    be glad you didnt get 6 gigabytes like i did for this update. however, it may be a hefty file for you because it is a big patch, new content was added.

    The update was 1.59 gigabytes in size. This update is on the large side, but nowhere close to the full game size.

    Your launcher (as did mine) reinstalled the files as a whole, which is a new quirk that some players have noticed during larger updates, but not an issue. The download is unrelated to the installation; the download uses data, the installation does not. The installation shouldn't take as much time as the download.

    took close to 5-6 hours for me

    its my first time to have this kind of large file update ever since i came back from playing years ago, im not used to it and thought that there is something that went bad and now is being redownloaded, so ye 1.6gb took me 2 hours and few mnutes of installation

    all went smooth after that.
