PCars Steam Pre-Loading Option for PC Now Live

[Xiamoto]

I just started pre-loading PCars from Steam right now....time 3:18PM CST. I'm a United States based Customer. BRING IT ON:tup:

Thanks for the heads-up. Maybe the official Project CARS website should announce pre-loading is now available...because it's more convenient when you have the game ready at the time of official launch - and downloading 15 gigabytes of data could take a while for even someone who has 25 megabits of broadband Internet!

(Still at school though.)

I think it has already been mentioned though in the general Project CARS thread:

Currently preloading Project CARS! The hype is officially real!!!!

Set mine off this morning, had an estimated time of 26 mins to download so not bad at all. I remember when it would take all night to download an mp3 song!

I downloaded mine a few hours ago, didn't really pay attention to how long it took. I did notice that it was pretty steady at 6.1 -6.2 MB/s on the download.

It seems I just simply cannot wait for Project CARS to come into my driveway. But I have to wait until late Wednesday night/early Thursday morning to arrive...

I was racking up as much as three megabyes per second (that's how much you get for a 25-megabit connection, which is still no slouch, and still fine for most uses today, especially when that's pretty much the minimum in the US' new "broadband" definition), but almost took me three hours since I was tired coming back home from school and kinda forgot the sleep mode was still on despite Project CARS pre-loading...

Thursday simply cannot come soon enough.

Thanks guys, this saves a half hour of time come Wednesday night/Thursday morning.

Maybe the majority of you will save 30 minutes for me it's about 12 hours+ so in my case I'm greatly thankful with SMS

Anyone know when the PS store offers this pre-load?

Done and done. Waiting for unlock. Will get home from work and it will be ready. Also getting this on ps4 so I can race some friends. Just hope they are going to offer either the LE cars as dlc or going to offer the digital for us psn accounts to buy before the 12th so we don't have to go through all that crap about creating a uk account to get it. Either way, going to see how my new computer I built will handle pcars. The last time I was this excited about a racing game was GT2.
