Beta client size

Anyone know how big the beta client download is?

I see you need 21gb to install the game, but is that how big the download is also?

Us simple people down under have internet caps... :(

    It is a large game. Very large. I think the voice file last build was around 7 GB. Just be grateful it's not the 28 GB that it used to be I guess.

     

    If you are interested in this game and end up purchasing it, might i recommend getting a physical copy of it.

    I believe it was a 21 GB dowload for the entire beta client, but if you participated in last weekend's beta test, you can just patch in the update from your launcher.  But even that is about 14 GB.  

    So yeah...it's a monster.

    Thanks for the replies.

    Looks like it's a bit too big for me.  I'll have to go out and buy it when it comes out.

    The internet is not worth using at 56kb speeds anymore, it's like the entire thing just doesn't work!

    I downloaded from scratch, haven't been in the beta before.

    I'm showing 18.5 GIG on my drive.

    157 files and 12 Folders

    Am worried I am short but when I log in nothing updates?

    Am I ready?

    I'm sure it's fine. The game would download anything it was missing. The game size on disk has varied from person to person, I think it's just a matter of having data on your disc from previous installs. I know if you patch up to this version instead of re-installing it is bigger than just downloading it fresh.

    Same story here.. On my NTFS partition, the SWTOR folder has a total size of 18,5GB.. Am I missing something?
