Fileplanet DEMO preload updating time has changed from 24 hours to 6

[happycat]

Previously, it would update every 24 hours, but now if you force an update using the Download Manager, it changes to 6 (SIX) hours.

This could mean a number of things, but one thing it does not mean is that the demo will be coming on Monday. In fact, typically when the time changes overall, then that means the demo is not far away (i.e. FilePlanet has certain knowledge of when it'll be released and/or is in the process of distributing the file already, just waiting for it to be available on all servers before allowing preloaders to preload the file... hence the shortening in auto-updating time).

So... though I am not Epic, I'd have to say that tomorrow is probably the day the demo officially comes out.

Discuss (or ***** about FilePlanet).

No -- he's saying that Fileplanet's software acting weird suggests Fileplanet anticipates a release *tomorrow*.

It isn't acting wierd. The timeframe for autoupdate has changed. They're expecting a worthy update (i.e. downloadable content) to be available in six hours.

I didn't mean acting weird in the glitchy sense. I meant it changed quickly without formal reasoning.

And I bought that box of games too... only to realize I'd need to wait a day to install them since the *2 DVDs* were only an online-download coupon apparently.

ever think that since it is still Friday at Epic on in North Carolina that what time it is where you are might not matter?
