    Well, there's been changes in a lot of areas of the game, so there's probably a lot of package files containing old and new assets together to be downloaded.

    Engage your brains people... If they changed every spawn room on every continent plus lots of other changes, how much data would that add up to? 4.4gb sounds about right. This is the largest patch the have ever done and adds a ton of new stuff, and i can't flipping wait to get in the game.

    Last thought, imagine how big the download will be when they add the new continent...

    Basically a whole new client, more or less?

    Meh, alot of changes. Remember that alot will be relacing old files. So, your total size should not increase insanely.

    all done. I'd be ready to play if the servers were up.

    Can you download the patch yet? :eek: The launcher doesn't do anything for me.

    Edit: There we go. Changing the language once did the deal.

    yaaaaaaay! New things are always so damn exciting.

    holy balls it feels like I'm downloading the game all over again. Good. I kinda like that.

    must be some fundamental changes for a patch to be that big.
  18. Gallio

    Oh man another thread where people are ******** about the patch size. This forum is overflowing with originality.

    You people do realize that it isn't necessary an extra 4gigs being occupied on your computer right? A lot of that data is replacing OLD data so you'll still roughly have the same install size. :rolleyes:
