its downloading!

rebirth

Hahaha gotta love steam, spent the whole evening watching TV and now got to my PC just to see that alpha is allready halfway downloaded, didn't even realize it's downloading till now :D

Slow speeds tho... 650 kb/s doesn't even make use of half my bandwith :/

The game was set to not update for some reason from the engine test, setting it to update automatically started the download.

garvani

you's are complaining at ~1mb's try 60kbps.. ughh

Wiede

I bet the keys won't be out for another couple hours. This is the preload we all wanted atleast.

Mine is done.

How do i see if it updated?
I just restarted steam but nothing, maybe it already downloaded it in the background?

(I just checked disk usage over at localfiles , it says 1505mb, i assume mine downloaded it in the background)

Try a different steam cloud region. Maybe the one you're on isn't updated yet.

I was connected to Finland. Nice and fast there for me in Canada.

More servers will be nice now that this is loading so smoothly for everyone.

Expectations burst like ripened seed pods!

Just had to set it to "Don't automatically update" to "automatically update" and it started up for me, so anyone having issues even after restarting Steam could try it. Can't wait!
