Unable to extract torrent/direct download client via Winrar

Hi Everyone,

I have recently downloaded the first file for the warhammer client via direct download with google chrome as well as internet explorer and attempted to extract the file with Winrar but can't download the other files due to "Sorry, max connections reached. Try again later" and have encountered two errors where it says 1. You need to have the following volume to continue extraction (In this case the client), Insert a disk with this volume and press "OK" to try again or press "Cancel" to break extraction. 2. Cannot open C:\Users\Users Name\Downloads\Age_of_Reckoning_client.z01, The system cannot find the file specified. I have also attempted to download via the torrent option and got an Error: The archive is either in unknown format or damaged. I have also used mega download to download the file with the address link but it doesn't seem to be downloading the file properly, it doesn't show much time is left and the amount of ram shown in the bottom right keeps decreasing then increasing. I have looked over the Client download issues and troubleshooting thread and the COMMON ISSUES - READ OR DIE - YES THAT MEANS YOU thread without seeing any explanation for the issue i'm having. I haven't tried utorrent yet since i've already tried mega download and the torrent option with no success. Any help would be most appreciated.

Sincerely,
XantheTargaryen

There is no more mega download links, as they weren't working (remove about 1 week ago).

Direct download is limited to 10 simultaneous users max, just to limit bandwidth usage.

Prefer download the client via torrent link, but you'll have to use a progam like utorrent for example in order to download the game. FYI, torrent link gives you the game ready to launch, you won't have to extract it.

So i just got War downloaded via utorrent, but now it's telling me two things when i try to open both WAR.exe and warpatch.exe.....1. This is when i click on WAR.exe: Warhammer cannot be run directly. Please run Warpatch.exe to patch and launch Warhammer. 2. This is when i click on warpatch.exe: The patch client was unable to update the file [C:Users\Name Of User\Downloads\Warhammer Online - Age of Reckoning\warpatch.bin] (O total errors encountered). Please ensure the game is not already running and there is free space available on the disk. I have unchecked the readme option in the settings for both files and set War.exe to administrator as well as allowing both to bypass my computers firewall with no success. I'm not sure exactly what went wrong.

I hope not, say any idea why there is a server full error everytime I click play? I looked around and some threads described it as a bug but I wasn't sure that's what it is.
