Hi,

how are you going to handle the mass of downloads when the game is released in a few days? Do you have enough traffic bandwidth to handle all users?

We are not hosting the client on our server - there will be a number of mirrors which should be able to handle the traffic.

Okay, great. I guess you won't need another (probably rather small) mirror site, then. ;)

How about using Torrents to spread it around?

Not necessarily a bad thing. World of Warcraft uses Torrents for their updates and several other companies are using them to push out updates. Just was a thought :) Cant wait till tomorrow.
