Does running a 2nd instances on same pc require TWO full installations?

<p>I've installed the game using the new launcher. I let it preload all the assets and it works as supposed.</p><p>When I log into the game and then start a new instance using the same launcher, it will begin downloading all the assets again. Is this really necessary?</p><p>Apparently it fills up a folder called Assetcache in the same directory as my first instance.</p><p>I don't get it..</p>

<p>Using the standard station launcher, you're fine with just one installation.  Install, Download, Launch client #1, Launch client #2, (Launch client #3) and you're good.</p><p>It's the streaming launcher that has the restriction that two clients cannot run from the same set of assets, and as a result it tries to pull down a second asset instance for the second client you launch.</p><p>Go with the standard non-streaming launcher (http://launcher.station.sony.com/) and you're all set.  (You will probably have to uninstall/reinstall to switch launchers though.)</p><p>-Ken</p>
