I'm not saying there won't be another download for sure, but the size of ex1 is 5GB, ex2 is 6.6GB, and ex3 after this download is 4.34GB. That all seems perfectly in line considering the first two expansions include two years of patch content each. The remaining 3.1GB or so would be for the main game files (new gear, mounts, job actions everyone can see even if they can't obtain).

The patch servers are probably in full capacity. Wait a bit and try again.

Yeah, all updates are through PSN now for PS4

That's sucks, but at least will be more consistent and we can set up to download automatically

Sometimes you just gotta wait it out.^

Hey Guys, is the Download on Ps4 XMB enough or do i have to Download any update inside the FFXIV Client like usually happens?. I want to sleep a little bit to rest before the lauch, but i'm afraid that i have to Download something later and miss some hours for that reason ( 10MB only, took me around 4 hours to download the 8GB Patch today ).

I got a relatively small download for my launcher, definitely not the 7-8gb download that others are getting. When I load up the launcher though, nothing else downloads. I'm kind of getting nervous that something went wrong, and wanted suggestions on what to do?

Did you log in at all, or just loaded up the launcher? I had a small update then had to login to the launcher to download the rest of the patch :)

I logged into the launcher, got the acceptance page where you agree to licensing, then it was the 7500~ some odd MB download and that was it ;;

You're good to go. 7500 MB is 7.5 GB, so that's about right. ^_^

I don't know if my game fully downloaded, I left it doing its thing and came back to a greyed out "Play" button that says "Game is unavailable during maintenance" I closed, opened again and nothing downloaded, just don't wanna find out I gotta redownload something later down the road.

That sounds just about right!

That's how it behaves after you have it all downloaded, but the servers are still down - in other words, you're golden!

Man it's only 7.5GB....I woke up an hour early for this?

I should've just stayed asleep...this isn't even 5 minutes.

It’s strange to me for such a huge expansion that it was only an 8.2GB download.
