The Joke is that I didnt read info, downloaded Early access today and have to uninstall it today :D, then I have to spen 1 day to download it again.

If it makes you feel any better, like a dumb ass, I deleted my EA version of the game to then read the post about deleting your saves and then uninstalling. Which I then had to re-download to delete my saves and then uninstall again....

Maybe you just can turn off cloud saves, go to documents and there delete all the saves or whatever they are

To be fair, it was plainly obvious this would happen.

Bruh do you people live in the woods or something, I’m poor and I manage to afford 1GB down and 500 mbps upload speed. It’ll take me 20-30 minutes max.

Do you really think that in corrupt countries your poor money will do something? I'll make the situation clear to you, in my country there is only one Internet provider that controls the Internet in the country. All the cell towers, all the equipment is completely old, the provider's profit per year is over 56 million dollars, but he does not spend the profit on improving equipment and communications, this money goes into the pockets of officials and others. And these 56 million in only one main company, in subsidiaries, of which there are a lot and created to divert attention from the monopoly, make even more profit. We pay a minimum of $22 per 1MB/s per month for wired internet and + another $10 per person for mobile internet per month. And the speed of the Internet on 4G is poor 2-10MB / s because the cell towers are overloaded.

Thanks. Nice to be able to recall amusing (irritating) stuff like that.

Well - Apart from having a decent enough connection (1Gb), I also have bought the game on GOG. This is perfect for these kind of situations, because I can download the off-line installers.

That means I can still play the EA version wile downloading the (31 or so) off-line installation files. And I can keep playing until the downloads are complete. After that it's a simple uninstall of the EA (and the save files I have, of course, stored locally - after I have backed them up), and install the full version.

In the worst case scenario that the full version has big problems (I don't count on that, but there's still a certain Murphy's Law), I can just delete the game, re-install EA (of course I still have the off-line install files and the backed-up save files), and play on until things are solved.

I really love those off-line installer files. I always keep a back-up of them on a external 5Tb or 8Tb hard disk. Those disks don't have to be fast, because it's just installer files and no game.

For the OP. Yeah - It sucks to notice too late the complete EA install is worthless the moment the game is released. It's commendable that you admit it's your own fault. Nevertheless - I feel for you. But at least you are aware now and are not taken by surprise the moment the game is released.

Their lack of detail on when and how you can download the full release version is a little lame.

If youre talking 1 megabyte internet it will only take 2 hours if youre talking 1 megabit then you in 1994

more like 80000/3600 = 22.2 hours

Before you do something, you should try to find out whether what you are doing actually makes sense. If you spent some time researching, you would have found out that downloading the EA makes no sense.

Oh my mistake my connection is actually 11mb per second so only takes me 2 hours. I dont even think there is a 1mb per second plan available for me its as bad as dial up just about

That’s rough, where do you live South Africa or something?
