In the MMORPG Black Desert , the download for the beta is expected early in the evening.
Today, on February 16th, the download for the second Closed Beta of Black Desert should start. The client will weigh a little over 30 gigabytes. It is quite a package – especially since we don’t exactly live in the home of broadband coverage.
Many potential players got up early this morning, wanting to start the download in order to have the connection free during the day. But there was nothing yet. Even for breakfast and lunch, the servers remained cold. At 6:00 PM our time, it was tweeted: The download should start in the next three hours.
The client will be live in less then three hours… #notlongnow #sorryforthewait
