Can open beta client be patched to retail?

[Cernos]

Will it be possible to patch the open beta client to retail once the game is released?

I have my early access code from play.com but I really don't want to have to download the client all over again if I can help it (my broadband isn't the fastest).

Anyone know if the release client is a whole new download or if we can patch our beta client up?

it should only be a minor patch from OB to release client.

Yep - youd have to patch more from the retail client as its a little old now - just patch your beta client.

I should think so for pre order head starts
