Requiring the second patch makes things simpler for ccp. I’m assuming that the first patch is the same rev as the retail box. Requiring the second patch makes things simpler for ccp.

I would be very surprised if the client in the boxed set didn't require a massive download patch of it's own. It had to go for pressings 1 - 2 weeks ago? How much has changed even in that short amount of time? No matter where you get the client, I think you are looking at a serious download marathon ahead of you, not including the amount of time spent waiting for it while everyone else is doing the exact same thing. [Disclosure: I'll be in line to download it just like everyone else. :p ] And given the relatively late stage in development/deployment.

Not sure why though, since I'll probably install the patch before I manage to get my lazy ass out to the store anyway...
