    My preload started but on my UPC 240mb it's going at between 200KB/sec and 3 or 4MB/sec :confused:

    ah I don't suppose it matters a great deal at the moment but it is great to have the preload and not to be having to wait 8 hours (at present) to play the game if it was next week!

    slow hard-drive ? I'm getting 26.4 MB/S for current 28.0 MB/S for peak. Steam have rolled out plenty of capacity for this.

    I still have not got my key yet. So cannot preload. I suppose that is what I get for using a cheap key site.

    You probably won't get it till the day of release if you bought it from G2play or the likes.

    Bought my key on some site called game dragons or something, probably a bit dodge, not too sure. Anyway, can I register that with steam? Or will I always have to play GTAV through a separate shortcut.

    Just a reminder to everyone, as per the charter.

    Discussion about where or how to get leaked/pirated copies of the game will be actioned with a ban and posts deleted.

    Spare a thought for us country folk. Currently maxing out my line at a whopping 200 - 300 kbps. Almost 72 hours to download.

    Depends on what the key that you bought is for. If it's a Steam key, you should be able to register it with Steam. You can also get a key for the Rockstar Warehouse which I imagine is a standalone version not requiring Steam.
    Keep in mind, you can always add it to Steam later as a "non-Steam game".

    Who says I'm not country* :pac: I was up in the parents place in Sligo over the weekend, they have 3G hotspot modem. It was like traveling back in time to see how the web used to be.

    Got my key from Nuuvem (Rockstar key) for 29 euro. Left it preloading last night and all downloaded this morn :) . It was going less than 200kb/s last night, then jumped to 4.5mb/s so left it finish. Was worried social club would take a week to finish the download.

    Noticed anthing off with Nuuvem? Thinking of going that route myself. You were able to register your key without any issues? Did you ned a VPN to buy or register, or both?

    No discussion of illegal game copying including torrents

    @mods It's not an illegal pirated or leaked copy, this is how CJS CDKeys are distributing the game. I preordered and paid for the game like everybody else.

    No, they haven't. Valve regularly make use of third party CDNs as their own capacity isn't enough for any release of note, GTAV being no exception.

    The torrent is legit, its how CJS are distributing the game due to its huge size.

    Yeah, my version seemed to use the rockstar warehouse. I thought I was buying the steam one.

    Cheapest I could find it, also includes the bonus. Nuuvem will have a notice on any products that has regional restrictions either does Rockstar restrict keys.

    This is the exact same files from Rockstars preload, just download it from there if you buy the non-steam version as Rockstars downloader is pretty random speeds.
