Glad it's not just me. :P

I've updated the main post with:

So this patch was a gigabyte larger than it needed to be :(

This was due to a mistake in the build process which exported a lot of art unnecessarily. We have found out why this occurred and will be making sure that it won't happen again. We're very sorry about this :(

Another mistake... Nothing new...

Awwww. I thought you were starting to send us Ascendancy content :)

1gb patch or 10mb will be the same for me since i always need to download the full client every patch that is needed...

And i have no clue why , i've tried all fixes that ppl said on forums but nothing worked for me.

Maybe my steam hates me :(

1gb..2gb..3gb. Who care? :D i don't care :D

thx GGG for work!

Disconnected from patching server before patching completed. Try again.

thats all good chris, these things happen mate.

thankfully my net managed to chug it down at 23 meg per sec and we were back in pronto :D

If it's 1 gb larger than needed, then can't you patch the patch and make it the 10mb it's sposed to be ???

I'm okay with it. But I'm curious. Is this art that's planned to be used for future content? If so, this might actually make many future patches smaller as they won't have to add in the new art since it's already in there. Is this the case now?

Came here looking for the reason why it's such a large download.... 1gb of extra data downloaded and no change to that by the devs, doesn't sound suspect at all. Gonna take a look at what all was downloaded, don't mind me.

EDIT:
This is from the log, confirms that it is mainly art getting downloaded

Still not sure why this hasn't been fixed even though it's been caught by the devs. "Wont happen again" seems like an odd response to a problem compared to "We'll get this fixed", not referring to timeline.
