How big is the patch?
it frikken HUGE my friend.
It’s really big. about 7600 files and a painstacking 50kb/sec average due to high traffic
over 7,600 files. very nice! anxiously awaiting patch notes now
so like 500+ megs?
Well, at 1% I have 64 MB downloaded, so approximately 640 MB.
It is about 650 megs 65 megs was at 1%
Yeah my painfully slow 512k Internet is a killer. Was wondering the size myself. Looks like an all nighter to download.
I’m going about 900kb/s

woah! thats insane! can only imagine whats in it
1% at around 44MB which is 4400MB (x100 not x10 for 1%)
i’m at 11% 200+ mb
At 10% I was at 200megs, so 2GB maybe?
I’m at 20% at 230 MB downloaded … multiply that by 5 … and well … it’s a pretty big patch!

I find myself wondering why large patches aren’t released around 8am (US/EST). Unless they contain critical stability/exploit fixes, of course… (waits for patch notes…)

1% 64MB Implies 100% 6400MB not 640 MB. (So 6 gigs)
I was at 1% at ~78MB, 2% at 120MB. 5% 171 MB so it’s obviously not very accurate.
It might be measuring the amount of files more than the actual amount of data.
whoa! what a big patch, wonder what inside it
Approx 7,600. I am currently downloading the patch at an average speed & am thrilled to see the outcome

i was at 300mb at 21 % so i would say its quite alot ^^ problem is i wont be able to sleep until ive downloaded and checked stuff out hehe
come on at 35% and it resets
Wow, just realized my epic math fail there. 64*100 = 6400. That probably isn’t right though. Anyways, at 7% with 180 MB, so basically all I can say is that it is big.
47% and going at about 1.5 Mb/sec
It’s around 1.1 GB give or take; actually less than that, my calculation is probably wonky
Looks to be a few KB over 1 gig to me.
@406mbs downloaded with 5.1k files left.
and at 20% 280MB, so not very accurate :P
I can confirm 30% and about 366MB.
i guess 1.5gb? having 1-3mb/s
Im anxious to see what Act 1 is however since so many people are downloading the patch right now im only running at 600kbs
I don’t think the percent is size based, but number of files based. I’m going to guess at least 600mb+ at this point.
It feel like we have redownload Gw2. because guild wars 2 is 8gb
The percentage thing is aparently terribly inaccurate,now at 56% with 460 MB downloaded so far. Go figure.
560kb/sec so slow

Seems around half gigabyte
50% @ 450.xx MB
40% at 422MB. 72% at 500MB. doesn’t scale. It must base the % on # of files left (not file size). /shrug

The launcher does the percentage by file number, not data size.
I’m at 100% and 692MB.

72% → 456 MB
Some where around the 500-600 megs it seems. Im just about done downloading. See ya in game.
really speeds up after 65%
75% done, 1.25MB/sec and at about 500MB so far.
Anyone else getting a connection error when they try to launch the launcher?
It feel like we have redownload Gw2. because guild wars 2 is 8gb
Actually I think it is 20GB for the entire game
72%
Almost there! :D
Guess it’s time for me to pay some more visits to capitals (outside)
The percentage complete has always been based on the number of files, not the size of the download.
You can (for example) have two files making up an entire patch, one that’s 1 byte in size and one that’s 1 GB in size, and when it downloads either one of them (but not the other) it will say “50%” complete.
