Default Release Package?

When the game is actually released will we have to install the game just like any other, or will we still use something similiar to the client we have now?

I imagine that when the game does finally go retail, that its current entirety as of that point in time will be on the (CDs/DVD?) to save on what would otherwise be a massive download time for people that haven't been playing along the consecutive BWEs / or just have a really slow connection. And from that point onward, the game would continue updating via the streaming the same way it does now.
That's just my take on it, but I can't see them shipping the game with just the tiny little client and nothing else.

Well this companies broken all boundaries in other ways, I wouldn't be surprised to see an internet download option for a slightly smaller fee or something where a box copy would not be required.

It's a much requested option. I think we'll see GW sold as a direct download at some point, but if they were going to go that route at release, they would have made the pre-order available long ago.

More on the Pre-order package...I was wondering if its a safe bet to get it at Gamestop. Just wondering this because Ive heard of some people having difficulties there and I'm very cautious about my money

Felix, You shouldn't have to worry about anything, so long as they already have a copy in the store, if they don't have one in, it may be a while before they get one. I did buy my pre-order from EB Games, but that is onloy b/c the Gamestop was taking too long to get the Pre-Order in, but I prefer Gamestop over EB in general.
