For future referance...all updates will live stream to you...leave your loging screen up while you sleep and you will never have to decompress anything....as I said before.

If your still confused about this, which I am sure you are...there is a "news" screen to the right of your log in information. Scroll down it, until you see the posted news item I am talking about.

And for further reference: Downloading and decompressing are two completely different operations. You first download something, then it decompresses on installation.

Download =
Transferring data (usually a file) from one computer to another.

Decompress=
Expand a file that has been made smaller using a compression utility.

during a Live Stream,(the amazing tech behind bit torrents and ANET's ablility to give us a game with NO weekly matenice like other games have. ) All of this was done for you while the login screen was up. It downloaded the files, decompressed them, and preloaded them. [assumming you were still connected to the network of course].

(sorry about the miscommunication, english is not my first language.)

Correct me someone?

I as I understand it this system will be more like FFxi (Final Fantasy 11 Online) not WoW (World of warcraft).

Meaning the controling factions of the towns and outposts are determined by a combonation of the faction gathered by the PvE and PvP of each side, then determining who holds the :
City, town, province, or territory?

Or will it be like WoW where each town is always in control of it's founding faction: For example the outpost Tanglewood Copes(sp?) will always be under Kurzick controle?

The purpose of tis is to keep each side doing PvE and PvP for a combined score that outweighs the others side in order to hold their land.

Right?

The new faces, some of the ugliest faces I have seen on a new game.

See that word up there? Patronizing? Don't do it. There's no call for that crap.

Of course I know where the news is. Of course I listened to it and left my client running at the login screen overnight. I STILL had to decompress (not download) about a thousand files at the first couple zones, lessening with each area thereafter.

There's absolutely no strategy involved when you end up being outnumbered 3 or 4 to one. Fighting "war of attrition" battles is very frustrating, and the repetativeness gets boring rather quickly.

I had the same probablems. I actually got to Jade Quarry in like 2 hours after the FPE started

. There's a tough group of Dredge guarding a bridge...you can go around however.

And for Ft. Aspenwood, I kept on dying. Then I went a different way and made it there without difficulty. After you went up the stairs, you can turn left, and there's a huge group with two Gardeners (eww), or there's a little door you can go through and wait and take those groups one at a time.

Forgive me for not just stooping directly down and saying "insert your own expletive combination here"....It's not my style.

I'm allergic to stupid I can't help it.

Only rather than sneezing when it comes near...education rushes out of my mouth at high speed.

I'll refrain from trying to help in the future.
