Guild Wars 2

OK, so, here’s another question: My Guild Wars 2 .DAT file says it’s currently at 12.3 gigs, but the installer screen says I’m slightly over 20 gigs. Why is this? What’s the huge size difference for?

I’m afraid you have to wait for the full 22GB.

I’ve currently downloaded 14GB and I too have the same internet speed more or less. It’s taken me so far more or less 36 hours.

Slow internet sucks.

Haha, I know, right?! DOWN WITH CRAPPY NET!!! Grabs pitchfork Yay, I’m not the only one with a horrible net connection and speed!

A friend of mine got this for me during the sale and I’m installing now; I have been since last night and I’m only now at 22%/11.67 gigs with 235,532 files remaining out of the starting 303,660 files. I have horrible net here and I’m getting DL speeds of between 30KB/sec to 200+KB/sec. :/ Does anyone know if this lets you play before all the files are done DLing like GW1 did and WoW does? It would suck to wait for the full 22 gigs!
