Pre-patch to save time?

Vymm · 02-15-2010, 02:03 AM

Sorry if someone has asked this already I looked everywhere for a post about it.. Is there going to be any pre-patching Monday to lower the time we have to patch Tues morning?

Also, will it be safe to copy Beta files over to Live folder to limit downloading?

a) That would make way too much sense.

b) Can't patch what isn't finished.

Vymm man, just copy your beta folder over your live folder.... SMILEY then only the very latest changes will have to be patched.

I was, for one, using the streaming client.. as were a lot of people who I talked to that were beta-testing the game. We can't copy that over to our live non-streaming directory.

I seriously hope that they start pushing files today. I have nightmares of expansion launch days with 8 hour patch times.
