Holy freaking crap that was painless. I'm so used to SE-related things being difficult. It's downloading the game now.

It's 4AM for me, bud. I still have a 2-3 hour download ahead of me. I might go nap for that time.

It just sped up to a 2.5MBps speed. Maybe it won't be that long after all.

I actually had one window open from yesterday and when I refreshed it at 5, it took me to the actual options. However, when I opened another version of the same page, I'm getting the exact response as you.

^ Thanks guys.

So am I correct in assuming that we don't need the 20 digit code for beta? I'm clear to start the download, once I'm not at a work PC.

No code needed. The sign-up automatically grants access to the account.

Mine has ping-ponged a bit as well, but now is sitting steady at 2MBps-2.5MBps.

About 30 minutes left.

On PS3, almost 50% currently, will probably be done before 5AM PST

You guys are lucky, I just started my download and it's pretty steady at 0.63 MB/s... Got 220 minutes to wait :/

Glad it went smoothly Teracide!

:)

I was going to suggest putting that link into the OP. I'll bet you will be either sleeping or playing for some time now. Have fun!
