Hint: if you have a slow connection and 2.2 not ready better start downloading 2.2.

....

How slow a connection are we talking here?

56kbps, cut 40% off, around 30kbps, FH2.2 is ~2600000KB or ~ 2600000*8 ~21000000kb

21000000/30 = 700000s

estimating means it's ~11600 min     or    ~ 200 hours  that means ~ 8 days.

Sorry I do all this by rough brain estimates, hope there are no big deviations (too lazy to use a calculator)


that's really slow if it's 56kbps.

if it's ~ 5 kbps I think it would be around a month, but I don't see which poor guys have such slow connection



last note: please tell me if I am not too excited

If your calculations are correct, then you are just mirroring my excitment...

Sadly, I wouldn't have the net by then... guess I need to get someone on DL duty pronto!

Hmm...  You guys removed the divided Villers?  I never got to fight between "Villers East" and "Villers West" in the WaW scrims but I figured it would be intense close quarters fighting around there.  Then again, I guess if you hide a couple SLs in those ruins, the effect can be similar...

Also, WTF?  2.25 already has a projected size?  That's...amazing and unbelievable at the same time.  They can only know how big it is if it's close to done, right?

We can only hope! What I'm trying to figure out is why the patch is so big? We're looking at a few maps and a few vehicles, and obviously statics and the like. I expected more like 400-500 MBs or so ... not nearly a gig!

[Zoologic]

I believe it is because of the improvement of some of the sounds. But i can't wait for the surprises.

Gotta felling that this gonna be a new year present.

Talking about Updates. Today i had a dream (Well a couple of minutes ago) about a newsupdate.

It was called.. "This is why Finland is so Biased"

It showed a house, in a map, the map looked like a BGF Map. Anyways, you could use a Num Pad, with two section. One, from 1-9 and the other one, called "Tris" (Wich is a 3DSMAX Thingy i belive) from 1-6. You could click on these buttons. The Pad was Grey, everty button was White. When you click on a button, it turns Orange (Just like in Max).

Anyways, it also Showed a PPSH41, a Ugly DP and the last photo was about "Flickering Grass" and it showed nothing but, grass.

Crazy but so realistic.

Yeah kinda Off Topic but i wont revive any thread to post this.

I also had this crazy dream when i was sick.

I dreamed the whole night that i saw a Ratte in front of me in the fields.
Not just one ratte, sometimes 2  or 3

Nobody was firing though.

yet the most weird part was that they had SHERMAN GREEN camo color, yet still had swastikas en iron crosses on it

Haha

It was a very random dream, maybe because Flippy said, once "Finland Bias" or something like that.

Plus in the dreams you are telling the truth, if you studied Psychology..

Huh... I thought you died if your body temperature ever went below 86 degrees...

Only explanation: Theta is a zombie.  Time to break out the shotgun.  Say goodbye to your head, buddy.

I'd like to point out that anyone with a body temp of 86 degrees is either dead or a zombie.  Time to break out the shotgun.  Say goodbye to your head, Ionizer.

You guys and your Fahrenheit system!
