Default You can download seasons now?
I didn't know you could download the seasons early... but I'm downloading it now! Has anyone else gotten this preview?

Hmm, ok. I tried to access it, but maybe I live in the wrong country or something. It seems to be that I'm not allowed to download it. Lucky you

They did this with other EPs as well. You can download 99% now and the other 1% on the release day.
#13 Old 25th Feb 2007 at 2:32 PM
wastedwords, were you able to download the whole thing, or just 99%?

ETA: Question answered!

So what does that mean then? You can download it but not play it?

#16 Old 25th Feb 2007 at 5:57 PM
i think you can pay and dnowload it but they have it set up so you actually can't play it till the "official" release date.....otherwise no one would buy in the stores.
#17 Old 25th Feb 2007 at 6:02 PM
Yeah, D/L 99% now. And the remaining 1%file on release day. I did that with Pets. I was living in NZ,and got the US version. I had to get up at 6am,but who cares? I had to be up at 7 for school! hehe!

What's the point of downloading 99% of something, and not being able to play it?

#19 Old 25th Feb 2007 at 6:31 PM
I think they just avoid clogging their servers if most people d/l just the one percent on release day - think of it this way - what is better - 1000 people d/l 707 Mbs, or 1000 people d/l 7 Mbs?
#20 Old 25th Feb 2007 at 7:10 PM
coltraz,with EA LINK, download 99% so for the release day,you dont have to spend 6hrs at the computer waiting for it to download! And I agree with Ashden,I think its for the servers too. With Pets,it took about 20mins to get that 1%, it locked up,so I had to use TM to close the EA Link down. THen tried again n it went wonderfully.
