I have already preloaded Portal 2 the day before, but now I see myself having to download it all over again...
Can someone help me with this? It's my birthday and I can't even play the game I bought.
-i'll just ask in the annex-

I pre-loaded it too... and this second download is taking almost as long... does anyone know of ways I can speed up the download? All my friends are playing it already
I want to play fast, and decrypting too slow.
Well, i'm stuck.
Got to the third course with a friend so far.
Received a flag.
People are finding evidence of this being a console port...:smithicide:
Gah, stuck already. FML. :saddowns:

After 4 hours of downloading, we hope it has been worth the weight

Time to play bitches
Well fuck it, i give up. Hope there's gonna be a walkthrough soon.
I tried asking [url=http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1078267-The-Items-for-games-trades-Megathread]here[/url], bud so far, no luck.
I'm trying to get Portal 2 with 2 Buds and a Bills. I'm only missing 1 Bud but I want to 'reserve' the game from someone until I get the last thing and trade away.
Anyone able to help me, maybe someone fixed it? I can't play, it crashes to desktop after i load the SP D:
[sp]How are you holding up? Because I'm a potato.[/sp]
Pity coop stats aren't showing up in the steam community.
Everybody in any game right now on my friends list is playing Portal 2.
I've reached such a stage in the game that even mentioning anything would be an enormous spoiler or at least raise troublesome questions.
hang on, after I clicked play my "download" of portal 2 took 10 minutes
Well mine jumped to complete after being stuck at 32% for about 30 mins or so, and the update went really quick. This seems to be the case for most people who had their progress bar stuck at certain points like this...hope this offers a bit of light to the end of your tunnels (those of you still stuck anyway).
Anyone able to show me what to do here? It seems like a complete dead end.
In order:

It's easy for strings like this to get mixed up during development. On the console versions we can fail cert for not having a string warning the user not to shut off the console. We can also fail cert if the string says "Please don't turn your PC off...". So as such the strings get changed to be appropriate on the console (usually during the phase where we are heavily testing consoles and working to pass cert late in development). In this case it looks like a bug that the string was also changed on the PC version.
That really has no bearing on which platform is the "lead" platform, all of the platforms are important to us and it's certainly not true that the game was built for consoles and then ported to PC. Like most of our past titles PC in fact tends to be the most used platform internally during much of development, though consoles get plenty of love too since we want to ensure quality across the board.
I have only played 10 minutes, but can't wait for Portal 2: Episode 1.
Kidding ofcourse :)
If anyone gives a shit:

Spoilers.
I feel like I beat half of the game already
Anyone else think Portal 2 wasn't that hard?

At least you've managed to even open it yet :( I want to play it so bad, updating... 64%
It's getting there at least
It's been working for about an hour now, I love it!
How big is/was the update that you guys all did before you played portal 2? Mine seems much bigger than what I thought it should be... but i def pre-loaded it before today
Holy crap this game is optimized.
Episode 2 runs a bit iffy on my 3.2ghz P4 and Radeon HD3850 AGP. It has to be tweaked to make it work well enough (notably I got to play in 1280x1024).
Portal 2 on the other hand can run on my native screen resolution (1600x1200) and have your glitzy AA and such and the P4 isn't pegging. The performance, short of an audio lag at the beginning, has been VERY good so far.
Valve, I'm giving you high praise, short of the number of loading screens. You are bringing back memories of The Orange Box for the PS3 and that's not a good thing.
