Only 4.3gb though... seems kinda small?
I think it is a good size.

I'm not saying it isn't but for an expansion of this size that's a very small download.

More to come maybe? Heavily compressed?
It's in the right ballpark. The website told me 5, so that's pretty close. It's essentially just a very large update to begin with. All the core functionality is already there.

I've a certain Tank in my static that will be thrilled to see the size of this download. XD
Awesome, that's only like a 40 minute download for me... followed by some intense WAIT.
Queueing it up this mornin'.
Hour download here, and I got 120MB inet x_X

I am kinda glad they are allowing us to download it before early access hits; I'm secretly hoping for the dataminers to go nuts on reddit soon.

Hour and half, two hours. Not bad, but not speedy. It's the country - I'm lucky it's that fast.
I'm blessed with very fast net so... only 11mins for me =o
I'm at around the 30 min. mark.

was going to say, going by WoW expansions:
  • BC: 10GB
  • WotLK: 15GB
  • Cata: 25GB
and given that it states on the site:
Quote:Available space on hard disk/SSD - 20GB
I am going to go with hella compressed.
20 gigs is about how much space the game is going to take, total, I think. 4.3 for the expansion, and my install folder weighs in at 14.5 pre-update.

Could be wrong though.

Makes sense.
Remember that download amount =/= install amount, as the download amount is compressed so you don't have to spend a shit ton of time and money that's not needed. Around 5gb sounds right for an expansion since most steam games that are 15-20gb in size installing are between 5-8gb in download size.
