800 kilobytes = 6.25 megabit[/QUOTE]
Now now. The thing about bits and bytes can be pretty misleading.
If you go here [url]http://speedtest.net/user-settings.php[/url] you can change it to say Megabytes
From looking at it, its mb for megabits and mb for megabytes. Of course I'm going to get confused.

Capitalization.
MB is Megabytes Mb is megabits.

Huh, if you change the speed test settings to Megabytes every image changes, not just yours. It must be a setting tied to your cookies/IP
I don't understand why Rockstar are releasing a preload when its only a few hours until release. Sure, its still a preload, but its a bit of a late one. A very late one.

Well if it comes out around 2-3PM EST that is still 10-9 hours.

Considering the amount of people that will jump on steam to preload, it'll be impossible for some, or just agonisingly slow.

Maybe it's not Rockstar's fault?
I usually just set my download region to Iceland or Greenland. It's relatively close to the Netherlands and noone actually uses the server.

That is true.
[QUOTE=Jericho_Rus;36143135]Maybe it's not Rockstar's fault?[/QUOTE]
50/50 I suppose, Valves fault for taking so long, and Rockstars fault for not getting the preload submitted earlier.
Has Rockstar announced regional activation times yet?
But on twitter, it sounds more like Rockstar are doing the work to get a preload, not Valve. I've no clue how it works.

Don't think so, but I would assume it would be the same time its unlocked on steam? Which is at midnight.

Steam says it's going to be released in 14 hours.
That's like 5AM UK time, right?

Oh, you are UK. I'd assume what you said then, yeah.
well the countdown changed from noon June 1st EST to Midnight tonight yesterday. I'm assuming that is the final release time.
I'm thinking it will be released simultaneously everywhere.
I'm still waiting for my special edition from Tesco.
Seeing Dr. Bob's arrive before mine made me all the more jealous.
Its about to get night here, so a preload would be real nice.

No idea, sorry.

Oh christ, didn't even see it above me.
And there's the pre-load.
And steam servers are too busy to handle any more pre-loads. Goddamnit.
[editline]31st May 2012[/editline]
Oh hell yeah it just started now. 2 MB/s
