What percentage of download is needed before I can play
What percentage of download is needed before I can play. I'm at about 28% so far. Steam is not so helpful as PS5 which indicates exactly what is needed before play begins.

I don't think you can in this game.

I don't believe it works like that on Steam. You'd need 100% to play.

100%. Easy.

The only app that would be possible would be an Eletronic Arts game

On pc you never can play before its done downloading, at least on steam. Some launchers like blizzard will allow you to play at a set percent though. Just steam ive never seen a game do this.

Unfortunately this is not Guild Wars 1 or 2.

Surely we can take our quarter of the way there and get a character rolled?

Dang! I misread the setting. It says something about downloads while playing a game but now I see it really means allow other downloads while playing a game. This is a serious weakness. I mean, technically there might be enough in 10 or 20% to start playing but we have to wait for all of it! And when one remembers that most games are never finished by most players, that means we're waiting for no good reason. Oh well...

I'm at 31% now so just have to not get any sleep tonight. :(

Anyway, the game does try to launch from the desktop so I'm going to try it from time to time just to see if I discover an unknown feature. hehe! :) now at 32% Impatient? moi? I'm only getting this game to fill in until September when Starfield launches. At this rate I might be playing Starfield first!

You need 100% downloaded for it to run.
