Hitman: Absolution how large is the download?

[Dukmiester2]

Just bought the game and have it stashed away in my inventory.

How large is the download? No mention of it on the store page,and
Steam tends to pause downloading while in game so don't want to add it
to my Library until i know how long it'll take to download.

Thanks for response :)

It looks like its about 20gigs

The preload download size was 12GB, but when installed it will expand to about 20GB

you can force a game to continue downloading by right clicking it and clicking pause, and then right clicking it and clicking resume after booting up a game that would pause it.

Thanks for the replies. I am now downloading, got the professional edition and is about 14.5 gig.

I have alt-tabbed out of games in the past and got a download to resume while in game, but that sometimes causes instability in certain games, so I've just avoided it all together and just let my downloads run while I surf the web, read forum posts, mow the grass etc...

Thanks again for the replies :)

Does anyone know how long It'll take to download? I mean, I'm pretty sure that It will take hours but can anyone give me a estimate?

2. That depends on your connection. Take the speed of your connection (6mbit, 16mbit, 50mbit etc.) and divide it by 8 to get your Downloadspeed in megabytes instead of megabits. Divide the size of the Download by your Downloadspeed and you know how many seconds it will take to Download it (it´s not an exact value and can depend if other people use the same connection).

Example: 12 GB Download; 6mbit/s Downloadspeed. 6/8=0.75mb/s. 12.288mb/0.75mb/s = 16384 seconds. 16.384s/60 = 273m/60 = 4.5 hours.

Thank You for that. It was very detailed and helpful, and I normally don't check the time of the posting. I will next time...Thanks again!
