Beta is indeed a different app for Steam, so that data/download does not count towards "less dl".

We'll make sure that Vault preorders and backers get their keys on Monday too.


Is that Monday date for preload valid for all three digital distribution channels (Steam, GOG, Vault), or only for Steam?

Anyway, thanks for the information. How muchs GB was DC to install? I guess I have to clean up my hard drives before preloading.... :P

Steam preloading. The other channels don't support that. I think it's 7 or 8 GB.

They don't officially work on weekends, so Monday is the earliest possible date, which is the intended date for preloading.

Apparently it was ready ahead of schedule; you can preload now.

So... how does one preload? Particularly if they got the game via the Kickstarter campaign and there's no code on the vault page entry.

You take the code and put it into Steam. Steam lets you download all/most(?) of the game and then lets you finish and play once the game comes out.

If you don't have a code, that's the problem. I preordered on the Vault and I haven't gotten a Steam key yet, so hoping it comes soon.
