As in title would I need to re-download game or can I just patch the beta?

You're going to need to re-download.

Devs have said that it's REALLY important to delete the beta before trying to download the Live client. So make sure you do that or else it could cause problems.

Yeah, delete the beta client or you'll wind up playing EQ2

Just for giggles....Format the entire Drive!
Re-install Everything.....it's a great way to kill time :)

Heh...killed a couple of hours on Sunday doing that.
Specifically to make sure that all traces of beta were gone seeing as the uninstaller didn't exactly work and so I hopefully don't need to jump through hoops with any trash left behind when it goes live.

Would love to chaingun down some Elves. But that is just a "fantasy". ;)

For those of you that want to try and hack the ini files to not have to download as much don't. You'll hose it.

You won't save yourself time either. Everything has to be redownloaded anyways.
