From a UK perspective, where we have a lockdown in place, when you think about the amount of streaming, Zooming and gaming that's going on, not to mention release of new AC game today which will be a significantly larger download, I can't see FM downloads being more than a drop in the ocean of the available/used bandwidth. But Still, Gaffer Miles said it won't be available for download "during working-hours" because of this. No hope here for a daytime-release. Link to post Share on other sites

tyro 282 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 As per past experience and general understanding and under the law of speculation, there has to be a quorum of SI staff online before it goes live. There are very complex calculations to determine the exact amount of SI staff that has to be online before it happens. It might take me a couple of hours or days to finalize those. I will keep you posted. Link to post Share on other sites

No hope here for a daytime-release. Sure, and I'm not disputing he said it - or for that matter that he most likely knows better than I do (although I do work in IT industry). Just that I don't immediately understand the potential for it to impact significantly on bandwidth. Edited November 10, 2020 by Pompey1978 Link to post Share on other sites

MatthewS17 438 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 (edited) So they still haven't uploaded the depots?

DerMef 5 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 If we're going to speculate about steamdb stuff then I think this is the most promising sign: During the last few days, updates to the steam app have been made from 07:41 UTC all the way up to 02:30 UTC. That seem to have been the work hours during this crunch period. Yet, yesterday, the final update was on 19:18:37 UTC and there has been no update so far. Could easily be the case that the final beta candidate was pushed yesterday, left up for some stability testing over night and is now ready to release. 🤔 Link to post Share on other sites
