Well yeah but I still can't believe that so many people seeded this before I got my hands on it. Seems everyone chose torrent. Anyway, I think I'll leave this up all night, to upload as much as possible.

We should have a contest to see who will have the most uploaded.

I'm almost done downloading... I'm probably going to be up most of the night looking for any bugs or glitches.

Allright, somehow it fixed itself after 10 minutes of nearly 1kb and went up to 150kb. It's obviously an act of god...... to thank him I'll help upload...

I have to download ESF 1.2.3 all over again, and it's going at 10 kb/s, that's great.

The question is. Why in the world would you do that to play 1.3

You don't need 1.2.3 to play the open beta.

Guys LegendarY said his file was damaged. That is, he couldn't unzip it. So don't blow your heads off if maybe it doesn't work.đ

EDIT: scratch that. He was just opening a cancelled file. Note to self: ROUTERS ARE EVIL!!!

Well dude, HarSens was probably the one that uploaded it, and he didn't create an installation file he just zipped his esf folder and thats why his name stayed. I think.

Yes. As more builds are released, the text at the top will change to reflect the date the build was released/made.
Correct. Its the file hars updates every time. So its always his name. Thats why o don't update the config.cgf file unless a new feature is added that involves new keys ^^


That way i get to keep my key configuration AND my name ^^

Okay, great fun, dled it...just one thing...HOW THE F*** DO I PLAY IT??? There is absolutely no explanation as to what we do with the game, as there's no auto-install application. Best I could think to do was to extract the zip folder into a folder alongside the ESF folder. Well, steam now recognizes a game called "Earth's Special Forces Open Beta", but says that the game is currently unavailable. I searched the whole folder and found no icon of any sort to initiate ESFOB. Could someone explain? I get this awesome news, and I get left in the dark; worst yet, I go to the place where everybody's talking about it and all I find is "Oh this is awesome! But what's up with this and this?" and no questions of my sort anywhere which indicates that I'm a total dumbass who was the only one not to understand the installation process.

Not to say that this doesn't look rockin' from the premier video, because even in beta form it looks kickass, but I HATE watching when I know I can check it out for myself...

EDIT:

Oh wait...never mind, steam just started it...^_^; my apologies...
