I restarted steam at midnight and it said "preloading" and gave a 10 minute time. I quit steam and rebooted my PC and restarted steam and now it says "downloading" and is giving me a 6 minute time.

tl;dr, reboot steam again if it's being slow.

Character creation pro tip there’s a blue tint to the light in creation and things will be brighter paler out in the world. Or at least that’s the case for Xbox.

If you're getting poo poo Steam download speeds, change your download server in Settings > Download.

I went from under 1MB/s to 62MB/s switching to Iceland

This worked for me, went from 4 hours down to 9 minutes.

....how big is this update to play the game? It's telling me I don't have enough space to download it, despite having 50gigs free...

They update by essentially re-copying the entire game, you're gonna need like 60 or so free. Yes I know it's stupid.

Also updated at 10MB/sec on GOG and am playing...see you all the in the cyberverse

Actually you owe me 6! But who's countin?

I did the second steam download but clicking play still shows the "not yet released message" on the steam homepage it is showing 3.5 hours left. I wonder if it gets released based on the timezone of the steam server and not my machine.

Edit: steam is d/ling my 7GB file at 100KB/s lmao But it's also maxing out my ssd so maybe its dependent on the unpacking before it will start really downloading the patch

Went into GeForce now, and the game wants me to sign into my GOG account, even though I bought the game on steam. But I can't log in, via Geforce or directly from GOG's website. I think their servers might be getting hammered or something.

That's not too bad at all. How hard is finding blueprints?

Yeah it was good because you didn't ever have to find one specific thing to build what you wanted. The middle step of the four base building blocks made the system really flexible. You could also recycle useful items that you just didn't want or weren't using, like health packs if you had a bunch. Then you could make more ammo, for example.

From what i remember blueprints were usually easy to find and in fairly logical places. Like, you'd find a blueprint for a new laser weapon in the weapons research lab, that sort of thing.
