It's a 14GB download or so, and there's most likely more people than just you waiting to dl the entire package lol. I wouldn't be surprised if they have a queue enforced so at least not everyone is downloading at the same time and suffering at 5kb/s . Patience . -- Life is a game of blackjack. You keep playing until you bust.
I honestly think it was some bug with steam. At the time their content servers were below average usage. Once I paused and unpaused the download it finally started
I have this problem with every download from steam. I have to screw aound with it for a few minutes before it will do anything. It will download, you just have to prod it a few times.
