3d gamers is probably the best, get a free account or try one of there public servers but it may take longer than there free login servers (the ftp one works but only at 20KB/s), anyway, the other ones have a 20-30 min wait, look around, however when its done, it downloads at around 900KB/s here

I'd recommend uTorrent over the basic BT client. It's tiny (less than 200 kB), needs no install, and has pretty much all the best BT client features built-in.

Relatively speaking, of course. It still blows chunks. Maybe less so than file planet, but not by a very wide margin.

since the takeover, I think the files are served from the same place as fileplanet.

talking about that, I guess sfirst released it to the fileplanet network of sites (is it IGN?). and not really relative, at the moment it is all I can find, this torrent option may be good but I have no clue how fast it is being uploaded. I choose to wait, it took about 20-30 mins for a queue position, then it downloaded in less than 5 mins.


... think i may found a bug, but probably me just not understanding the game. whilst researching energy stream weapons, right clicking shows it will produce anti-proton beam and point defence beam, however there is only picture at the top for the proton beam, it does however show both at level 1 when going to research level 2.

You need a bittorrent client like utorrent or azureus, then you just download the torrent file, open it with the client of your choice, and you're off!

Go here: www.bittorrent.com

Download and install the program. Then download the torrent file and open it. It will ask you to pick a directory, where it will place the file(s) downloaded by the Torrent. Once the download is complete, just go to directory you picked and run the file.
