    Can we get an eta on Pre-loading?

    Can someone at Ubi give us a estimated time of when the pre-loading problem will be fix, as hundreds of us are getting an error message about connection and HDD space.

    We can't at this point in time start our download as your servers are either overloaded and can't handle the traffic or you haven't uploaded it to your download servers.

    Steam and origin users appear to be able to download the game, yet Uplay users can't download due to some connection error which is not at our end as we are able to log into our accounts.

    Please fix this soon as we would like to start downloading given the time it's going to take to download.

    I am one of the people who cant preload due to this problem. Annoying considering the download speeds in Australia suck so it will take ages to download the whole game.
    Did you purchase directly from Ubisoft benjabroni?

    I got mine from ozgameshop. Far cry 4 is in my uplay library just getting the same error msg when i try to download regarding internet connection and hard drive space. Could be that they haven't activated certain batches for download yet.

    well that would be about now seeing as it's almost 4pm here in Australia and it's the 17th and the game is supposed to be out tomorrow and given the size of the game and the ****ty slow internet we have here in Australia we will need an extra 24 hrs to download it.
    I will keep trying but know Ubisoft they are going by US release date, which is typical, the annoying thing is the Ubisoft Au FB page says the game is available for download now yet we can't download it so they are either lying or too blind/lazy to read the post stating we can't download and need to retract their post stating it's available for download.

    Exact same issue here, still no answer to my question on ubi support.
    More terrible customer service from ubisoft.
