is there any place where I can download PWI without using torrents or the pando media booster? like a place where I can use my own download manager that also isn't a torrent

Thx in advance

    yes, it would be really nice to have a direct download link like there was before.

    Pushing the pando media booster on us isn't right. You've got loads of people out there with internet bandwidth caps that you are ****ing over because they don't know that you've just put a bit-torrent client on their system and they are sharing files.

    I'd like to thank you for personally **** me out of 50GB of bandwidth last month before I caught the stupid thing. Way to go PWE.

    It was better before when we had the OPTION to direct DL or bit-torrent it. Now you're forcing torrent.

    Pando can be uninstalled through the Windows Control Panel after you install and update the game.

    You may have to temporarily disable your antivirus and firewall long enough to download, install, update, and login to the game.

    You also need to have at least 10-14GB of hard drive space available so Windows has room to operate itself (about 1-2GB) and the rest for the game to have space to download to, then install in.
    Do you need help learning about patching the game, installing it, changing antivirus/firewall settings, changing network settings, learn how to use a computer, keeping your PC maintained and more?

    The point is that it isn't nice to push the bit-torrent method on us. My ISP will kill my connection if they catch me bit-torrenting, and I may lose my service completely. Most people don't realize that the Pando media booster is going to do the seeding after it finishes downloading the client.

    We had the option before, we want it back. I don't think it is unreasonable to ask for a direct download link to DL the full installer.

    Direct Download needs to actually be Direct Download. It's not. Rename it and give us Direct Download (actual) back.

    Pando media booster is just another torrent method. IT IS NOT Direct Download.

    get it right

    Get rid of the Pando Media Booster. I and about 100 other players are no longer playing due to the Pando Fiasco being forced on us. GIVE US BACK A DIRECT DOWNLOAD. The new PWI Staff really sucks bad.
