Sims 3 [How to download it]

[efq]

Before attempting the following, be aware that piracy is a criminal offence.
None of the actions in this thread will infect your computer with viruses, it is completely safe and if you think there is then don't bother continuing.

As many people are interested in downloading it, instead of posting in the hundreds of threads in this forum how to download it etc then follow the guide and ask you questions here and you should have no trouble.

Ok, note it won't be a hour or two download even if you're on a 10000mb internet. The ratio of seederseechers isn't good at the moment. So expect maybe having to leave it on over night or something.

--------------------------------------------------

1. First of all, go to BitTorrent or uTorrent and download either of them.
2. Once you have finished downloading either of them, install it.
3. When that is complete please go to http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/4913...ms_3-Razor1911 and click 'DOWNLOAD THIS TORRENT' or click here to download it directly. (THIS IS THE FULL VERSION - This is what everyone will receive if they paid for it but of course people with the paid game will receive updates automatically that will have big features. When these come out then look around (or I'll post it) and you will be able to input it into your game)
4. Once you have successfully downloaded the torrent by either running or saving it. If you saved it open it and then a box with open showing a list of files.
5. You can change the directory where you want the files to be saved at the top, otherwise just click 'OK'
6. Now it will be visible in the torrent program you're using, now this is optional but has been proven to speed up your download. Right click the file and click 'Force Start'.
7. Right click it again and go to 'Bandwidth Allocation' and select 'High'.
8. Now again right click it and go to 'Properties'
9. Now in the box 'Maximum upload rate (kB/s): [0:default] change it from 0 to 1. This will make sure the upload rate is stays around 1kb and won't affect your download rate.

If you wish to buy the game legally

Is this even legal to encourage piracy?!

Thank you, you reminded me of a link I should add for people to test if they can actually run it before they download it.

Is it really worth it? It's pre release so it'll be missing stuff.

It's the final, they can't change things that are in the final because that would mean re-calling all games and editing them or making new games.

What is in this is what anyone who pre-ordered will get. If you payed for it, EA can put an update on the first day that this won't have but you will be able to download off piratebay and input it in your game. You will be able to have all the features as someone who pays for it, just takes a little more work.

Is one leaked a while back the final version too then? :S

It's a good game, but the people who will be getting the full game will also be able to download a 2nd town 'Riverview' and they'll also be able to download things from the Exchange, which is a place where you can upload your own or download other peoples creations and add them to the game. Im not sure if you'll be able to do this with an unregistered copy, because it's connected up to an official EA website. They might find a way, but I doubt you'd be able to use the exclusive 'Sims Store' which is where you can buy new items like you can on Habbo for SimPoints, you get 1,000 free when you buy the game, which is another benefit.
