Can you try playing the same game and watching youtube on highest quality and full screen to see if it does the same. I'll download Speedfan to see the GPU temps. Hey guys, i noticed that whenever I'm playing another blizzard game i can't continue to download another blizzard game. I can, just i need to alt+tab to get it going. Which i feel i shouldn't need to.
Disc users have to download and install the day one update for Treyarch's first-person shooter, Activision warned. The day one update is roughly 50GB. Follow my health app download.
Our Final Stand 05:04 (loading lyrics.) 12. Hatred and Revenge 05:26 (loading lyrics.) 13.
This day one update must be installed completely to play multiplayer, zombies and specialist headquarters. But Blackout, the battle royale mode, is playable once installation is about 30 per cent complete (16-20GB).
Activision said 'for an optimised download experience', you should have 112GB of free hard-drive space. This isn't the size of the download, rather, it's the amount of space needed to complete the installation. The final installation footprint, as it's called, is around 55GB.
If you're downloading and installing digital copies of Black Ops 4, the day one version is roughly 55GB.
So there you have it. If you're buying Black Ops 4 on disc, pop it in and pop the kettle on - you've got a big download to get through before you can play.
UPDATE: With the enormous day one update for Black Ops 4 in mind, UK shops are selling the game a day early.
GAME, for example, has done a deal with Activision so that it can sell Black Ops 4 in-store at 6pm this Thursday, 11th October. While users won't be able to play the game until midnight, they'll get a headstart on that 50GB download.

New in town?
Forgotten your details?I want to buy StarCraft II on the Blizzard website, but I want it installed on two different computers (both Macs). I'm wondering if I can install it on two different computers through Battle.net, or am I better off just buying a hard copy of the game and doing it that way?

You can install Blizzard games on as many computers as you want to, however - you'll only be able to log into the game on one PC at a time. This means, for example, that if you have a desktop PC and a laptop you use when you're away from your desktop, you could install the game once on each machine and log in on one of them to play the game. Once you've logged out from one, you can log into the game on the other.
StarCraft 2 is 15gb in size when downloaded from Battle.net - this excludes any patches that will need to be installed after the game has finished downloading. You would be able to install it on one PC and then copy the installation folder over to the other. Once you have completed the copy, manually start the launcher from the game folder and select 'Repair Tool' from the system bar.
It is worth noting that if you purchased a physical copy of the game, you'd still have to add this to a Battle.net account and this account would still limit you to playing it on one PC at once. While you wouldn't have to download 15gb to install the game, you would still need to install all of the patches once the game is installed.
