So, whenever it is you install the game, your version will be the same as everybody else's. You can choose to disable future updates if you like but not with the initial install.

Is their anything on the DVD that is worth to install?
(that is, is it patch, or a full install? Or some special items included on DVD only?)

Should I just grab the activation code, D/L the game and go with that (so I do not waste time trying to install off DVD).


Yes, it is a surprise, but sometimes things happen and one has no choice.
Not angry.

I know I'm not luthier but I think I know the answer.

Either way you end up with Version, so it depends if you want to waste time downloading the whole game or just the patch.

Thats what I mean.

A 200 MB patch to the game will be easier to deal with then 1.2GB full download (I am guessing on size, but I expect it will be big).

And of course if their is items on DVD not on D/L.

Details are all the difference.

People who install, how big is D/L?

The DVD install will be faster either way.
