Nadun'Hagar N00bs With Guns	Posted - 2007.09.25 19:42:00 - [1] Just wondering since Rev III will pretty much double the size of the eve folder on my HD, if you will be releasing it in increments over a few days? Or do we get to download 2gb in one patch! what fun!

Mrmuttley Guns 'N' Hoses	Posted - 2007.09.25 19:48:00 - [3] Given that the full game client is 638 MB i doubt we are going to see a huge patch. CCP seem to have the knack of keeping file sizes down to a bear minimum. .
Nadun'Hagar N00bs With Guns	Posted - 2007.09.25 19:49:00 - [4] thats what I was thinking. But I seem to recall a video interview with the big O on MMORPG.com and he said something to the effect of it doubling in size or somthing like 2gb (dont recall) I mean, we are getting all new models in the game, its pretty much a new client.

Just the download is what Im harpping on.

I wouldnt be so sure, textures take up a lot of room, and rev3 essentially has new textures for everything that moves in eve ----------------------------------------------- "post with your main. delete your alt, you sad little exploiting metagamer."

Bluefix Gnu Terror Corps	Posted - 2007.09.25 20:41:00 - [9] Didn't they say 2 gb? I'm not sure, but it's a significant increase for sure.
Admiral Pelleon Caldari White Shadow Imperium Burning Horizons	Posted - 2007.09.25 20:44:00 - [10] lol my steam folder is 35 gigs not worried about eve. :p ________ "It's a good day to die!"

Peturabo	Posted - 2007.09.25 20:52:00 - [12] The Rev III patch will be around 2GB and it will be an all in one patch (as stated by ccp in an interview, cant remember which so cant link it).
Jakkul STK Scientific M. PIRE	Posted - 2007.09.25 20:57:00 - [13] I just hope they release it as a torrent then... poor download servers not going to like 100k people downloading a 2Gb file

Mikelio Raijan Sulithus	Posted - 2007.09.25 21:48:00 - [15] I seem to remember the big patches having a torrent link put up several days in advance, if the patch is indeed that large some sort of preload/open advanced download awhile before release would be smart.
Kermis Caldari The Ankou The Reckoning.	Posted - 2007.09.25 21:49:00 - [16] 2 gigs should take no more than an hour to download... Not that bad...
Ze4K DK Gallente Viper Squad Triumvirate.	Posted - 2007.09.25 22:18:00 - [17] Originally by: Kermis 2 gigs should take no more than an hour to download... Not that bad... Depending on your internetz and the server you're downloading from... But if you think your e-peen is bigger than others because you can download 2 gigs in an hour feel free to post cool comments like this all day...

Or do we get to download 2gb in one patch! what fun! Ummm don't use 56k? Assuming they limit it at 1 meg/sec thats 2000 seconds, or 34 minutes. That's half downtime. --------------------------------- Core 2 Duo E4300 1.8ghz @ 3ghz, 2GB Gskill DDR2 5400 @ 800mhh 4-4-4-12, Abit fatality mATX F-I90HD @ 334mhz, 8800GTS 320mb 2x250GB 7200.10s Raid 0, Vista 64 Home.
Devian 666 Sectoid Technologies	Posted - 2007.09.25 23:51:00 - [19] Damn I'm on a daily cap of 350meg before it turns down to 56k speed. This will end up taking a few days for me to download. If it's gonna be 2 gig there needs to be an independent reliable download available 24 hrs for this size. I agree I don't have the features to be a holoreel star. Most people have missed the point that this is Mobsters Online and that carebears are at the bottom of the foodchain.
Amantus Gallente Murientor Tribe	Posted - 2007.09.25 23:57:00 - [20] Ah great. I'm on a crappy wireless connection and the maximum download speed for me will be about 250kb/s. Add in the likelihood of the my connection just dropping randomly and it's a recipe for a bag o' laffs. It'll be worth it though, for sure. ------------

NOOO 1mbps internet speed is bits. so it will be 8 times that long. 1 "meg" connection, is 125 kilobytes per second download speed. - - - - - - Change just leads to more problems Originally by: CCP Wrangler Oh please no, I've had enough with real world taxes, and dealing with the tax agency. No more taxes!!

Zephite Warrior Nation United SMASH Alliance	Posted - 2007.09.26 00:27:00 - [23] Considering they said they'll still support the current and new client after rev 3. I assume they'll release a general update for the current client then leave it as an option to download the new client.
5n4keyes Sacred Templars DeStInY.	Posted - 2007.09.26 00:52:00 - [24] tbh i think if its going to be 2 gig, CCP should offer a DVD version, which they can charge a little for. Ide happily pay for it, to save me having to download it each time ide format! Then all we got to do is patch up!
dagdda	Posted - 2007.09.26 01:26:00 - [25] so I am asuming that I can down load the patch once to a temp folder then patch my 2 PCs?? question is on one PC I have 2 accounts (3 total) would that be 4 GIGs space needed on that one PC?
Sikozu Prioris Suns Of Korhal YouWhat	Posted - 2007.09.26 01:47:00 - [26] Originally by: dagdda so I am asuming that I can down load the patch once to a temp folder then patch my 2 PCs?? question is on one PC I have 2 accounts (3 total) would that be 4 GIGs space needed on that one PC? You can run as many instances of the game client from one instalation of eve, you dont need seperate installs for each instance of eve u run. "A enemy fleet emerges from the shadows" - What shadows!?! We're in ****ing space for gods sake

Even if he did, how would that help him download the patch, when he wants CCP to send him a CD with the patch on it?

Hey most I ever seen my connection download is 80kb/s so don't complain
