Looks like I won't get my key until the 11th, hopefully the rush would have died down and I'll be able to download it over the weekend quicker.

I downloaded the game at work and took less than 12 minutes. If you want to move it to other machines just copy the depotcache folder out of steam to another PC with steam.

Sheesh, no wonder I don't have much internets. You have it all. :) When I do get the game it will take me about 36 hours to download 59 GB but it doesn't really matter because if I like the game I just keep it on my HDD to play again later without having to download again.

You must be very close to a steam server.
I had about 5.8MB/s while I have a 50Mb fiber connection.

1Gbs connection and I used the atlanta server (about 75 miles away) it was going around 40-50MBPS.

This may have already been said in a link (some are blocked where I work) but I'm seeing estimates that Rockstar has shipped around 45 million copies of GTA V and I saw an article posted a year ago on Forbes that it had already generated over 2 billion dollars is sales. Where this game sales will end up will be staggering. The only thing that will beat it...........GTA VI of course. :)

Am I the only one that thinks that pre-loading a game you've already bought, and having the data sitting on your PC, unusable, is stupid? Like, I own this game...if the game is on MY pc already, why can I not play it? Because some random date must pass? When it's been delayed already? Why must I wait? THIS ND Similar things are why PC gaming doesn't get wider adoption, and consoles are so popular. Ain't no pre-loading on consoles...

I have 2 TB of space :) it can sit there patiently until release. I just wanted to take advantage of the speeds I get at work to download it then move it to my home PC.

Yeah, us downloading it isn't what bothers me...it's the fact they don't give us the full game when clearly they could have.

They want to maximize sales and hype. Game is entertainment industry too. Some dates are better than the others.

just like shops that have the dvd's but cannot sell them or movie cinemas that have the latest movie waiting for the "great day". Welcome to the world of trade&business gurus!

BTW, regarding graphics: Is thsi supposed to be the best looking game ever, until now? All the buzz makes it sound like that, but the 60 frames youtube video does not look specially good! Or?
(And I don't believe game$ magazine$ days before launch!!)

From all indications, Max Payne 3 isn't far off. Given GTA V will be open world, so the load will be more strenuous.

Do you mean a benchmarking tool for the game or a benchmark which people who do not own the game can download?

The game seems to have a built in benchmark.

That's true. It would be cool if they could do like a small section of a street or something. Then again the assets are gigantic.

A bench for peeps who do not own it; I meant.

You all lucky to have such fast connections :\
I was supposed to get the physical copy (staggering 7 disc) but it seems more expensive here, unlike other games in which physical copies are usually less expensive





inb4 spending around an hour testing or tweaking the game first before actually playing it :D
