Maybe missed somewhere else, but for most of the World that isn't completely unlimited how big is PTS 1.6 file. If we want to download it and have download file limit size per month? Thanks, from frustrated fan who just wants easy answers after paying... cheers.

    14 GB (just the update) if I remember correctly.

    Not sure of full size, but if you haven't downloaded the PTS before (ever), as in, you have no PTS folder under Zenimax Online, the initial download (not sure if there are any subsequent downloads) is about ~38GB.

    Honestly for anyone with a monthly cap, I feel sorry for you. However I fail to understand why Zenimax can't just copy the game over and just make you download the update file like what you can do (and should do) to avoid downloading the whole game again which is what the Launcher currently makes you do.

    I believe it's an 8 GB download for the visual content and 6 GB for the audio.

    Not downloaded PTS before, so 38GB and then probable updates! Guess I'll be having to wait then. Shame waited an age for these changes!!!! Very much appreciate the feedback from other players.
    Zenimax any any chance of a specific answer?
    I agree having to download multiple huge game files all the time, seems rather outdated.
    Cheers

    I honestly wouldn't bother for the time being.

    I just downloaded the entire 38GB file, get to the end and get the 209 error and despite trying every "fix", nothing at all works and so I can't play on the PTS.

    If you have a limited data cap, downloading a whole 38GB file to find out you can't use it will be a painful thing to swallow.

    I recently downloaded it, I think it was 36gb plus a 6gb after.
