Sorted! Installing now

just boot it then it installs, i was doing it the manual way duh 7876mb of install

ALSO FOLKS ROCKSTAR HAVE ADVISED AGAINST INSTALLING THE PLAY DISC!!!!

I'm not convinced they have, when asked if they recommend installing it they've said they don't. If asked if they reccomend putting mustard on the disk they would probably say they don't reccomend that either. When rockstar officially reccomend something it suddenly worries consumers. 8GB is already a pretty big install, if they then went on to recommend 16GB install it might panic a lot of customers into purchasing unesecary HDD space when really they only need the recomended 8. THat's a bit of a ramble but I think it makes sense the point I'm making.

Will Tesco be 'walk-in' and pickup? Anyone think this is possible?

Or are they pre-orders only?

Same with GAME tbh, im happy to drive around all night to find one

Before anyone asks, yes I have a pre-order in with GMG on the punt that the game would come today ie this morning, it didnt and now I cant risk the postie not having it tomorrow either!

Isnt it annoying for anyone else that the app lets you register personalised plates but no one with an android phone can do that yet so there's a chance the one you want will already be taken by some IOS guy lol.

You can't risk it? What exactly would happen?

Drake5 · 16 Sep 2013 at 18:38

RockStar are not recommending to install the play disc. People are saying it can cause things like slow loading terrains etc.

I just called as wanting a back up in case shopto doesn't deliver tomorrow and they said it's no pre order but a first come first served basis (Tesco, Leicester).

muggs · 16 Sep 2013 at 18:42

Mull3t · 16 Sep 2013 at 18:44

Never in my life of gaming been to a midnight launch, at a supermarket is it usually bad? (Long lines etc)? Going to show up about 11:30...

Droolinggimp · 16 Sep 2013 at 18:45

At supermarkets do they let you buy more than one copy?

Edit: reason is that I have been asked to get one fro a friend even though hes got it on pre order

DAIR · 16 Sep 2013 at 18:46

Still no game yet. It had better arrive tomorrow or I'm going to go crazy.......

Haha. Always used Shopto, and will do still BUT I do believe they made up they were all dispatched Saturday else at least one person in the UK would have received something.
But hey, getting a day before is a bonus! So now it is down to Royal Mail!

Andr3w · 16 Sep 2013 at 18:49

No game today, sad panda

I have had a few drinks trying to get to sleep for the session early in morning but its not happening and I have watched the newest episode of breaking bad.. that passed 45 mins. Dog walked, house tidied. Guess all thats left is to cook tea.. but that will take 40 mins.. So what to do for 4 hours..?
