How Large is the Update?

Qyrk

I am actually very surprised that it is only 10 gb. I guess I get to play the content a lot sooner.

@ZOS_GinaBruno Have the devs thought of a "pre-patch" system? The game would download the patch files it needs a short time in advance which will help shorten the length of time required to download the main bulk of the update.

I think a lot of the groundwork for the patch has been put into the previous "incremental patch" updates, which is why many of them were big, so I guess that's already being done in a way?

You'll be fine. It's like 15 to 20gb

Hmm I tried having the EU megaserver as well as US megaservers running damn shame they are not linked but the logistics of running players saves to and from both could have a major impact on playability and possibly introduce more bugs though.

Even if only a mail system between the two could exist that would be wonderful.

I guess I better do the EU update while the US server offline as it will take awhile.

I was using the EU megaserver to test some game play options before my main game on US, however the inability to mail
between the EU and US is a feature that could be added and cause not much downtime as could be merged while game is running, or during a scheduled patch time.

Edit.
By the way you can only use one at a time....

It's not that big because, as I've said in countless other threads, we've been downloading parts of it for the last 6 months

Cant we copy files from PTS into Live to have less to patch?
