So I got black Ops on DVD for my PC.
Installed it, Steam pops up and says I have to download the game - all 16Gb of it - from the most crowded servers in the history of the Internet.
What is the point of getting a disc when you can’t use it.
And yeah I’ve read all the crap about installing from disc - command lines etc.. but could I bollox like get it to work.
Stupid fookahs - I wanna shoot people today not tomorrow.
Thats the one reason I bought the PS3 version. If you own a game, you should be able to slip the disc in and start the shooting, not install, update, patch, verify…wait…wait…play. Steam sucks a$$
My disc of Civilization V just contained one of those regular Steam backups that you can make yourself. Put the disc in and run the installer on the disc and stuff should copy off the disc instead of download.
