The Elder Scrolls Online

Maintenance for the week of August 24:
• PC/Mac: No maintenance – August 24
The maintenance is complete, and the PTS is now back online and patch 12.1.3 is available.

96GB pts update, are we getting a full new game or what?

    Did you not have PTS installed already? It is a full second copy of the game.

    Sometimes patches reorganize the content of the original game, which can make patches sometimes even more larger than the game itself. But that doesn't necessarily have anything to do with the size of the game after the patch.

    Yup, even if I do not have the last week or two patch, I think I do have the 1st or 2nd week patch of this pts cycle ... so it's not even that old pts version what I already have

    The Patcher always tells you the full size of the patch. However, in practice a lot of the files will be unchanged from the previous version that you have downloaded. So if you do already have an install of PTS, the actual download will be considerably smaller than the amount quoted.

    Hope this makes things clearer!
