***Official GTAV PC Thread*** [Important warning updated in the OP]

So having pre loaded on to a 120gb hd this isnt going to work nothing popped up yet though

Let me know, I'm still copying off the drive.

 

[Gerard]

Can't even get the 50mb one done, 'Connection to Server lost'.

It's been sat preloaded for 4 days, why wait until now for this rubbish?

Because it would break the release trend of higly anticipated games that are digitally downloaded.

 

[kablooey]

I can't believe all the data has gone after restarting steam :S 59GB gone showing Install button

My steam said that to but it was still there, it's a bit flaky.

 

[JL94x4]

So it delays when the game is pirated by a few days?

Fixed.

 

[Keyboards'Fear]

Everyone must write down the time they got into the game, for the history books! Skiddley was 00:15

 

[[TW]Fox]

Because otherwise everyone would have been playing it since preload started. They leave out some necessary files for a reason.

You don't need to leave out 400mb of stuff though surely.

 

[linwelin]

nooooooooooooooooooooooooo it failed!!!! have to redownload it again

 

[stulid]

40 secs left to get ready.

SSD FTW!!

This post will be lost inside the thread but

Just remember chaps, naughty worded videos/images will be delete by the mods and you may get suspended.

Don't take the risk!

 

[PsychoPigeon]

for the people downloading the 50mb - you have at least 40 min install time afterwards

 

[smelly_legend]

Steam copy updated quickly, is currently pre-allocating, which by looks of it is decrypting the files..

80% of the way there. Free disk space dissapeared which was expected. Those with small SSD's might struggle.

I had to remove 2 games whilst i t was doing it!

 

[NvidiaDan]

So what can I do guys... delete and start downloading from scratch?

 

[StrongSad]

This is not good...

the unpacking is taking up a lot of free space

 

[Gerard]

Installing now

 

[Ayahuasca]

Fixed.

Nope.

 

[TaKeN]

I think the Rockstar Servers have died.

 

[Skiddley]

First time setup taking forever

 

[JakePNEFC]

nooooooooooooooooooooooooo it failed!!!! have to redownload it again

 

[dreigns]

Ah well I'll DL the Nvidia GTA V driver now while I'm waiting for steam to do something

thanks i'll get this while I wait

Yeah I was just thinking about the 50mb update, who knows what the second update is for and why they couldn't let you preload that too,
