Default Should I download 16.7GB AGAIN?

I downloaded 16.7GB for beta test, which took more than 10 hours.

When I preordered the Digital Download at SOE, suddenly I doubt whether I should download those massive whole files again after official launching.

I mean, Should I download 16.7GB AGAIN?

You shouldn't need to. Your beta client should patch to the live client just fine. You will still need a live key though.

He has bought from SOE direct (as have I), I am pretty sure they automatically flag your station account without you having to manually add a key. Please let us know if this is not so.

What if we used a fileplanet key, they got a key from ebgames? SOE thinks my account is flagged with the fileplanet key with no way to change it

I had the same issue had a FP key and then did a pre order via EBgames.
At first it would not take the pre order key, then I seen the sticky on the vsoh forums for people having pre order key issues and that did the trick.
Send a message via ICQ to Jovena

I am surprised that they are using a cookie based approach instead of a dynamic serverside approach to this. The page could use some work.

No live key if you bought from the station. It just flags your account and you should be able to log in and patch/play.
