Yeah, it's 3 CDs. If they are filled and compressed, then when uncompressed and installed it could easily reach 3 gigs. Not to mention all the patches/expansions that will come out eventually.
Not sure if you saying that to me...
Anyway they of cause wouldn't download an uncompressed version...
If it's 3 CDs it'll proberly be a download just under 2 gigs I guess..

Actually, Beta cd's are a little less organized, and are kinda hemmed together, so there is a good chance that there will be 3-5 beta cds.

I would think they will launch external beta not unlike E&B. The cost of producing the 30- to 50,000 CD's for a 10,000 person beta then publishing the final product just doesnt seem cost effective.

It's not like Sony is poor or anything. I'm sure they can afford to mass produce beta cds and mail them out and it would still probably be cheaper than putting up a server for everyone to dl it. The bandwidth needed to dl this game for that many people is insane.

The gun katas. Through analysis of thousands of recorded gunfights, the Cleric has determined that the geometric distribution of antagonists in any gun battle is a statistically predictable element. The gun kata treats the gun as a total weapon, each fluid position representing a maximum kill zone, inflicting maximum damage on the maximum number of opponents while keeping the defender clear of the statistically traditional trajectories of return fire. By the rote mastery of this art, your firing efficiency will rise by no less than 120%. The difference of a 63% increase to lethal proficiency makes the master of the gun katas an adversary not to be taken lightly.

Hopefully they can tweak the engine so that 512 megs of RAM won't be the MINIMUM requirement. Hot damn... I better upgrade to a gig just to be on the safe side.
