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.

Each man longs to pursue his dream. Each man is tortured by this dream, but the dream gives meaning to his life. Even if the dream ruins his life, man cannot allow himself to leave it behind. In this world, is man ever able to possess anything more solid, than a dream?

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.

I'm bad, and that's good. I will never be good, and that's not bad. There's no one I'd rather be than me.

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.

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.

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.
