    How big is the patch after installing with the CD?

    Title says it all, i dont have a very high net cap - living in australia. Any idea the size of the 57000 odd files you need to DL after using cds to install?

    See also this thread. The total update that you still need to download after installation from disk, is apparently a little over 3GB.

    The whole game download from the Net took me 13 hours, I think it was considerably more files than that though as you had the CD version. Well over 200,000.

    I am not sure of the exact file amount however.

    The full game is around 15GB at the moment, so yes, downloading from scratch would take considerably longer. That ~3GB is only the patches/updates that were released in the period since the discs were sent to press (which is definitely more than a month).

    2.7GB and takes about 2.5-3 hours averaging 150kb/s.
    I just went through that last night. And I know your pain, I also have a bandwidth cap.
    And the d/l speeds up once you hit 50%.
