MarketTantrik Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 You mean, even after u end your session those locations will continue to remain in some sort of cache? That's cool, but wont it be eating a lot of HDD space? It shouldn't be more than 3-4 GB in the full version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rAgHaV Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 I have a MTNL 256 UL connection so only 1st time load will take time and after loading it'll be smooth right ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffMonkey Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 Nope, not seeing it yet.And the download of the setup file (80MB) was really slow. Took more than an hour, but the patch (77 MB) was super quick. So PSN download speeds are still shaky. I must admit HOME looks really intriguing, but you will need a fast connection to derive maximum enjoyment because every location is being downloaded separately as and when you enter it, and the location data file are big. (relative to Indian connection speeds). Its understandable that you dont get it lol also, personally, i dont think im going to use Home that often, but good to know you guys like it.

Somebody Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 guys.... how long do u think it'll take to load a new area on a 256kbps connection ?? i mean on average Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarketTantrik Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 guys.... how long do u think it'll take to load a new area on a 256kbps connection ?? i mean on average It looks like each new location should have between 30 - 50 MB of data to be downloaded. So here's the math. Assuming 100% bandwidth availability (which never happens) 256 Kilobits per sec = 32 KiloBytes per sec = 1.9 MB per minute = 20-30 minutes per new location.

ARSC Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 i think its better to get a 512 connection which i am on right now... i dont think any provider gives a speed of 2-3 MB unlimited and if they do the price is above Rs-2500/- month.

BuffMonkey Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 for me ... 1mb / 4sec and since its 30-50, lets just take it at 40. 160 sec lol -- 2min 40 sec Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should be getting a 4 or 8 Mbps connection in a couple of months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
