When I install JTLS from the CD that I'll receive, will it...

(a)actually install the expansion and then just patch any bugs that have been fixed since the CD was made?

OR

(b) make me download the whole expansion, with the CD only being a launchpad activator or a way of getting me my JTLS access key?

I guess I'm curious because it seems stupid to package up and ship out a box and CD only to get us a key that will allow us to download and play the game.

they made us download 600MB for beta.

I remember reading somewhere that we only download what everyone needs. The CD holds all the JTL specific files (space, ect). You will have to install the cd to play the game. Otherwise you will not have all the files.

People who dont buy JTL will have the files that we all need. They will not have the files on the CD.

Yep, beta was a full download 1gb or more in size. Here's hoping the final release is all on the CD, less the obvious pile of fixes/patches that have occured since the CD was made.
