Well the DLC is not available for purchase on Steam, so its either via GFWL or included with the pc version or not there at all.

 

[morningbus]

Ridiculously big. Why the fuck wasn't this preloadable?

As WB said in a press release earlier, "Because fuck you - that's why."

 

[LiquidMetal14]

2 hours and 15 mins remaining CANT WAIT!

You don't say!

 

[Nelo Ice]

You don't say!

Exactly what I was goin for lol.

2.8MB/S, 1H30M left.

STILL NOT SOON ENOUGH.

 

[BoobPhysics101]

3.1 MB/s, 12% done... Steam isn't even maxing out my connection...

 

[MasterShotgun]

Already at 25%. GO BATMAN GO.

 

[scitek]

Roommate comes home at 12 and starts playing WoW. Fuckin' MMOs.

 

[krameriffic]

3.1 MB/s, 12% done... Steam isn't even maxing out my connection...

Yeah I'm getting about 2.6 MB/s. Meanwhile I downloaded the SWTOR beta client earlier at 3.5MB/s. Steam never maxes my connection, but I'm honestly surprised it's even doing this well.

Frustrating because sometimes I can hit a solid 4.0 MB/s. Steam has done it before, too!

Also, I only live like 40 mins from it if it's downloading from the LA server, so that helps. I gotta get this downloaded before the Steam servers go nuts from all the Arkham City downloads.

Again, fuck Warner Bros for no preloading. Losers.

 

[Chesskid1]

damn, was hoping i wouldnt have to run the GFWL stuff but looks like you will cause of the CD KEY included. no biggy though, will be gettin two achievement popups at once, that will be interesting. never had that before.

What server are you connected to? I never get above 2.0 MB per second on Steam.

 

[unpurposed]

Downloading at 10MB/s here. Can't wait to play.

ATI users, ATI came out with 11.1a drivers today that claim to improve single-gpu performance in Arkham City for DX11 stuff. Might be good to try out.

What server are you on????

 

[spk]

Why is this 17gb. Why.

 

[hlhbk]

Also I only see version 11 for the ATI drivers, can you post the link for the 11a drivers?

A single 4850, going to be running DX9 ... probably won't need this.

UE3 or not I'd be surprised if my card could max out DX9 (not counting SSAO).

[hlhbk]

Thanks for the drivers. Why doesn't anyone want to share the servers they are on?

 

[MasterShotgun]

*facepalm*

I shouldn't have tried to change servers to squeeze out a better download time.

1) When I went to resume downloading, it tried to decrypt the files even though it wasn't even 50% done. It got hung up at 2%, so I just deleted the data and restarted the download.

2) Different servers didn't help this time.

I won't be doing that in the future.

 

[dream]

I, uh, ordered an nvidia card just for this game (don't ask). Do the download codes come in the box or should I be expecting an email from the store I ordered from?

 

[Jtrizzy]

where does it tell you the time remaining to dl?

 

[TheExodu5]

Why is the came called "Batman: Arkham City™ PC"

My EVGA 580GTX had the code in the box with the GPU.

In the downloads tab/area

Pretty sure the code is in the box. I bought one of the codes, and the guy emailed me a picture of what looks like a voucher. Then you enter that code on the Nvidia site, which gives you the Steam code.

 

[dream]

Thanks, I kind of figured it would come in the box but I was just hoping to get a jump on the ~18 gig download.

 

[Recon]

Mine didnt come in the box, amazon sent me a code that i had to enter on the nvidia website.

 

[SteveO409]

Sigh 5 hours to download 16 gigs...crappy time warner internet

 

[BoobPhysics101]

Los Angeles. Always gets a solid 3+ MB/s.

 

[Hero_of_the_Day]

How the fuck are you guys getting such good connections? Mine is at like 700Kbs at best. Nowhere near maxing my connection. Not that it matters. Going to be pretty busy until Thanksgiving evening. But, damn.

 

[Jtrizzy]

not sure if that's a voucher or an email...

I don't want hear it lol. I am barely getting 1 mb/s. I've got 8 hours to go. It's free, but I'm sharing it, and the router is way away from my pc.

That's the voucher.

 

[TheExodu5]

So, I just used the trade feature to give Batman to a friend...but he says it's not in his list. When he goes to his gifts list, it appears there so he can gift the game, but not redeem it. Weird.

 

[L00P]

fuuuuuu I won't be able to play until about 1 AM pst

There's a trade feature in Steam? Or is this from GMG?

 

[Hero_of_the_Day]

That is the worst covering of a code ever. Hope whomever owns that has already redeemed it.

 

[Derrick01]

downloading at my normal speed but I won't be able to play until tomorrow. Restless night here I come!

You are, who I thought you were!

"And I let you off the hook!"

 

[inky]

Meh, still 2 hours to go, I should go to sleep.

 

[Jtrizzy]

That was an epic press conference. Right up there with Playoffs?!?!?!?!?! and We play to win the game.

 

[MasterShotgun]

Finished downloading. AW YEAH!

Now to install DirectX for the 100th time.

 

[BoobPhysics101]

It's done! See ya all soon. Will post benchmarks/thoughts soon.

 

[MightyKAC]

Still region locked here in Japan

 

[Jtrizzy]

looking forward to it.

 

[MasterShotgun]

Well this sucks. The game has crashed twice on me. I haven't gotten to start a new file yet. ARGH!

 

[Bluth54]

6 hours and 38 minutes to go on my 5 Mbps connection.

Fuck you for not having a preload WB.
