Did you try to install the game to confirm the size of the file?
Or it won't work till the patch comes out?

I'm one of those that have managed to preload already (obviously can't play until the servers are open mind), my Defiance folder is just over 10gb. There may well be more to come over the weekend I'd say.
My defiance is 5gigs. No game install just patches. 3 x 1.7 gig patch data and 40kb patch data.
The back of the box says. 10 gigs hard drive space required
I dont know the values without patching, but with patches to v.1.449730, size should be: 10,4 GB (11*266*648*985 bytes).
Well the box says 10gigs. Guess the game runs of the disc. I thought it would be like ff11 which installed all data to hard drive
I think many people would be okay with that especially those who have the copy but in the end would probably get mad becuase there characters got reset on the 2nd when the day actually comes out. So not opening the servers just seems to be the best idea if you ask me.

Damn lol, i have my copy on the shelf already! It's itching, i'm impatient and REALLY wanna play right now!
Then again, i do understand i have my copy because of a very nice retailer that made sure my copy arrived at my doorstep before the easter-madness with the postal services. For which i'm grateful, cause now i know for sure to be playing on the releasedate. I also do understand that not every retailer has done this, and not everyone has their copy available yet. Personally, i would be pretty upset if they would open the servers early and i didn't have my game yet. Fully understandable that Trion will not open up before the set releasedate, it would simply be unfair to the ones less lucky then i was. And a global reset on launchdate after opening servers now? Why would Trion put up with more -unnecessary- work than they already did with producing this great game lol!
I'll be watching a lot of soccermatches this weekend, trying to ignore the unbearable itches, and be as patient as i can possibly can. April 2nd will come, and i will be there... For now some compassion with the less lucky ppl is in place.
I'm really beginning to get irritated with you people. Just because a company went against the rules and sent you a copy of the game before it was released, does not give you the right to play it.
The released date was set in stone long before you got the game (might even be longer than you had it pre-ordered).
You kids of today are all "want want want" and "I'm entitled", its pathetic.
Learn to wait like the rest of us
