Now we will continue understanding how torrent works, see the diagram below?

The good thing about torrent is anyone can be a server or source of download. From the first download seed, see the middle to everyone downloading the file. In torrent, sharing is promoted…

The source of the file isn’t just the first seed. Other gamers who have downloaded the file are now able to share of what they have already downloaded.

Let’s say, the gray one only have 77% downloaded file. He/she can already share that 77% to everyone.

In this sense, there is no singular source of download. Everybody shares, every have good download speed.. everybody happy!

So even if you already finished your download at 100% don’t close your torrent so you can still share to others. Now, I know somebody of you may think “will this affect my internet speed”. It depends relatively, there is downstream and upstream. In torrent if you download something of course you are now using downstream bandwidth, and if you share to others it will be upstream bandwidth. It’s a two way traffic and doesn’t afftect each other. Eitherway, you can adjust your upstream to the lowest sharing bandwidth. It still helps if you do lower it.

So be sure to collect and share your game clients using torrent. We recommend utorrent (read as “mini-torrent), Happy Gaming!
