How many days will it take to download GTA V after release?

So this is my second question ever on the forums and the first one was if I could run GTA v or no. so first off. I wanna say that my internet is REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY slow. it is 1mb = 100kb download speed. the internet company I am in is offering a feature where you use your mobile credit to increase your internet speed for a limited time to 4mb = 400kb. so If I had the 4mb speed. how many days will it take too?

If you have 4Mbps internet download speed, it should take you half an hour to download 1GB file,which mean you can download 2GB files in 1 hour.

GTAV PC version is 65GB, it should take you roughly 32.5 hours

The game is still not available for pre-download, and will not be before March (most probably).

Didn't you guys say it is available for pre-load? doesn't pre-load means you will download the game but won't be able to play it before march?

When you're downloading, does it tell you 400KB/s or 50KB/s?

 

I'm pretty sure you might be mistaking the difference between a bit and a Byte.

 

Edit: Even better, go to SpeedTest.net and post a picture of the result.

Pre-loading will be made avaiable close to the actual release.

No-one said that. That's indeed the definition of pre-loading, but pre-load are often available 2-3 days before the game's release.

GTAV PC is not even gold yet (ready for retail release). Do not expect the pre-load to be available before March 20.

However, it will be enough time for everyone to dload a game and play ON 24th march :) Probably one or two weeks before lauch day they will "open" dload for us. Game will be encrypted untill 24th march. Simple as that.

i have 250kB/s download speed and capped bandwidth at 6GB A month ( I know :D but it's the fastest and most expensive internet in our country :D, I know :) )

traffic is free between 1a.m and 7a.m so it should take me around 10 days to finish it :D

People are assuming that steam will release all bandwith for all users.... they still need to provide service for all users... so I doubt they will release more than 5MB/s for each person.

 

This. Steam downloads are always capped at 5MB/s for me.

 

65 GB at 5MB/s would take a little over 3 hours and 45 minutes. Although 65 GB is the space the installation takes, I expect the download to be smaller.

If Steam doesn't completely muck up with the massive load and my ISP also won't, I'll be looking at around 5 hours.

Steam provides up to 3 Tbp/s everyday, I'm pretty sure there'll be enough "speed" for everyone.

The pre-load would begin a few days before release, so i will download it on a first day of pre-load and the next day i should have the game installed (9 Mbit/s).

I'm quite sure there will be throttling once V releases, the load it's going to cause is inimaginable.
