Title: "Legally Downloaded" link for TS3? Post by: WildPigeonChase on 2012 July 11, 20:21:43 After searching many threads, I have found references to but have not been able to find any verified links to torrents for TS3 (base game). I can find some via google, but I wanted to see if anyone knew of any safer non-virus ones that others have used beforehand. Any one know of any? (ISO, BIN/CUE format)
After consideration, I decided to post this here rather than in the The "Where Can I Find This CC?" thread because, well, this isn't CC. In case anyone was thinking that. Title: Re: "Legally Downloaded" link for TS3? Post by: SendMeLies on 2012 July 11, 21:23:13 If Google failed you, try Bing.

Title: Re: "Legally Downloaded" link for TS3? Post by: WildPigeonChase on 2012 July 12, 06:42:38 Yeah, I can find a lot of links both from TPB and others using Google, but I just wanted to see if anyone had used a link before and could confirm it was safe, rather than just download one at random and hope it's virus/spam free.
Anyone use one before or have a friend use one that they can confirm is safe? I figured it couldn't hurt to do some research before downloading. Title: Re: "Legally Downloaded" link for TS3?

Title: Re: "Legally Downloaded" link for TS3? Post by: Mirelly on 2012 July 12, 14:38:14 The OP can consider itself let off lightly. FWIW. Base game torrentz are not easy to find. I've been trying, on and off for months without success. I either find one with so few seeds and poor download speed that completion is scheduled for another geological age, or else -- as happened over the last weekend -- I get one which downloads at blistering pace and arrives impossible to open/use with any program.
I've concluded that the base game is old hat and is low priority on the torrents market. Either that or my benighted ISP (Sir Dickie Branson's) -- which has already blocked access to TPB (as if I couldn't find my way there by stealth) -- is doing other stuffs to my connection I am helpless to counter.

Post by: WildPigeonChase on 2012 July 12, 21:14:27 Blindly downloading stuff and depending 100% of your anti-virus scan isn't the smart way to avoid bugs. It's worth taking the two minutes to type out a question to double check.

It's worth taking the two minutes to type out a question to double check. Do you honestly trust other people more than your virus scan? Just read the comments on a torrent, then, and run your virus scan anyway. Title: Re: "Legally Downloaded" link for TS3?

It's worth taking the two minutes to type out a question to double check. That would be why you read the comments. If you're that terrified of trusting an anti-virus program, buy it used off Amazon. |
