Same on the GMG facebook page. I could understand if it was release day, but it's pre-load day.

**Although I am tempted to buy another key from Steam, I know that Steam maxes out my connection and with 152mb VM connection 66GB should only take around 30mins. Then sell my GMNG key with the pre-order bonus on release day.

Decisions.

Yes, exactly. After preloading it's just going to sit there for a week anyway.

Yeah if you have the cash I would go with steam. I have trust in their servers.

Did Rockstar say what time, or was that somebody else?
I've only seen Rockstar say the date.

All I know is it's due today. That could be anytime between now and midnight.

Also, people getting annoyed about light hearted remarks about not having the pre order download yet. Go out and get laid cause seriously, you need it.

As it's most likely going to happen during US working hours it'll be this afternoon/early evening UK time such as 6PM when steam flips over.

I don't know why people pre order, surely they can wait a week and see how it is first?

Well for me I pre-ordered a few months ago. First, cause I love GTA, and second of all I needed to know I had it because anything can happened before launch.
It was a very good decision as there is no way I could afford it now, maybe not even for another 2 months yet.

Now imagine how awful it would be if people were going 'WOW, Incredible!, Rockstar is made up of Gods, THis game is ******* awesome! etc..
You'd be upset, because you don't have the game, you can't get the game and people are having fun while you sulk.

So pre-ordering GTA V was such a good decision for me, and whatever happens I will not regret it

And it will NOT run like GTA IV launch, I think 90% of us are fairly confident on that

I pre-ordered back in January as I'd sold a ton of guff over christmas so my steam wallet was up at £65, meant it was "in the bag" and I wouldn't blow the cash on daft games for my daughter..

Although I've since more or less done that anyway lol

Why on earth do you all care about the exact time the preload starts? You can't play it for a week anyway!

Just incase you were tempted by the 780ti still Fox - Gibbo has said they have been delayed.

Wah007 · 7 Apr 2015 at 11:43

People can't wait to have the game files on their computer so they can get excited over them.

LoadsaMoney · 7 Apr 2015 at 11:53

Gah, not started yet

Excellent, I can delay my decision until the GTA benchmarks appear

Keyboards'Fear · 7 Apr 2015 at 11:56

I wonder how many people are going to try decrypt the files once downloaded lol

Pretty sure it'll be in the 10s of thousands, if not 100s of thousands

Why are people getting so irate about having to download so much data? You had the choice to buy a retail copy to lessen the burden on your internet connection and chose not to! Not anyone elses fault but those who chose to buy online instead.
