Grand Theft Auto Series Megathread V4 - 3 and 1/2 Years in the Making: GTA V PC - Games

[QUOTE=RocketRacer;47510275]Still considering getting it, but the download will take a long while. I'm not too hyped for the release date because I'm playing GW2 almost non-stop every day, so I'm focused on that, but that's also the problem - how will I download a 60GB file with 1-2MB/s internet while unable to play an MMO.[/QUOTE] Download it overnight or set a bandwidth cap on the download and do both?

7 dvds yet retail still seems less of a hassle. And is 10 eur cheaper here to boot :v:

So do I need to have 60GB spare for when Steam needs to decrypt the game?

I'm sure someone asked this already like a trillion times but is there a way to get a cheaper GTA V on Steam? Edit: I guess not? My friend keeps annoying me with "can u ask facepunch pls?" so atleast that's solved.

[QUOTE=Shotz;47510331]So do I need to have 60GB spare for when Steam needs to decrypt the game?[/QUOTE] The game isn't 120 GB so I don't see why it would.

[QUOTE=Xubs;47510300]It says Play for me on the download page. It just does what the Preload button does.

Holy shit I can't believe how close it is. Tomorrow at midnight! Join the steam group guys, it's where I'll be putting up our own custom events and tournaments (I like hosting tournaments). Details will be posted tonight. [url]http://steamcommunity.com/groups/gta5fp[/url]

[QUOTE=Shotz;47510331]So do I need to have 60GB spare for when Steam needs to decrypt the game?[/QUOTE] I'm really hoping that Rockstar/Steam found another method to decrypt the game rather than totally unpacking it. Then again, you never know.

[QUOTE=Scratch.;47510042]If you're running the game from a version that isn't the installer, do enjoy uninstalling :v:[/QUOTE] Explain please.

-snip nevermind?-

[QUOTE=DvD463;47510370]-snip nevermind?-[/QUOTE] That torrent link in your bookmark bar.

god it feels so good to be so close to release that there's no way they can delay it again

[QUOTE=Agent Fedora;47510395]god it feels so good to be so close to release that there's no way they can delay it again[/QUOTE] They actually delayed the game so much it went into the negative, that's why its the 13th in some places

[QUOTE=Scratch.;47510042]If you're running the game from a version that isn't the installer, do enjoy uninstalling :v:[/QUOTE] You think the files are encrypted on a user by user basis? Then the SC installer wouldn't mark the files downloaded from other sources as "ok"

It's funny, before I bought the game I never thought about it. I could've easily waited an extra week, i'd be patient. Now that I have it preloaded, with the shortcut on my desktop, I just can't do anything else. Everything is GTA V now.

Damnit, this is bullshit, 10 hours and 2 gigs downloaded. Fucking great, now I am going to miss out on launch.

[QUOTE=Beacon;47510415]just use a torrent to be honest[/QUOTE] I have been, 10 hours and 2 gigs.

[QUOTE=Chains!;47510379]That torrent link in your bookmark bar.[/QUOTE] Yeah, I'm checking the insane amount of seeds/peers or whatever it's called.. I can't even run the game so I'm innocent. :v:

[QUOTE=Xonax;47510362]Explain please.[/QUOTE] The game puts shit into your computer like most programs, MyDocuments/Grand theft etc. Regestry if needbe, dll files If you don't have the uninstaller, you have to clear it manually [t]http://www.7proxies.pw/a/8soc[/t]

[QUOTE=Xonax;47510424]I have been, 10 hours and 2 gigs.[/QUOTE] ah, so your internet is just unfortunately slow? I know those feels, most of my life was spent with about 100kbps download

I wonder, can i use a torrent to get the files and then tell the RSC that i already have them ?

[QUOTE=NassimO PotatO;47510471]I wonder, can i use a torrent to get the files and then tell the RSC that i already have them ?[/QUOTE] yeah, you put them in the folder and it should detect them

I like how if you try doing a capture/lts/tennis/deathmatch. Everyone just gives up 20 seconds into the match because they cannot be bothered to try and want to finish it as soon as possible to get the daily objective done. I've done about 10-15 captures in the last week, and each one no one tries.

[QUOTE=Xonax;47510424]I have been, 10 hours and 2 gigs.[/QUOTE] Why'd you start downloading so late?

[QUOTE=Flumbooze;47510494]Why'd you start downloading so late?[/QUOTE] The key didn't get to me till Yesterday and downloading the 157 MB exe took me 12 hours since it was from Rockstars server, then I had to download the 50MB update.

Mmm just bought it and preloading now. My computer is not ready for this.

Thank god halo online happened, I needed something to distract me

[QUOTE=ClarkWasHere;47510503]It's this weird psychology thing, how it's so tantalizingly close yet so far away, you just can't help but try to open the launcher over and over again.[/QUOTE] It's like when my dog wakes up in the morning, yawns, starts pacing up and down in the living room after a while, but is otherwise calm. As soon as I start putting my clothes on, she starts to get excited, and by the time I'm tying my shoes and grabbing her collar to put it on her, she's basically a nervous wreck.
