Re: Fileplanet Open Beta Keys Now Open to Everyone Post by: Mrbloodworth on May 05, 2008, 12:11:03 PM You have to keep at it.

I am having issues getting the key. Title: Re: Fileplanet Open Beta Keys Now Open to Everyone Post by: tmp on May 05, 2008, 12:41:42 PM I've managed to see actual captcha code rather than "invalid" message, then it went through and told me alas the signups for PotBS beta are closed, and would i like
Guess i should upgrade my gfx card or something. Title: Re: Fileplanet Open Beta Keys Now Open to Everyone Post by: Viin on May 05, 2008, 12:43:33 PM I finally got one. Now, to find a bittorrent for their 12gb client. Maybe I'll be able to play next weekend.
Title: Re: Fileplanet Open Beta Keys Now Open to Everyone Post by: shiznitz on May 05, 2008, 12:48:35 PM Everyone is reporting that the site is getting hammered as if that is surprising. Maybe I am just becoming one of those old curmudgeons.

Maybe I am just becoming one of those old curmudgeons. What just now? I've always considered you one of those old curmudgeons! Title: Re: Fileplanet Open Beta Keys Now Open to Everyone Post by: Chenghiz on May 05, 2008, 01:19:20 PM I finally got one. Now, to find a bittorrent for their 12gb client. Maybe I'll be able to play next weekend. There's a relatively active torrent on piratebay. Honestly, I'm pretty astonished that they still try and distribute 12 GB files by http. Title: Re: Fileplanet Open Beta Keys Now Open to Everyone Post by: Viin on May 05, 2008, 01:57:00 PM Heh, what's the other option? Send everyone a
Title: Re: Fileplanet Open Beta Keys Now Open to Everyone Post by: JoeTF on May 05, 2008, 02:01:05 PM and what should they use - usenet?!
Title: Re: Fileplanet Open Beta Keys Now Open to Everyone Post by: Chenghiz on May 05, 2008, 08:59:49 PM Torrent? I'm confused, I thought people sort of implicitly understood that torrents made sense for the distribution of large files.
Title: Re: Fileplanet Open Beta Keys Now Open to Everyone Post by: Viin on May 06, 2008, 06:46:32 AM I'm trying that pirate bay torrent for the client and my avg download rate is 14kB/s. Not exactly stellar.. but then I'm on Comcast. With a 2 week ETA, I may just pony up for the subscription on Fileplanet.
Title: Re: Fileplanet Open Beta Keys Now Open to Everyone Post by: Signe on May 06, 2008, 06:58:21 AM If you have Comcast, silly Corey, you get Fileplanet/Founder's Club free and access to their fast servers.
You made me repeat myself! Dammit! http://gameinvasion.comcast.net/gameinvasion/setup/ Title: Re: Fileplanet Open Beta Keys Now Open to Everyone Post by: Viin on May 06, 2008, 07:04:54 AM Heh, I saw that, thanks. I actually have an old account that's 4MB, you have to upgrade to the 6MB one ($65/month!) to get the free FilePlanet access.
Title: Re: Fileplanet Open Beta Keys Now Open to Everyone Post by: Signe on May 06, 2008, 07:13:13 AM Oh sure. Tell me know. After I've repeated myself! I AM NOT HERE FOR YOUR SICK AMUSEMENT!
Title: Re: Fileplanet Open Beta Keys Now Open to Everyone Post by: Viin on May 06, 2008, 07:25:33 AM Oh sure. Tell me know. After I've repeated myself! I AM NOT HERE FOR YOUR SICK AMUSEMENT! Umm... yes you are. Title: Re: Fileplanet Open Beta Keys Now Open to Everyone Post by: Vanifae on May 06, 2008, 07:30:53 AM I must be retarded I don;t see where I can download this or get a key from that link, it just says they closed it.
Title: Re: Fileplanet Open Beta Keys Now Open to Everyone Post by: Viin on May 06, 2008, 07:31:49 AM I must be retarded I don;t see where I can download this or get a key from that link, it just says they closed it. Bummer, looks like you missed it. Title: Re: Fileplanet Open Beta Keys Now Open to Everyone Post by: Mrbloodworth on May 06, 2008, 07:39:17 AM yeah, it seems to be done. The page changed and the button is gone.
Title: Re: Fileplanet Open Beta Keys Now Open to Everyone Post by: Viin on May 06, 2008, 11:34:07 AM Well, after getting an average of 14kB/s down on the torrent for the last 18hrs, I'm going to have to switch to fileplanet. The beta will be over before I download this bastard.
Title: Re: Fileplanet Open Beta Keys Now Open to Everyone Post by: Signe on May 06, 2008, 11:43:15 AM You probably won't get as many keyloggers as you will with Piratebay, too. IMO. :oh_i_see:
Title: Re: Fileplanet Open Beta Keys Now Open to Everyone Post by: Viin on May 07, 2008, 07:36:56 AM I've given up trying to download this beast, so if anyone wants my Open Beta key and can download 12gig before launch, let me know. :)
Edit: Sold! To the, um, alien thingy and his grandma.

Title: Re: Fileplanet Open Beta Keys Now Open to Everyone Post by: JoeTF on May 08, 2008, 12:46:38 AM Torrent? I'm confused, I thought people sort of implicitly understood that torrents made sense for the distribution of large files. Isn't that too server intensive? Title: Re: Fileplanet Open Beta Keys Now Open to Everyone Post by: Chenghiz on May 09, 2008, 03:21:59 AM The whole point of torrents is distributing the load over every computer that has any part of the file, lightening the load in the original server.
