Sign up before January 15th 2005, and Anarcy Online will be free to download, and free to play until January 1st 2006.

Will be worth checking out what is different with the client now, as previously it was very buggy when I tried it before. This was prior to any mission packs though. Maybe things have changed in 2years, who knows.. I just now this is one hell of a Christmas present from FunCom!

Seemed interesting but there's nobody sharing the BT and the FTP server is full. Also:

Quote: "Should Funcom deem that a too high-increase in server load or other unforeseen events will lessen the experience for existing players the offer will be terminated at our discretion. The free version does not include access to any of the three expansion packs. Should you wish to upgrade to any of the expansion packs monthly subscription and client fees will be added."


Some nasty fine print there

Err, are you mad? If you use an official BT link, theres 1599 seeds and around 5000 peers

Anyone know how to download it? I downloaded the thing off their website.. then the bit torrent thing.. then it started at about 320 hours, now it's jumped to over 500... and increasing... I dont really feel like letting that run for months.

Did I miss a secret download link or something?

Torrent doesn't let you download fast untill you help a torrenter.

Be sure you're not using IE without a download manager.

Do not bother getting Anarchy Online.

It is a surprisingly dull game. I was unfortunate enough to pay for a couple months back only to discover that not only the game-play sucks, but the servers are as dry as my cat's ass.

The most people I ever met was around 5...

Only 2 actually talked to me.

well megaton you'd be surprised, now that the noobs are floodin in the servers are chokka's with people, they opened up a new server to handle the flow of newbs takin the free offer. im on teh orignal server, and im lvl 28 now, i have my own car but cant drive it till i get 100 more points in ground vehicles. btu when im done im goan open up a trading group that smuggles stuff and does delivery missions for clans and factions etc. kinda like firefly i will havea crew of a few diff people. and I also got another piece of sids armor, all i need are teh sleeves, its awesome i look like one of the fetts but with red and purple armor, i don't use it for more than socializing cause its low level armor.
