StaceyPowers Posted February 2, 2019 Posted February 2, 2019 Just a silly random question. What is the longest time you remember waiting for a game to download to your console? Did you regret not just buying a physical disc?
kingpotato Posted February 2, 2019 Posted February 2, 2019 COD blackops 4 Black out Trial, the damn thing was 55 GB just for a week trial of the battle royal mode. But it was free to play for a week.
killamch89 Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 In the case of my PC, It was Grand Theft Auto V which is 60GB even before the various updates and it took me about 3 and 1/2 hours and then the updates were endless.
DylanC Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 I think the longest for me was BLOPS 4. Took almost a day to download. Think my daughter was using the internet at the time, though.

I re-installed GTA V the other day and I was having some kind of PTSD remembering how I went to bed and woke up 8 hours later and the game was still updating -_-. Needless to say, it took me 10 hours after updates and everything else.

Shole Posted January 1, 2021 Posted January 1, 2021 7 Days World of Warcraft The Frozen Throne. It was the most I waited for a game to download, it was just a pain but the reward was worth it.

If my my network isn't super fast, I wouldn't bother trying to download.Â
