Of course, the moment he announces the release, thousands of people are going to be downloading it all at once. Watch the ivory server towers rock and sway...

So who's volunteering to NOT download it in the first 24 hours? (waiting for suckers...)
I wasn't going to anyway, because it'll be incredibly buggy.

But isn't that the fun of it?

I think maybe a torrent should be used.

What? It's been one day?!? Unacceptable. Is it possible that time has slowed somehow?
The Earth needs to upgrade. FPS is at unacceptable low.

You know what the problem is, right?

That'll kill any framerate right there.

I was going to suggest that, but who will upload it?

whoever is DF2010Downloader#1 (though it would be impossible to tell who actually is first, maybe whoever is 1487th?)

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

Does Toady mind if someone uploads it? I'd be quite willing to, or at least help seed, because I have a fiber optic connection.

Is there any reason why he wouldn't be able to upload it to filefront?  It's not just for mainstream games, you know.

Because FileFront is an abomination before God? Seriously though...FF sucks. I'd rather see it on something like Depositfiles or SendSpace or Rapidshare than FileFront.

Not necessarily. "About a week" means that it might take more or less. So a release might come at saturday or sunday too.

Let's also remember that his blog update stated that he was "on schedule" so it could mean we may see it on Friday.

But like everyone has said, don't hold your breath over it. It could be a day or two afterward.

Either way, the anticipation is driving me wild with the hunger to play the (buggy) new version.

You mean the "Still on track here" in the devlog? Or does he have another blog?

I wonder if the release is already done, and Toady is just browsing the forums enjoying our rampant speculation about what day it will come out on...

Should I figure out how to share a torrent by then, I'll do that too.

I keep thinking glacier fortress would be fun, but it always ends up as cave layer fortress.
