Mythic have recently started opening up the Warhammer Online Beta to the masses and many anxious gamers, including some of our own staff, have finally got a place! However, a problem we and many other prospective Beta Testers have been experiencing is the amazing slow download option provided by Mythic. The 10Gb file available via Bit Torrent is currently being targetted by thousands and thousands of gamers, with no accessible alternatives available.

Needless to say, many gamers have given up on getting the Beta installed within the next 3 weeks… until now! We are proud to present you a method of downloading the Beta files 10x faster than with the torrent file provided. Here’s how it works…

Three of the first files torrent will bring down (all of which are small files under 2MB) are:

warpatch.exe
patch.myp
patch.cfg

Instruct the torrent to download just these three files.

Create a Warhammer Online folder and drop these three files in there. Double click the warpatch.exe and *fanfare* the client will download directly from Mythic.

We hope this gets you into Warhammer Online much quicker and hopefully EA wont mind too much!
