CNC Tiberian Dawn Remastered

Games like Doom gave unique skins and stuff for pre-purchasing the game and many other games, but remastered I see nothing on the front page saying pre-purchase gives anything... so is there any bonuses? Or can I just wait 2 days and buy it without missing out on anything, anyone know?

No benefits apart from being able to preload the game.

I was able to pre-load the game on June 1st, when my Steam Key came in.

Who needs preloading anyway with a 500Mbit/s line?

*jealously intensifies*

My download 1.5hrs, your's 1.5mins

intensifies massively

There's no way you live in the UK and have a 1.5 hour download time.

That's something for 3rd world countries or the US to suffer through.

You'd be surprised. The UK is dogshit for internet. I wouldn't be surprised if we're one of the slowest countries in Europe.

E:- Just checked, really not great. To be behind the US in internet speed is embarrassing.

That chart is massively outdated though. It is avg speed in 2017. Internet providers in the Netherlands greatly improved their downloadspeed over the years. One of the bigger providers here even offers 1Gbit now. Can only imagine other countries had the same trend.

There is no way you're behind the US at this point.

Back in 2017 half the country didn't have reliable internet and some didn't have access lines at all.

Australia decided to go backwards and use old copper lines in a Fibre to the Node style system. Only a handful of people have Fibre to the premises or curb.

And while other countries have been improving the UK has done nothing, I'd wager a more up to date chart would prove my point about UK having poopoo internet in comparison to Europe even more

It's an absolute nightmare atm, I wasn't getting anymore then 3.5MB/s download on the remaster the other day

I have to restart the line every now and then. We've been in contact with the ISP many times, probably 20 or more. The speed is fine then it slows down until we struggle to even get 1Mbps down/up. Restarting router doesn't fix, however, restarting the dsl line (yes we're on dsl ) and our speeds shoot right back up. Either they're throttling the line or it's old and shit.

So now we just reset the line 1-2 times a week before it deteriorates... They can be fucked if they think we're going to pay fibre installation fees for a house we only rent

Alright, I stand corrected, apparently your internet speed is bad. Should have had Netput download it for you.

He could have downloaded it to a USB and sent it in the mail and I may have had it faster

You can always make that requests when you get an update to download.

With amazon same day delivery I could just purchase and send him USB sticks and PM him what I need downloading.


Assuming he's cleaned out his PMs by now

I have it downloaded but it's still telling me I can't play because it's not released yet
