big game Can i download a game that is big before my new pc arrives?

[DodoDodo123]

Hello!

Please tell me ASAP, i would like to download a 30GB game before my new pc arrives, so I could just install it there....

 

Is that possible even?

 

Could I download the game installation now (on my old pc that I am using now) and put it on a Cloud or something so I could just take it from the internet when my new pc arrives so I wouldn't have to download it there...

 

I cannot say the name of the game...

 

Thanks!

Best Regards!

You can download it onto a drive, then just move it over to the new PC. Just move the files into the directory you're installing your games to

Look, people!

 

Please do not reply to this, I have come to a conclusion....

 

I will download and install the game when i get my new pc....

 

Thanks!

Best Regards!

Well no, you can copy the files directly to the new PC

Put it onto whatever drive you have available, then literally click and drag to the new PC's drive using the file system

Use a flash drive? Or just put the old disk in the new PC and copy over your files

Why can't you do that?

Are you computer savvy enough to take out the old drive from your previous PC and just plug it in to the new one? Otherwise I believe it's possible to move files across PCs on the same network

Actually, I will ask the person who is going to build the PC with me...

 

Mayby I should just do that...

I know you said don't reply, but I'd like to point out that putting 30 GB on cloud and "getting it from the internet" is still downloading, which makes no sense if we're honest. Especially for extra uploading 30 GB.

It doesn't take long to download a 30gb file nowadays anyhoo.
