Yes crown store items whenever they are planning to add more its normally during the small fixes updates, so seems likely0 -
MaximumBunnySoul ShrivenI just got the game a few days ago. Have been doing 24/7 downloads with my not-so-fast internet to get it installed. Finally finished earlier today and then this new patch hits. I've never seen a game that needed so many large, frequent updates.

The updates are only bi-weekly, unless there is something that needs a quick fix. What's insane is the SIZE of the patches where there it isn't blindly obvious (ie. "Patch Notes: New texture models for XYZ!") need for such a crazy amount of downloading.
Hopefully, with time, the game will be re-engineered in a way that makes it easier to update.0 -

There's only weekly maintenance on Mondays. Recently, it's been bi-weekly. It's usually no big deal, just leave your patcher open while you sleep and it should be patched by the time you get around to the PC!1 -

Updates/patches/maintenance are weekly, usually. There are instances where we don't have them, such as holidays or when there just isn't anything ready to be pushed.msanchez7317 wrote: »The updates are only bi-weekly, unless there is something that needs a quick fix.

Content that will, if they are doing their jobs even close to properly, more than likely change due to QA testing between now and actual release, so we'll get to download it all again next time.
For a patch that change a half dozen things in very minor ways 2.6GB is unacceptable, even if it has 2GB of "future content" packaged with it.

"I am a nightblade. Blending the disciplines of the stealthy agent and subtle wizard, I move unseen and undetected, foil locks and traps, and teleport to safety when threatened, or strike like a viper from ambush. The College of Illusion hides me and fuddles or pacifies my opponents. The College of Mysticism detects my object, reflects and dispels enemy spells, and makes good my escape. The key to a nightblade's success is avoidance, by spell or by stealth; with these skills, all things are possible."0 -

1.6GB extra if you speak French or English? How does that make sense? What had they got totally wrong in French and English but right in the German translation?

You are referring to this :
"Grouped Veteran Rank player characters of any level will now receive both experience and loot credit, regardless of their contribution."
So the problem is that contribution only applies to those doing damage output. And instead of designing a smart system (not really smart by today's standards..) that incorporates all types of player activity and counts it as contribution..they just made the game even more easy.
Now you have to do even less to get rewards

Well I usually kick people who are afk in dungeons so not sure anyone would be around doing nothing so if you think about it and use the kick tool properly, it is the same thing. It probably would have taken more data to implement healing as a contribution to fights or something. I'm happy as a puppy no matter the size of the patch, I get all the loot that I deserve now 0
