umm fileplanet has ALWYAS had 2 modes of downloads availabe. one was instant downloads if you signed up for a paying account on the site AND a free download service that had you wait in like for a few minutes before a slot became available.
noone ever paid for a patch, just had the chance to get it faster.
i dont see what your problem is.

I dont see EA doin it so wtf is fileplanet selling a patch ?
fileplanet doesnt charge you for the download. they charge you for the high speed file server.
theres a big difference.
the patch is free.
always has been, always will be.
i know how fileplanet works, i've been waiting in that line myself before, im just lucky to have a paid account i won from fileplanet.
although fileplanet is not the only place to get the patch from.

Fileplanet arent charging for the file u tard, they are charging for the bandwidth your gonna use to download it. They offer a premium service, so if sumone does pay they get a fast, no queue and reliable connection.
If your a tight arse like prob 90% of us are we wont pay for it so we have to make do with the limited free service. Let me emphasis FREE. So you have to queue, so its FREE! your dl speeds are limited, so wot its FREE. If you dont like it, then go find somewhere else to download it, wait in the queue or cough up you hard earned cash! Fileplanet have to pay for the connections, this is just one way of doing it. Its business!

fileplanet is not its own ISP, never has been, never will be.
you should see how much file traffic they have a month.
so payng 5 bux makes it all ok No bandwith used ?Inquatitis wrote:

i didnt say that did i.
$5 gets you the fast download with no waiting.
$0 gets you the fast download with the line in front of it.
imagine if fileplanet was 100% free, how long do you think it would last?
would you donate to keep it alive, monthly to reach their goal to pay for their bandwith bill?
i think not.
with the subscriptions they solved this problem.
i was around when fileplanet first started and i remember a time when they wanted to shut down because of money issues.
now you can either wait in line for the file, find an alternate download link(two have been provided) or not.

Why is the concept of paying for a downloading service such a problem for you? If you don't like it then find an alternate download link, that's what I do!
actualy I would donate if it was providing public with help and so on, nukemods.com makes themes and so on, I donate on theyr website even thos it's nothing 2 do with Bf2 reason I get my help there ( as well as i try and help them out )Inquatitis wrote:

@ OP:
Open your eyes. Rinse them with 0.9 % saline solution. Put your reading glasses on.
The patch has been available from this amazing site since last night, *fast download* and *free of charge*.
There is a huge 1.21 banner at the top of every forum page.
But maybe you just needed to do some EA- and Fileplanetbashing.

i downloaded the patch this morning.
havent installed it yet.
nor will i till all my frequented servers install it.

we dont really live off donations thought, we have clan dues, but even that can get messy sometimes.

Chill out on the spelling/grammar policing. English is his 3rd language. Let's see how well you do in his native language?
badhq: Here's this entire thread in one simlpe post.
You would be paying for skipping the sometimes 5 hour lines for downloads. It's a service they offer.
This service they offer also uncaps your bandwidth. On my connection, I'd get 600kbs a second downloading a file from them with their service.
If you want a file website as good as fileplanet with no lines for free, go to filefront (just add the www.com). For free, lines might still be there but in the past year I've only had to wait a total of 2 minutes in line for 1.2. In the past year, for free service, there has never been another line for files.
There are plenty of other download mirrors, including BF2s, EA officials site, and other file sites.
The patch is free, the problem you have is with the middle man.
Speaking of which, because of the shitholes at fileplanet, I try to download something and it takes me to a page chock full of ADs for their advanced service with no further link to the actual download.
So in general, I hate fileplanet, same as you, but for a different reason.

The are running a business which sells fast access to MANY files, including, but not limited to beta downloads for games and games themselves. It's what they make thier money doing and you want them to give it away all for free?badhq wrote:
