No, not yet but preload should commence in 48 hours early before launch date.

So rude, and here I was just generalising and not even talking about you specifically

3-4 is not that slow. Some people can take days to download a new AAA game, maybe you're in that camp, who knows

but it's nice having 2 gig fibre, it's faster to just download than preload for me

I thought you were mocking thats why i got offensive,sorry

So did not answer the ops question.
No preload then

I haven't seen them say anything about a preload on Steam, no. I can't definitively say there won't be, but to my knowledge they haven't said there will be either, so I wouldn't assume there will. I would assume there won't to be on the safe side.

One of the reasons that Steams annoys me about new releases. I don't understand why they can't do preloads like Sony or Xbox for that matter?

Yeah I don't get why some games have preload and others don't. Especially when it's such a big title as this one.

And that consistent release time is top notch, while Valve just snoozes through the whole thing as usual.

Fairly certain 90% of this is up to the publisher.

Konami likely doesn't care, Bloober had to beg them to make a PC version apparently.
