Slow download, verifying.... unpacking... patching then corrupted
really Valve?

why happened to steam? it used to be so efficient and good.

Now it takes ages to download, i know its not entierly your fault, it is also how they make the games, but still.

now i updated.... patched the whole game from first byte to last, then verified, THEN..... Corrupted.

Can we just skip the verify progress? its so useless. will most likely not change a thing since we gotta veify anyway if something is corrupted.

What game is this? What I can think of are as follow:

- Possible corrupted files that not being removed as suppose to, or you have place files in there that causing the issue such as mods, or etc...

- Possible anti virus / etc is interacting with game files, and doing something it shouldn't be doing causing the game not to work correctly.

The verify is to check if game has anything missing, or corrupted files, when you run the verification.

i only got 1 hard drive with steam and the games, Verification should be optional since it rarely happens!!

it is different games, ark takes 7-8 hours with 50 mb/sec download speed.
Dead by daylight is another that takes ages.

Bottom line..... verification should just be optional lol, its just a waste of time.

Verification is to ensure the game runs correctly and doesn't have issues, due to corrupt files.

If the files are getting corrupted on your system, then I suggest checking the health of your disk drive as well as that of your RAM.

i have checked a week ago, funny how as i did it just for fun. i know things can get corrupted, im just saying..... dont force this step on us..... its just useless.

files get corrupted very rarely, and if it happens you cant play the game anyway, so you can manually verify.

over the years steam has become made it very tedious to download and install games.

We cant help you with no spec , you might have a rust bucket pc ( toaster ) the weaker or older pc you have will give issue with newest games.

Except you say the files keep getting corrupt, so there is something wrong locally that keeps corrupting them. As it is happening consistently, then it isn't "very rarely" now is it?

Downloads are verified as many things can happen to the data when in transit or even locally on the destination system.

It isn't useless and is needed.

If talking about verify free space before download it doesn't take long, unless you're using a old HDD that slow, or your HDD need to be defrag to regain performance.

What happens is this you start download > it checks if you have free space claiming it > it downloads the whole game, or in parts depending on the game dev how they package their game > then it unpack itself on your system then it's done.

Verification is done when you manually start it up to do check for errors, or missing files, it will never be removed because you want it gone, it job is to check for issue, that is the point of verification.

Like I said if there files being left behind that was causing issue when downloading new files, or you place mods, or something in the game folder to mess with game, ensure that not the case, and if using 3rd party anti virus, or etc that messing with files and permissions, or even hooking into the game ensure they're not causing the issue.


Now in order Steam to say there corruption / write error means either something going on your system that A) You have no space left on system most common mistake people make thinking they got unlimited space on their storage drive, B) Their storage drive have bad sectors you need to do scan, and repair hope it just an error, and not a dead sector that means failing drive, C) If using HDD, and never defrag your drive, you should do that to see if this fixes it issues.

No they haven't done anything different for over a decade to the downloading process, what has change is up to the game devs how they package their game files to you to cut down bandwidth download, game files are compress, which why they get unpacked.
