PoE2 v1.7 Released!

**Apophis** · 07-20-2007, 11:41 AM

Point of Existence 2 v1.7 Officially Released!
[Digg This!]

Amidst much fanfare, the v1.7 update to the popular BF2 mod, Point of Existence 2

(PoE2) has been released! I'm going to keep this short because you're most likely more interested in getting the thing downloaded than reading about it. Congratulations to everyone on the PoE2 development team for getting this out. We should see this new release breathe some much-needed life into this spectactular mod.

Tactical Gamer is pleased to announce that we have the client files up and available on our high-capacity BitTorrent tracker. You can download the file via BitTorrent by clicking here. Do everyone a favor, leave your BitTorrent client running once you're done downloading and help seed downloads for everyone else. The more people that do this, the faster the downloads will be for all.

Alternatively, If you are a Tactical Gamer Supporting Member, the file will be available via traditional download in the Tactical Gamer Downloads area.

Our PoE2 server has already been updated and is ready to go. We look forward to seeing you all on the server!

A checksum for the torrent.

Once you've got it downloaded, here's the MD5 for the .zip file:

Dugg!

**Melee** · 07-20-2007, 06:57 PM

Dugg and downloading now from SM section. BitTorrent said it was going to take 2 days to complete...is that correct?

ScratchMonkey · 07-20-2007, 07:40 PM

Nope.

Using uTorrent, I'm at 50% with an ETA of 1:40 hours, with a download speed of about 150 kBps.

The torrent will start out slow, so the initial ETA will be huge. Let it run 15 minutes before believing the figures. It takes some time for you to get listed with the tracker, and many clients won't talk to a client that hasn't been in the swarm for a bit, to penalize leechers.

Of course, you should stay in the swarm until your ratio reaches 1.0, to give back as much as you got. (This may take a few days, given the size of this download.) I'm currently serving CentOS5 and haven't yet reached parity, but everytime I fire up uTorrent, my contribution continues to climb.

If you'd like to help spread the file faster and you've already downloaded from TG, copy the downloaded file to a temporary directory and run your torrent client to "download" over the top of it. It won't actually download anything, and once it finds you have the whole file, will start sharing it to other torrent users.

Good idea on the copy and over-download...

Thanks,
SSA out.
