Fair enough. I don't keep patches around precisely because bandwidth is cheap.
I was just stating that of all the people I know, I'm among the slowest in having only 3MBit DSL. Even extremely rural areas have high speed access here, not to mention that even mobile internet is currently up to 7 MBit (with a few offers at 14 MBit).
How about at least offering an all-inclusive update to the latest major version (in this case, 4.0) for re-installs?
Even in the world of Shrapnelgames, SP is the ONLY game that requires users to download a bunch of patches instead of a single one.
