    It took me three full days to completely download, install and update PWI...

    ...I have the worst internet connection evar >_>

    It's quite normal for a game like this to take long, since it's graphically very expensive, and also takes alot of space on your computer.

    Every individual music instrument is like a person.
    Every individual music instrument has a different personality
    Every individual music instrument has a different voice.
    Every individual music instrument has a different face.
    Every individual music instrument has a different dialect.
    Every individual music instrument uses different words.
    And the type of music is the language it speaks.
    There is no 'best' type of music instrument, and if you think there is, then you're racist, because it's just like saying there is a 'best' skin-color or nationality.

    easiest is to order the disc....at $5, a good deal, and makes it so much easier to install the game on our other PCs

    Well I downloaded the one that's broken like thrice I think. Then found out it doesn't work and that it wasn't my comps fault, and that I had to use torrent. All in all about eight days I think.

    Took me somewhere between an hour and two hours. >>" Torrent would have taken like, 10 days, from what I've seen from my other torrent experiences.

    O.O How are you guys even playing PWI? Then again, dial up IS slower than 20KB/sec... but when I had a dial up connection I couldn't even get the launcher to let me on.

    The updates take a while if you dont manual patch because they add to the game every Tuesday. The Tideborn expansion patches have been happening for months. So if your just getting on to PWI you have alot to add. The dl of the game client isnt that long . About the same as other FTP games. Manual patching is the fastest way.
    Important things to remember:

    1) Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.

    2) If at first you don't succeed, failure may be your style.

    3) If your going into an fb and the BladeMaster screams "LEROY JENKINS" as he runs into the cave, leave the party. It's only going to get worse from then on.

    Well, for a game of this size and graphics, it's actually not that bid. On current version, it's only 3GB. And btw, for those downloading it in no-time; At a speed of 20mbps, you should have used 20 minutes. That's on both downloading the game and patches on FULL SPEED! That's just simple maths b:victory
