Ranting about valve but supports EA and Ubisoft? Also there is a setting in Windows that prevents it, but it can be dissables from the advanced settings.īut as I said, other programs execute installations much faster. Last edited by RavagerOfDreams 16 Apr, am. This is why things like EA and Ubisoft exist. IMHO, this really speaks to the lack of technical competence at Valve's decision making level.
#STEAM TAKING FOREVER INSTALL#
When I install a game directly from disc, it just installs. Why the heck does Steam take so freaking long to preallocate space on hard drives? Other programs do this in a few seconds.

My internet connection not download speed is 1 gigabyte per second. You can always let stuff download over night. Physical location and internet land are totally different But yes, it's probably steam being slow. I guess steam just downloads games really slowly? It may not be your internet, it depends on A LOT of things, how many people are using the server, who is actually getting priority, what time you're downloading at, how long it's been since the server was restarted, how far the server is from you in internet land, etc. So it's just my internet? It's weird because my internet is not slow at all.

New game releases for example will bog them down pretty bad. Edit: The biggest factors are going to be your internet speed, and how bogged down Valves servers are.

And usually my computer is pretty darn fast. I knowright? Portal and Portal 2 took 45 hours to install. I compared my download speed to that of my friends and his speed was way better Rollback Post to Revision RollBack. My computer is still fairly new, but for some reason games take forever to download. Ok, so steam is a great program and all but when you're downloading a game it takes forever.
