Fixed it for peeps.
Out of every 100 men, 10 should not be there,
80 are nothing but targets, 9 are the real fighters.
Ah, but one, ONE of them is a warrior,
and he will bring the others home.

im having the same issue and already posted about all I got was everyone telling me to suck it up and to use torrents blah blah. it doesnt matter there are errors on the torrent download too. so looks like i dont get to play the pvp weekend. funcom im very disappointed in you. im not paying to play beta either. im gonna wait till launch and read reviews from nda folks and real reviews from mags and stuff.
for now ill play lotro and vanguard im having fun with both.
This must be heaven for any hacker who wants to spread his bot net through infested torrents

LOL.... seriously i downloaded all four parts and got it installed within 4-6 hours. You guys give up to easy.
You are from the u.s i see.
Nah seriously i'm drunk
Yeah I'm using the gamestop downloader and it's slow but I'll deal with it cause this is most likely the only chance I'll get to see this game since I have no use for a fileplanet sub.
You need to face reality and understand that there are many people having problems with this instead of trying to dismiss the problem like it doesn't exist.
I left the Gamespot Torrent running for 12+ hours and it was up to a whopping 15%. The time estimate was for another 24 hours.
I decided to ignore Gamespot's recommendation, turned off piece of junk and used the Rapidshare link that other's have posted. That is working much better.
Just because you happened to get lucky doesn't mean there are not real issues. And it doesn't give you the right to dismiss them just because you got what you wanted.
I got my invite Wednesday.
It took about 3 hours each for the first 3 parts and 2 or so for the 4th part.
I just left it running while I slept, checked it in the morning, went to work, when I got back it was good to go.
I DID have to deinstall and then reinstall the Gamespot downloader thingymajig.
Before I did the reinstall I would get to 99% download and it would stop.
Just wipe it out, reinstall it, and keep downloading.
I didn't even lose any download time / % it all came right back.
The PvP weekend started already right? I am still downloading and only 40 more min to go.
