1:03:56. Language NSFW, but who would be watching a one hour video at work?

This person is painfully bad at the game haha, but maybe they aren't much of an FPS player.

Anyways, game looks sweet and I can't wait to play!!! Haven't been this excited for a game to come out in a really long time!! wooooop

game was released today

 

[james.wired]

I have a feeling it's going to be a real chore getting it downloaded from Steam

 

[Trotter]

Won't be available on Steam until 5, or so I read.

 

[james.wired]

I mean pre-load, whoops. I am just happy that they are letting us pre-load though because for me if I could only download it on release, it would probably take an extra day to do so and that's if I got a steady connection to Steam.

I was perusing Steam's forum and came across someone advocating switching to the Ukrainian region to download as the Ukrainian servers are the emptiest. So... View > Settings > Download > Region... Bam! Currently downloading at ~90KB/s. Once I have it loaded I will switch back to US.

[EDIT] The speed is slowly climbing. Spectacular it ain't, but better then waiting for a few more hours.

 

[james.wired]

90kb/s? That's horrible!! The most I will get is 232 kb/s at full connect

 

[Trotter]

Around 180 now.

It's not great, but better than nothing. I may try some other servers to see if I can get better results.

[EDIT] Switched to Finland... ~580 or so now.

 

[james.wired]

I think that guy was yankin' your chain to try and get people off of the servers he was trying to pull more speed from, hehe. ~580 sounds good!!!
