Notice it only downloads ~10 MB worth of new content, the rest of the 14.5 GB is "completed" by using what your WoL already has. Kinda funny, if you think you pay so much money for a few MB. 
But I guess there're 6 GB not downloaded yet at this point.
|
Ok ! I don't go on us.battle.net... and... ok !
|
So updating wol and letting it download is essentially pre-loading hots unless I am mistaken? Interesting :D

Yeah, the cinematics alone should be more than 10 MB, I think.

it didn t download anything for me, is that because i own hots beta?
|
In your screenshot the WoL folder is 800MB, not 8GB.

I have the HotS beta as well but it still downloaded it for me. I did not get a progress bar in the launcher though, it was just downloading it in the background. Check Info > Connection Information in the launcher to see if it's downloading anything.

Running sc2 as admin might help also. I sometime have to do it to dl an update.

800 MB is the patch for WoL, You get rest of 8GB from your normal WoL instalation. (After checking your folder, patch automatically starts from 8GB / 14 GB)

for me it looks like this (mac-user)
it states that it downloads, but it doesn't show the progress.

That is not weirtd, that is how it is supposed to be. Blizzard stated in their news that it will be like this. And the reason is also quite clear: It preloads the patch, but does not apply it.

Guess I'll leave the launcher on all day.
|
Reminds me I still need to preoder HOTS
|
I think the patch for WoL they're talking about is just the interface change, replay features, clan features etc. everything that comes new for HotS

No it isn't. The major part of the patch are encrypted files for HotS. Just look into the new created Updates\SC2_HotS_20_BGDL directory in ur SC2 installation after download

Yeah, true but on that Blizzard News they said that there is also something for WoL in this patch, and i think this might be the changes coming with HotS

Just downloaded it, gz to blizz for having highspeed servers, I DL'd around 5.9 a sec. Not bad
|
nvm, there will be error 13
|
If WoW is any indication of how these patches work, we are downloading a bunch of files that will ease the patching of version 2.0 when it finally comes. Yes, WoL will also be played on v2.0.

I can't believe u understand his question.

Just finished. Dont see any changes to WoL visually. I guess its just there to prep WoL to HOTS transition. I was so excited too

God damn it, now I have to be all paranoid about data-mining idiots spoiling stuff.

Impossible, Heart of the Swarm MPQE files are encrypted and can't be opened

You have a lot of faith in Blizzard's code. I would find it hard to believe that not a single person in the online SC2 community, even just TL can't decrypt some game files.

the SEA launcher doesn't seem to start the download, the launcher had the small update however

Diablo wasn't decrypted either... it would be a waste of time and not alot of people would care.

Proper encryption will never be broken in time for the game's release.
The only reason we got spoilers a few days early last time was a trick with the installer - the installer unlocked the files itself after it was tricked.

Do you open the WoL or HotS client? Since I opened WoL and it says the download is at 0%, moving at 0kb/s.

Well from what I understand now, D3 was a waste of time, and not alot of people cared (at least past the second week or so)

But there was still a lot of hype beforehand, and even then, the encryption wasn't cracked.

Well, so now need to find encryption method and open these MPQE files. Or wait for release.
On other side, only then story will be more interesting if we will not have spoilers
|
i just downloaded the installer for the beta and its stuck at 0,0% and installing....
anybody has the same issues?

MPQE uses the salsa20 Stream cipher,we can break it using bruteforce algorithm but it will take forever.
There are other more efficient ways but i'm not skilled enough.

Finished at 6.2 gigs of extra stuff. Does this mean I don't have to download hots on release? I can just play right away?
