    Lol that's because back then redirect weren't in use since they were so expensive so everyone had to download non compressed straight from the server....

    I know, right... now that I think about it...the WHOLE reason I got DSL at home was because my son nagged and nagged and threatened to throw a fit if I didn't... all because I sat out the download and let it start. His eyes got so wide when it FINALLY started up. I think that was the last time I actually got to use that computer until I broke down and built him his own. He was 10 at the time, now he's 24. (I had the beta release of UT if your wondering about the dates, wish I could find that file...)

    EDIT: and the download from those servers IF you were lucky was DSL (256K) YIKES... can you imagine...I can, I remember. I remember when the Z-Modem protocol first showed up too, (TCP/IP)..and the 'sliding window' support... commonly known today as LAG.

    I remember I had ISDN and it take forever to download a map if everyone playing on it or keep switching map or timed up, so I went on a monster hunt server and being able to play there.

    Then surprisingly, a few months later I was able to get DSL, which runs a lot better. I may be able to download map right before the game end on a regular sniper server but hey, much better!
