How big is the download for Ascalon Arena? - Guild Wars Forums

josephtheterror · Aug 05, 2005, 08:08 AM // 08:08

I usually play this on my DSl connection, but I'm playing on 56k right now (with my laptop). It's at the download screen for Ascalon Arena and I was wondering how big it is. The reason I'm asking is because it has currently downloaded 13.7mb, but is still at 0%.

Well the video card is unsupported, but would that really mess this up?

no video card is unrelated

it's just an error

close and reopen the program and it would most likely be fixed

Well now it's at 18.2mb and 5%. I'm so confused. Should I just listen and reopen it?

dont download it

I got out and tried again but it's still doing it. I went into my other character that's in Pre-Searing Ascalon, and it's begun downloading normally. Why is Ascalon Arena screwy?

EDIT: Another question. How many files are there for Ascalon Arena? If it's 3669, then it's doing its job right.

When u goto a new area, it downloads all the files for that area *AND* it downloads files for any people in that area with a different armor than you have seen before--and if you are entering a wild area, it also downloads any stuff for any skills you have not seen before. So to say it is 3669 is kinda hard to say, as you don't know how much of that is for the area and how much is for the other people wandering around in there. Just let it download and go eat some cereal.
