Oh it's been released all right. Just that we can't log into the actual game right now, only patch.

That server status page is so misleading :rolleyes:

it's about 140mb with the optional patch included, but you have to apply the patches as well which takes almost as long for me :P
but with about 200kb/s down the downloading itself is pretty bearable, will probably take me an hour or something to fully patch the thing.

Its setup to be at that speed to ensure that the dl isnt drained by high connection players ;)

It dls at 1-3 speeds depending on ur connection so that other users are not slowed down when dling ;)

Called A Fair System

Other Note hurry up and open the server :P

It was explained in another post by (lawrence i believe) is that even though the shard says open (after a reboot patch) it is only open to limited access ie GM's devs. Hence why you see shard is open and you get error shard not available. (though it would be good if they could modify it with Open (GM access only) but this is more of a nice to :)
