[QUOTE=jmazouri;47475140]Retail copy is just going to run through steam anyway. If you want the map, and don't mind potentially paying extra for taxes and such, then go with the retail copy. You don't even need to use the discs.[/QUOTE]
it can also possibly only activate through social club, like all the cd-keys that you can purchase online atm
I have the map from my Xbone copy, so now I'm just waiting for Steam to say it's ready to download.
nuuvem has an activation code for social club on sale for 26€ if you take the time to fuck around with proxies

Oh, damn. Didn't know they were going with their own platform.

That's also how it is with GTA4 and MP3. There are no Steam keys as far as I know.
Pre loads are here!

I just hope there isn't some massive day 1 patch.
God dammit I could preload this game if I didn't have a wifi hotspot for an internet connection.
20mbps download speed is kinda sad when you have a data cap.
Over the span of 2 minutes I've downloaded 160MB/59GB
Well, time to piss off everyone in my household and get this party started.
[QUOTE=DaMastez;47475403]I just hope there isn't some massive day 1 patch.[/QUOTE]
We have to bear in mind what will probably happen on day 1
Day 1
Release
Steam Crash
Rockstar Social club will not recognize you for some reason so you will have to make another account
GTA Servers will crash
Rockstar will release patch (around 2 gigs)
Day 2
Everyone will download patch
Steam Crash Take 2
Will have to sign back into new rockstar account you created yesterday you will forget password and try again...
Game will start
Join first online game
Lag will ensue so you decide to leave online play "for now"
Day 3
Playable.
[QUOTE=DaMastez;47475403]I just hope there isn't some massive day 1 patch.[/QUOTE]
There almost certainly will be. It's standard affair for games nowadays.
Charlotte servers are giving me 1-2 MB/s, I usually get around 5

Hey! You take your 20mbs and be grateful!

It would likely be part of the decryption payload anyway.
100kb download speed, let's do this.
Houston severs seem stable for the most part.

Fuck You.
Over the course of five minutes, I've managed to get nothing and time out. Yay!
The annoying thing is I know that my physical copy of GTA V will arrive around a week after the steam release, if I remember correctly how crappy Tesco's delivery time is.
Started my preload, only 70 hours to go!
"Connection time out"
steam pls
Ok it's working now, ETA 1 day 12 hours ;_;. oh well I keep my computer on and we have a week to download.
