Mind you, I was never under any illusions that i'd be playing this game any time today; i'll probably leave the torrent going overnight and play tomorrow morning.
It's something to do with my sodding router. It hates torrents. I've tried everything, but the damn thing just laughs, and spews blood in all directions.

The fact that Battlefield was awesome for LAN parties, and all it needed was less-buggy/laggy netcode and more teamwork: Precicesly what this gives. Not to mention, it has commander mode straight from NS. <3
