I live in a WI-Fi bowl, which, for the mercifully unaware, means that I'm capped at criminally low internet speed. Any game I want to play will take an age to download—it took me three weeks to download Stalker 2. So it goes without saying that I'm always making full use of preloads.
One such example is Embark Studio's upcoming extraction shooter Arc Raiders, which had its preload go live yesterday. I've seen a bunch of players take advantage of this as we all hype ourselves up for the launch tomorrow by staring at a slow-moving blue bar. I say "we all," but sadly, not everyone who wanted to get ahead of the download has been able to do so.
