Does anyone know how big the download on launch day is going to be in MB/GB?

Thanks!

I doubt it will be 12gb imo.
We tec have most it already through beta testing.

I say 2-3 gb at the most,unless you have to download the full game from scratch.

Probably in total, but you have to realize we already downloaded a decent chunk because of the betas. Parts of verdant brink, all the specializations, and everything in betas has already been downloaded. So that stuff will be needing patching or updates but you already got it. who knows how much we have been downloading weekly. IT might be small download or just to dl what left.

Hit 1% on my download at around 113 MB….so if that is accurate going out, it will be 11-12GB.

Edit correction: Now it shows 3% at 129MB, so the percentage must be number of files, not total size of download.

Your edit is correct. Completion percentage is based on number of files downloaded of how many there are to download…strangely.


Game is playable at: 734 MB

GF finished the download with around 3.5gig.

My download is still going at 95% and it’s already sitting at 3709MB.

Why in the world is there such a big difference? I was online just before launch.

Only difference is OS. She uses Win10, I use Win7.

[s]Ahhhh.

There was an additional patch. :P Mine must have included itself on top of the original patch. [/s]

Nope, doesn’t make any sense still. Patch was tiny.

well i have downloaded about 6 GB how much more is it ???
Is it really 27 GB that is like whole game.

Percentage wise it went fast till like 8500 (no of files) after that its is really slow. Seems like these files are pretty big.
Any heads up how much more (time or size wise) will it be for me ??

If you are downloading the entire game and not just the HoT patch and subsequent updates, then you have a long way to go. My Gw2.dat file is 24.4GB so a total of 24.5-25GB total download size for the entire game with a single language being used. Total size will be more if you switched to a non-English language as those language files would then need to be downloaded as well (likely several hundred megabytes to a gig or few for another language).

( I did close and relaunched game a few times from the initial start of 110K files (total at start of HoT download)
