SCUM AND VILLAINY
You will never find a more wretched hive...
I reformatted on Friday; and I re-downloaded all 18.4GB today. I'm on Comcast shit-cable, so I topped it at like 1.1Mbit, and it still only took 3 or 4 hours. I put up Christmas lights outside while I was waiting. Not a huge deal, and now I'm ready when I get my e-mail.
Unless you'll hit your download cap (poor you), there is really no reason to keep the Beta client from Thanksgiving. It's easier, and better in the long run to delete that client and just re-download it. With this much time beforehand I'd see no reason why people wouldn't opt to do this.
I can't remember exactly when SW:TOR went Gold, but I can't imagine there being more than 5gb of downloading to do.

recieved a reply lads btw. Relatively vague like a good customer service blurb ive cut out their droid name and my own and other stuff.
".....we have received your transmission regarding the installation of the physical installer.
Thank you for your concern. With regards to your issue, after installing the game, you don't need to download anything. The game will automatically patch itself for the current updates to take effect and thats it. As for the size of the patch, it will depend on the updates at that time. But it will surely be not as big as the ones you mentioned.
Hope this answers your concerns ...."
In a way it does it suppose. 19 gigs (the amount i mentioned to them) at my Eircom speeds .3 of a meg so 356k a second at very maximum (ireland is about 10 years behind the rest of the world) should take me yonkers. early access would blow my socks off so ill probably just put her running now and grin and bare it

The Force is the blade of the heart. All are intertwined. The crystal, the blade, the Jedi. You are one.
Yes I know but I'm betting it's similar. The reason being as the game disc's have been gold and sent out to make before Thanksgiving weekend. If thats true and I can't see why it wouldn't be.
Thanksgiving weekend players and after should have a very similar download to what the disc's contain from the box.
If they did get pressed after Thanksgiving weekend, then yeah, there's like 2GB more to download and then it's G2G - but I thought I read places that said that retailers had it before that beta weekend. *shrug* Doesn't really matter, unless you have a download cap (*shudder*).

hope this helps others
