  It's two hours. Is flipping out and nexon bashing really necessary? At least they had a sense of humor about it.

  
  
  yes but for people that need to spend 8 hrs downloading the client.... based on events even though its just an event their still cheating people out of the time they pretty much promised..
  
  at least i downloaded the CB version (even though i didn't get invited to CBT)

  People that need to spend 8 hours downloading the client a) have a ****ty connection if it takes eight hours and b) can find the cb client download if they want it. It's not that hard.

  This is kind of what I was thinking. At least it's better than just releasing it without fixing it ._.;

  Whatever Nexon promises comes with a 25% guarantee.

  Releasing OB is not the same as releasing a patch. Patches may have to be rushed. However, it's like they forgot to do this until the night before.

  I just hope it doesn't turn out like Vindictus, where some people couldn't even log on.

  Oh god, you've jinxed us.
  I bet downloading/patching speeds will be god awful when it finally opens..

  If this was the only occurrence it wouldn't matter. However Nexon has repeatedly failed in keeping their game up and meeting their given times. For all Nexon games, unscheduled maintenances (often 2 hours+) are not uncommon and even then they are often extended an extra hour or two. In the past Nexon managed to let a Mabinogi server crash for 30+ hours and even left Alexina to be completely unplayable. In response to the "memory leaks" of Mabinogi servers, they put up a video where they laughed at the situation and then said "Well we released so many updates but I guess some people will never be happy." It would be great if everyone flipped out and called Nexon out on their bull **** because they continue to let their servers die. After each crash people just forget or say things like "It's a free game." Instead of joking about this repeated issue I want to see some acknowledgement or a serious response. Even though Riot games is notorious for letting their servers die on patch days, at least they own up to it and provide time stamped information about the ongoing issues. They learned from their mistake two weeks ago (let a server crash for a day) and delayed the champion release so that the servers can be opened on time (and they did).
  
  I was at least hopeful that DragonNest would get so much attention from Nexon that the servers would be great, but apparently that's not the case.

  OB client has been up for a while now.
  
  I'll just say that it's V05.
  The rest is extremely easy to figure out, since Nexon uses the same download directories for their files.

  Figure out the URL.
  DN CB client 2 has always been out. It's only until recently that people figured out the URL.
  
  I believe someone posted the URL to V02 earlier. The newest one is V05.
  
  Also, it is up on Nexon's website. Safari > Top left > Arrow > Dragon Nest. I tested on FF, IE, Chrome, and Safari. Safari was the only one that worked. Not sure about Opera, etc.
  
  Of course, this wasn't intended, but it's there.

  whatever the case is, it's not worth redownloading imo..

  Took me an hour to download because of people releasing it all over Nexon's forum.
  Patching will take you a while, so downloading in advance is always better. At this point, it'll probably be better for you to patch.
  
  But then again, to each their own.

  I clicked the downloader button (even though it's greyed out) and it started downloading it through the downloader. o.o
  Guessing it works.
