Depends which one it gets uploaded to.

Macabre · 26 Feb 2007 at 15:37

I'll wait for Xfire to get it since my download won't time out on that.

Gerard · 26 Feb 2007 at 15:38

According to the ea forum around 10am pst which is around 6pm here.

Hopefully babyharpseal will upload it to the Blueyonder FTP, 10mbit+ speeds then

Can't wait for this demo! woo

So its getting released soon? Or just for Fileplaneters?

killer_uk · 26 Feb 2007 at 15:50

If we fileplanet guys get it, everyone else will have it, it's just we will already have it downloaded to play as soon as it comes out.

There will be a link on the CnC3 website as well, this isnt just Fileplanet exclusive though they get it first due to pre-loading.

Taken from the ea forum:

O YEAH, THE DEMO!!!!!

I’ll leave you with this, the official demo for Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars, that you’ve waited many years for, the gripping feeling knowing that C&C is back, Kane is back, Tiberium is back, ok, well lets say it right now:

C&C is officially back tomorrow as the demo for Command &# 38; Conquer 3 will be going live on our official site at www.commandandconquer.com AND EA LINK, as well as FilePlanet.com whom we know many of you have already pre- loaded with. Keep your eyes peeled on both sites for the moment the file is live, tomorrow is the day!

Going to be until at least 10AM PST time, no need to stay up a ll night....

What newsgroup(s) is that then?

Just go to an indexing site like newsbin and do a search for it, It's usually a case of grabbing the .nzb file and downloading it with something like Newzbin Pro or Newsleecher (my choice). it's incredibly easy and one of the fastest ways to download possible

PS. Demo's are often uploaded to "alt.binaries.games"

Nicely done mate, cheers for that.

depends on your isp

blueyonder has great free usenet servers
if your isp doesnt have a free server you will need to pay
check out newsdemon or giganews for decent paid servers

gord · 26 Feb 2007 at 17:08

Less than an hour to go then now.

Talbs13 · 26 Feb 2007 at 17:13

Cant Wait! I hope it matches the quality of the gameplay of Red Alert 2 - THE BEST game in the C&C Series IMHO.

tuftyfella · 26 Feb 2007 at 17:21
