Full Monty Brown Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 probably a stupid question, but what time does the Demo come out in UK time on Sunday? I want's to get me greedy little hands on it as early as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sensai of Mattitude Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 GDS don't say release times of demos or full games to prevent overloads of people refreshing the main page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil Peters Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 What you dont realise is that excessive refreshing crashes the server, and if its done before its uploaded it would cause the server to crash, then Adam wouldnt be able to upload the game.

Ghetto Anthony Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 The trial took me ages to download for some reason, I guess it was all of the traffic. The time it takes to download the demo tomorrow is going to be hell! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrokenCycle Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 Is it really necessary to be one of the first people downloading a demo version of a wrestling simulator? I mean, I'll download it the first day but I'm not silly enough to continually press F5 to see if it's available at 4 in the morning. But maybe I'm the crazy one, I actually like sleeping.

crayon Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 I'm making good use of the time before it's out to try and squeeze as many new workers into my mod as possible.. I may even have something playable (if not very good) if I buckle down ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djthefunkchris Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 I just check the forum. They always announce it when it's ready, and sometimes provide a nice little link. I'm going to be around here anyways, as I'm using my computer to work on some things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaxxHexx Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 I work tommarow, and I hope that I get to see it for a bit before I have that. Otherwise I will just spend my non working hours watching Round Robin Challenge from 2002 instead of doing homework. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sensai of Mattitude Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 I'm just going to tone down the crazy factor and very calmly refresh the forums at sensible time intervals, my heart skipping a beat every time the forum's skin appears on my monitor. :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No use in bogging down the main page, it will only make it harder (and take longer) to release it. I can't wait for it either, but I'm not going to the main page till after I see it posted here somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
