Big enough to make you cry like a baby if your download limit is small. >.>;

Which I did. Then I played a bit. Then Blizz decided I should download the whole thing again. :|

I think the last patch was up to 16 gigs. I just left it go overnight. :|

BTW, welcome Spiff. :) Gotta love Calvin and Hobbes. :mrgreen:

I know! That was such a cruel joke! If I had known I'd have waited a week before downloading it. :(

So I'm trying, AGAIN, to download the PTR since the one from last night didn't seem to work and all I keep getting is that the download server timed out. This is EVERY time I try it.

Am I doing something wrong?????????

Edit: I mean I set the file to install in the "Public" folder like regular WoW so that was correct file location right?

The last PTR downloaded showed somwhere between 17-18 gigs as teh target download size. However, getting info on the PTR Folder shows....

14.4 Gigs.

It may download some things it doesn't need that get deleted when it installs.

Either way, have a minimum of 20 gigs free on the drive you install in to try and reduce fragmentation as much as possible would be my advice.
