My assumption is that it is "downloading" from the disc, though it took an hour and 15 minutes from when I put the disc in, to when I started playing. Awards

Something about uncompressing the files on the disk. Ruthless was prompted for the 2nd disk. Dont give up yet. LOL Awards

After the 11.1gig download there should be a 472MB patch and a display driver upgrade comment. BTW-They released another driver after the beta completed for Geforce, that is supposed to improve the speed and performance of many video cards, 11% for the 560ti as an example. Make sure you grab that, the game won't require you to get it. Sorry it's giving you some pain in the butt trouble, hope it gets all ironed out for you. Good luck Jon

Thats the price to pay to live in the tropics, have average connextion, but wtf, the game is br$eautiful I have no complaints, I was just sharing how long it took. I felt like 40min was pretty fast for the size of the files. But 21hrs? You have my respect for having to wait that long and still so positive about it, shows a good attitude Tropics?
