Empire at War: 15 gig download.

[saffakanera]

Ive heard some stories here that Dawn of War 2 wanted to download the client as well, ignoring the disc... I know this is supposed to act as some sort of countermeasure, but if this trend continues, are we looking at the total annihilation of pc gaming in south africa?

Yes - Total Annihilation! 'Twas an awesome game!

No total war doesn't download 1.5 gigs. That only happens if a bug with the steam client occurs which usually only happens if steam isn't fully updated. The bug is that it attempts to download the full game instead of just the part it needs for the retail version.

Its suppose to download 80-100mb. That's what mine did.

Same for me for Total War.

I also didn't have any problems with DOW2 as some have reported.
