I love my school’s ethernet. Oh, I’m also updating a pair of Steam games and watching Roadkill. UPDATE: Now crusing along in the high 400Mb/s range UPDATE 2: Fully installed at 9:40. 95GB in 50 minutes is pretty good.

So do you have to own it digitally to do the pre-download?

Because my disk is coming in next week.

Yes. Owning it digitally also means that I get it on both PC and Xbox one with shared saves across the two.

I’m a little terrified of the download size of this game. But having never owned an Xbox, I’m pumped to finally have forza.

95GB makes it by far the biggest game I own. It’s only 65GB on Xbox.

And I thought my 85 mbps was good.... what’s your GT ? I’m downloading the ultimate edition right now too. Dark Slayer6368 if you want another drive tar to race against.

That’s about what I get from the shitty wifi here. The wired connection screams though.

Damn. Are you maxing out 802.11ac or do you have a 10GbE interface?

I kid you not, there have been times when my school internet has been 1Mb/s. That’s what $65k a year gets you.

Awesome. Can’t wait to pick up my copy tomorrow. Scorched83 is my handle. I don’t have a mic at the moment but will get one if I end up playing online more.

Yikes. There goes a tenth of my hard disk space!

I knew it was cross-platform I just didn’t know about downloading. Oh well.... Guess I’ll be anxiously awaiting the postman next week.

I believe my bottleneck is either the D-Link Gigabit switch I use to connect my PC, Xbox, and Nintendo switch into one of the 2 ports in my dorm or the gigabit ehternet to USB 3.0 adapter I use on my laptop. Don’t know what the network is rated at but it tests at 900+ down and 800+ up.

Kinja'd!!!

The wifi here is shit by the wired connection screams.

It would be 1/5 of my internal drive but luckily it let me put it on my external 6TB drive.

Oh, it’s 400Mbit. I thought it was 400MB. Drive-by commenting from my phone.

That’s quite the pipe. When I was in college we had like a T3 for the entire campus.

Very impressive. My school’s WiFi downloaded the demo in about 20 minutes. It would have taken 2 days at home.

Also, do you get day one pack with the ultimate edition or is that just for people there day one?

TheTurbochargedSquirrel > Daily Drives a Dragon - One Last Lap
09/28/2017 at 22:03

I believe you get the day one pack with any pre order.

Daily Drives a Dragon - One Last Lap > TheTurbochargedSquirrel
09/28/2017 at 22:05

Including pre-order in disk form? From a place that’s not them?

TheTurbochargedSquirrel > Daily Drives a Dragon - One Last Lap
09/28/2017 at 22:08

It appears the day one pack is only included in the digital versions and the physical version of the Ultimate Edition.

Yeah maybe I should have googled it.

Apparently it’s yet more Fast and Furious. Sigh. I guess I support it because it keeps the lights on for T10.

Did you do the time thing where you switch the date

TheTurbochargedSquirrel > Mini Guy- Now has a 4Runner
09/28/2017 at 22:32

What time thing?

Mini Guy- Now has a 4Runner > TheTurbochargedSquirrel
09/28/2017 at 22:52

When you go into the settings and switch the time to New Zealand because they get it before we ‘muricans

TheTurbochargedSquirrel > Mini Guy- Now has a 4Runner
09/28/2017 at 23:24

I think it unlocks at 12 est no matter where you are in the world.

Oh. The reason I asked was because I heard of a destiny 2 glitch where you could download the game if you set your time to New Zealand time. But I think Microsoft fixed that
