Pre-order Question

Post by frankfarmer »

I have pre-ordered FS 19 off the Official GIANTS Website, does the download start automatically as soon as the game releases or do I have to start it manually?

you have to start it manually with the Donwloadlink and Key wich is found in your eMail.
Preload will start at same Time as on Steam, so its 5 hr before the Release.

Lisertan said on both - the german and the english stream - that there is no pre-load on the giants Homepage. But they have enough server-capacity to manage every download from midnight on.

I have already keyed the activation code in, so will the game now begin to download 5 hours before release or will I have to do something else yet?

Just saw it on the german forum... good for all who purchased via Giants. But I wonder how those decisions are made. on Friday it was "no Pre-Load - we have enough capacity." now it is the exact oposite of that...

Leaves me hoping that I can Play at midnight after I wanted to purchase in a regular store to avoid a late delivery by Amazon... :confusednew:
