Why is the prepatch over 300 mb?

It's not like we're getting a new area like when Pantheon came out, so why is it that the new patch is over 300 mb?
The files for Angelic Burster/Buster herself shouldn't be anywhere near 300mb. Anyone want to explain it to me?

EDIT:
Patch didn't take very long for 300mb either.

It's because it has Root Abyss data.

[quote=ox0Shad0w0xo]@Ecyz Actually, evolving world came out after angelic buster. It was the same patch as the Warrior and Magician Hyper Skills http://orangemushroom.wordpress.com/2012/09/19/kms-ver-1-2-173-evolving-system-warrior-and-magician-hyper-skills/#more-4307

@OT I'd be careful with patching early. Nexon drops the ball sometimes with that and messes it up lol.[/quote]
Thank goodness. We better get it

I've noticed that we haven't gotten Evolving World yet Wasn't that supposed to come out after Kaiser but before AB? I was really looking forward to it...

Oh well.[/quote]

Well, if you're afraid, just go to maplestory.nexon.net, then go to the "Support" tab to the right, then click on "Game Client & Updates". Scroll down until you see the big download button for Manual Patching, right click, get link, paste to your browser, remove the extra text and change the 125 at the end to 126. Result = the same link I provided.

Looks complicated, so I'd rather patch the old fashion way.
Besides, I can do school while it's patching~

Right click, copy link location, copy paste in address bar, change the end to 126 instead of 125 delete everything that isn't usually in a website url.

[quote=Ness]It is.

You can download the patch and apply it earlier so you don't have to patch and wait when the game is up.[/quote]
