| 593751 | 2007-09-21 12:16:00 | Hello everyone, I just into torrents because its the only way to download the latest version of Americas Army. The torrent program isn't working well, I did a search on this forum, seems Orcon is limiting P2P traffic, I'm wondering if theres anyway to get around this? If not, what ISP is recommended? Timbo |

| 593752 | 2007-09-21 14:11:00 | Have you read The Rules (pressf1.co.nz)? 5) Subject Matter: Asking for, or giving advice on how to pirate software will not be tolerated. This includes posting links to sites where Warez, no-CD hacks, keygens etc can be found. And yes, this also covers advice on how to illegally gain access to a commercial service, such as Sky TV.You are on very shaky ground, you have just posted here asking for advice on pirating a computer game. Why can't you just buy it on disk from a shop? |

| 593753 | 2007-09-21 14:32:00 | You're outta your tree Bletch - America's Army is a free game. Timbo - you can download it from Xtra's site (games.xtra.co.nz), not sure if you have to be an Xtra customer, but worth a try as the speed is very good. Alternatively try Gamearena (www.gamearena.com.au) - I think you have to register first. And a third option, if you're prepated to pay five bucks for a disk and postage I'll burn a copy to dvd and post it to you. The latest is 2.8.2 - available as a 1gig patch for 2.8.1. As of yesterday Xtra doesn't have the full latest version, but you can get the previous version plus the patch. Gamearena have the full version 2.8.2 - 3 gigs. |

Thanks for the link Greg, now downloading. - 400kbs, will be done in 2hours Do they? I'm with Orcon and torrent regularly. NO problems here Are you using port forwarding? Default ports? Yeah, I've got all that port stuff sorted. I was up late last night, seems Orcon isn't stoping torrents when everyones asleep, my torrent program just magically picked up. - Though was only 50kbs compared to 400kbs off GameArena I'm getting right now. I'm a new customer, just finishing 1st months billing cycle today. Maybe they don't have restrictions for old customers. |
