Lol yeah that thing hogs every single piece of bandwidth that it can find. There is a limiter though, for future reference.bah damnit... the launcher was raping my bandwidth to an extent I couldn't even browse, so I stopped it till I went to bed. Alas, I forgot to start it last night

Be glad it uses all the bandwidth. With the previous launcher you struggled to get more than 120 KB/s no matter what line you had. So I'm just glad they fixed that. Do you know how long it takes to download 27GB at that speed?
Loool ouch, those must have been tough times. XD glad I never had to experience that, I joined in the better days.

Oooh! I will give this a try for sure, thanks! Good find!
So I got in some game time - Word of warning the flight tutorial is bugged at the moment - every now and then game freezes for 2-5 seconds rendering it rather unplayable. This is no matter what settings you have.
Arena Commander free flight and combat modes work well though. I was having fun taking on wave after wave of the vanduul swarm.
The buggy tutorial has become a bit of a irritating issue in some parts of the community. Along the lines of why bother encouraging new players join with things like free fly weeks when the thing that many of them are going to head to first is such a poor reflection of the game?
The devs do acknowledge that the flight tut is bugged as heck and have said that it'll be worked on, but right now it's not a huge priority. I think a lot of CIG's resources are being pushed into getting Squadron 42 ready for release.
That said, glad to hear you got some time slaying alien scumin Arena Commander. Have you had a chance to check out Port Olisar and the mini-universe yet? Fair amount of mini-missions to do in there. Should give you a reasonable idea of the SC game play possibilities.

Totally agree with that since the tutorial was my first port of call, was about to give up on trying the game out further. I went to some planet - not sure if it was Olisar but all you could do there was walk around as far as I could tell. Will check out the guide though. After playing attack waves I'm keen to play again, it reminded me a bit of Starlancer which had some fun dogfights. I really dig the decoupled mode, with a bit of practice I'm sure I could become a space drift kingThe buggy tutorial has become a bit of a irritating issue in some parts of the community.
