Blidly Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Hey guys a quick question about steam: I buy all games in disk format and i was wondering in future iterations is it worth downloading from steam (as iam registered and key code'd with steam on this one ) if it takes a long time to download as i dont know that much about speed and other things, i jsut did a speedtest on speedtest.net and my results were Ping - 15 m/s D/L speed - 10.70 mps U/L speed - 0.88 mps Cheers if you can shed any light for me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWaRFeGa Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Well worth doing. Bear this in mind - if you pre-order through Steam, you download 99% of the game the day before official release. Then on the day of release, you simply download the final 1%. Simples. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats cool and pretty useful, though for example i got FM 11 in jan and would have to download it all in one big chunk , and thats what i wondering if my internet connection thingy ( as you can tell im a technolodgical genius) would be able to download this relatively quickly Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
