I'm in the same boat, my internet is decent but not great so I really hope the pre-load is midnight so I have a full 24 hours to download. We'll soon see.

I'm hoping it takes under 24 hours for me, my Internet download speed is currently 1.9 Mbps

I'm not good with speeds but I guess that's about 30-35 hours!

If it's a steady 1.9mbps then you're spot on, around 33 hours. Mine fluctuates between 5 Mbps and 7 Mbps so I should be good although I'm paranoid.

Thanks for that.

I'm switching off every single WiFi draining device and hard wiring the ps4!

Not sure why though because I will not be able to play until Tuesday pm so I've got 40 hours of download if it's ready at midnight.

Wish I could get 5 or 7 lol

Yeah not for me it still says 4.451GB. I even went into my system storage management where the game say it takes up 32.62GB but even there when I click on it to see it says it's downloading 4.451GB. Strange I guess I'll wait for the 4.451 to be done and then check after.

Yeah I kinda curse having a 5 Mbps speed but I should be grateful there are people with a lot less. Part of why I'm not so happy with it is because I had a 50 Mbps just before I moved house so it was a big drop off, getting used to the slower speed again now though.

What are you doing in system storage? That only tells you what has actually been installed up to the time of checking. Go to the main startup screen, highlight Fallout 4, hit the Options button, go down to information and the fourth line down will tell you "Download Status"......IGNORE line 3 that says "Size"....that only tells you how big the file will be after it finishes downloading.

i know that. Lol In the main dashboard where it says Fallout 4 and the timer I pressed te options button and then went to information to see the download status where it says number/4.451GB downloaded. I said I also when and checked system storage to say I did check there as well. Like I said I'll wait until this 4.451gb is done and then see the download status again to see if there is more or not.

So midnight has come and gone in the UK and there's no sign of the game downloading. This is a poor effort from PlayStation/Bethesda, Xbox and PC have pre downloaded days ago. If I can't play this at midnight tomorrow I'm boycotting PSN pre orders and reverting back to physical copies.

Doesn't surprise me. Not sure if this a Bethesda ruling as part of its deal with x box or if it's Sony just being odd about it.

I've got a 40mb connection but my ps4 seems to use only 40% of that so need some time to get this done. Surprised no one's complained on twitter yet

Nothing in the UK or Ireland yet. Mate in Scotland said his hasn't started. Folks in New Zealand have 11 hours left and Sony still ain't flipped the switch.

This could get ugly

Pete Hines has said on twitter about 40 mins ago that he thought the Pre-load would be ready now and he isn't sure why Sony hasn't flipped the switch.

I could have finished downloading this a few hours ago but someone else wanted to use my wifi to stream HD movies and such and I was still getting a solid 3.5GB an hour down on the game and I figured I don't get to play this any sooner if I finish installing it in 4 hours or 10 hours......but almost done now, should be less than an hour left at this point.

Really Doesn't nobody know? I have paid MORE for a digital copy to assure the launch day at 0:00 have legally my copy because I live in a Spain small town and here there isn't a midnight launch party. Well now I won't play the game in the ENTIRE 10 and I hope maybe the 11. Because someone messed with timezones, probably it has not been by accident. Worse, It's nobody explains a [censored] about what is happening ...
