SE5 Patch 1.13 Out

[Ragnarok-X]

Weird President_Elect_Shang. You had 1.3 kb/s and were able to get 17 MB within 15 Minutes. You must use some space dimension x super connection.

Ha-ha-ha, oh boy…

Umm, what I was trying to say is that it might have not been that exact rate. However, it was very slow and with DSL it took over 15 minutes to get a paltry 17MB.

Sorry, didn’t think I would be taken so literally.

Heh just got mine installed yesterday, price is alittle high(since it is in dimension x dollars) but I think it will be worth it.

[Q]

I get an average of 4,5kB/s that means more than an hour of download!
Strategy First should really buy a better server.

[Q]

In the combat simulator the boarding crew of empire A enters the enemy ship of empire B (a small flag indicates the presence of the marines on that ship), but the boarded ship still acts under the control of the original empire B and fires on ships of empire A. So boarding is still broken IMO.
