Ah, the full install is under 12GB.
So the reason for the load times is that it's trying to stream content, and clearly they're overloaded. On top of that, if any authentication is happening in the US, that's not going to help as they come online.
I'll go fly my F18c a bit...

Was stuck at 97%, read that MS have suggested restarting, so have just done so and it's started going through the entire process again, if it sticks at 97% again I'll leave it until tomorrow. Hopefully Stalker will be less problematic tomorrow evening.
/Edit: Nope stuck at 97% again, hopefully MS will have resolved the issue by tomorrow.

I'm not even going to bother trying today.
Very wise decision. Think I'm going to quit for tonight too.

This is very disappointing
Glad I'm at work now.
I'll start it off again in the morning and leave it running whilst I sleep.
Doesn't bode well for the scenery being streamed from the servers.

Straight up ******* abysmal launch. Unforgivable for such a big studio to tank a game launch like this these days.
Its getting review bombed on Steam as we speak "overwhelmingly negative".

Clearly you have never experienced an MMO launch, this is literally a mickey mouse issue compared to some launches.
Steam clowns posting negative reviews and they havent even played the game.

Somewhat glad I never bothered pre-ordering now.
Abysmal, Microsoft, abysmal.

Not recently. I tend to stay away from MMO's in general these days.
Steam review bombing is an effective way of showing discontent. Its bad that it has to be done that way. However, thats the risk you run if you cant release a game properly.

I haven't been able to get excited for it at all. 2020 was a mess and it seems they've learnt nothing.
Microsoft/Asobo at fault entirely, it's not like they are a little tin pot developer struggling with unexpected demand, can't disagree with people leaving negative reviews for being unable to play a game they paid for.
