Aww you beat me to it.

I'll post mine anyhow. The patch notes are up on the beta forums and MMO-Champion already though.

Strange. At first mine said I needed about 200MB base, once that was done I could actually press the play button and open the client (only to see the realms offline). Now it says I need 987.2MB base and I've got a whole lot of downloading to do before I can play.

I believe that initial 200-ish megs is a setup file (What the streaming launcher sees as a setup ie. the very basic foundation of the game) and the rest is the actual content.
This is just my guessing with observation and looking at the log files and such.
My peer to peer is turned off too which speeds the download up for me immensely. Not sure if that's off by default, I believe it is.

Actually, Goblins are broken at the moment - loading/playing a goblin crashes the beta. o.O It's in the news when you try to log in.

Looks like the servers are coming back up.

Syxx · 09-01-10, 07:47 PM

They've been "up" for about an hour or so.
I use quotes on the word up because Lost Isles seems to be having some... issues.
Ahh, the sweet sweet smell of beta.
