Data usage worry

Hey guys I just got a new computer so I'm eager to get it going. The launcher says my computer needs 80gb of hard drive space to download the patch. Is that going to use 80gb of data from my internet provider? It's a concern because with my provider I pay for data usage and not speed. Thanks
Yes, I do heartily repent. I repent I had not done more mischief; and that we did not cut the throats of them that took us, and I am extremely sorry that you aren't hanged as well as we.

    No it always reads the full game size for some reason but the patch is not that big . Unless you are reinstalling the game , then yes it will .

    Take you computer, even if it's a desktop to somebody's house who just pays for speed. unless it's like that for everyone, well then that sucks.

    Public wifi? That's what I do to patch the game, I live on a mountain with no internet besides my cell data, too.

    By the way, 80 gigs of hard drive space just means the amount of space the install will require. The download itself is probably 45 gigs(ish). But, yeah.. it will count against your internet usage.
