Sorry if the post with how big the game is (storage space-wise) had this in it, but how long is it actually going to take to install and update before we can play the game? Is it going to be 9ish hours like Black Ops 4 where a ton of people wont be able to play it day 1 lol. Really considering driving out Thursday night to get it at the early release at GameStop so I can install it overnight and play it Friday.
If you pre-load it you won't have to worry as much about traffic slowing down download speeds, but keep in mind the game's around a hundred GB.

Personally, I'm getting it physical just so I won't have to deal with that very issue.

isn't part of the issue needing to deal with installing it /after/ you get the physical copy anyway?

Two bluray discs (read that right yes), one for play one for install data. Don’t expect to play it immediately.🕷️
