Quick Poll: Download time

[F Smith]

Is anyone bothered by a 5 meg download of a Java2 vm update file pushed to you the first time you play Clash?

[Dominique]

NP for me, but don't forget that the people writing here are more or less enthusiastic about CLASH, so the answers won't be representative in any way for the average player.

[Mikael]

No problemo for me.

[F Smith]

'Nique:

You're right, of course.

But it's still relevant to whether we're going to use Java2 from the get-go. If we are, people are going to have to be willing to get it to use the demos and alphas.

[Peter Dobrovka]

It's OK, if it is only once.

Path of Mankind. Turnbased Civ-like game - demo 15 coming soon

[Blade Runner]

OK for me.

No problem here.

5MB ? That sounds very small to me. After all, the civ games are all weighing in at 100MB or more, arent they?

We're going to have some large data files too.

But.. to answer your question.. a 5MB download once per software upgrade would be OK.
