Is there a way to manually switch it yet to a full download? I would just as soon download everything overnight, I share a lot of bandwidth here at work and that would be much quicker in the long run.

that would defeat the purpose of having a streaming client. if you prefer the whole game then get the other launcher.

http://launcher.station.sony.com/



note: to those that multi box on the same machine... you'll need the other launcher as well.. the streaming client doesn't appear to be able to launch multiple instances of itself which makes sense I suppose.... (not sure if you can have multiple installs of it, I havent tried that at least)



Sorry for the delayed response. Yes, I did have a lovely holiday - I hope yours was as well.

The new launcher will soon get the ability to allow you to download the game if you want to wait for it. We need to polish the user interface a little bit before we get it out to you.

The launcher CAN be launched multiple times. If you run it again with the same account login, it will show that you are already playing (you can only launch once per account). If you login with another account, it will allow you to launch another instance.

A small caveat though: The streaming client has exclusive access to its read/write asset database. This means that multiple clients will not share an asset database; the second client must download its own version of the assets. If you're multiboxing on the same machine, I recommend using the full-download version through Station Launcher.

Having multiple clients share an asset database is on the list of things to do, but it's a very complicated problem to solve efficiently.
