First:i have my copy of Rage pc game(2 DVD´s).So i have installed my copy of Steam.
But i am very very confused.I try install my game from dvd disk-thats ok.
but that Steam starts download "patch" for the game.Download speed is 1.4mb/sec and
i have to wait 4 hours! (Almost 20gb patch-i dont think so)
Why steam does not install game from dvd disks?(oh yeah there is 2 disks)
Or am i just old and stupid???
PS Any other methods to install this game??? thank you
your complaining at a 4 hour wait!? that download would take me about 40hours+
the game has installed of the DVD's but its the pre and post release patches that your being made to download. These fix A LOT of the bugs in rage.. and there were a lot.
I brought this point up in an earlier post as my download spead varies from 35kbpsto 280kbps (so your 1.4Mbps is rather impressive now...).
You can download a cracked torrented version of the game, as you own the original version. But without the patches youll be complaining regardless
And my last question:I have tried this method also:
First i shut down Steam and then:
Hit Windows+R key
And write:"C:\program files(x86)\Steam\Steam.exe -install D:"
It starts forced(?)install from DVD disc.So it start install,but then there is
error message:The Steam servers are too busy.... (look pic steam error)
Should i try that forced install offline mode?any other working methods?
And i really dont understand that server error
PS i found that forced install stuff from Steam forum.
thank you
Depending on steam servers i guess
It probally won't take 4 hours ,I had a download that needed 14.6 gb download but steam actually finished it faster then posted
I been use-ing steam for a few years now and never had issues with downlodable content
But look at it this way it is now backed up in the steam files and if you ever need to re-install just have steam redownload it and you won't have to go through install disc like you did before
Also steam could have did it for you with-out the disc but probally would have taken a big chunk of time
I brought Dead Island on disc today and iv'e installed it but I have to wait about 20 hours for an update!
The update is almost complete but it's really anoying!
Lol I really want dead island for the pc as I never finished it on ps3 but you've put me off now! I'd have to wait about 2 weeks with my current 200kbps connection.. Hopefully be back to normal next week

are you serious my dead island installed and updated less then 5 minutes must be the connection ,I would be pissed if it took that long
thats nothing LOOL i bought dragon age orgins ulitmate edition yesterday on steam for the sale was really good and its a 24gb download and i left it downloading last night and it was only half way and put it to download again like 2 hrs ago and says i got 17,661mb downloaded of 24,234.1mb at downloading at a rate of 634.5kb and says around 1hr 30mins left but i think it will be longerand god knows how long a update will take when its finished downloading hahha
And this is why I prefer just buying the physical disk.thats nothing LOOL i bought dragon age orgins ulitmate edition yesterday on steam for the sale was really good and its a 24gb download and i left it downloading last night and it was only half way and put it to download again like 2 hrs ago and says i got 17,661mb downloaded of 24,234.1mb at downloading at a rate of 634.5kb and says around 1hr 30mins left but i think it will be longer
Buying the Disc is good but even though it is a pain in the Butt for the DLCAnd this is why I prefer just buying the physical disk.thats nothing LOOL i bought dragon age orgins ulitmate edition yesterday on steam for the sale was really good and its a 24gb download and i left it downloading last night and it was only half way and put it to download again like 2 hrs ago and says i got 17,661mb downloaded of 24,234.1mb at downloading at a rate of 634.5kb and says around 1hr 30mins left but i think it will be longer
Steam saves your profiles on there data base so when you re build or re install windows just download steam reinstall and your account is right back but you have to download the files again but it shouldn't take as long vs the first time
