They are dropping new builds constantly. Keep checking by opening your launcher occasionally.

You should have ~ 13 Gigs. Possibly a bit more. However, ya they are constantly updating the game, so expect to be downloading a small patch or few before playing tomorrow. Anet's always liked sleeping in multiple smaller updates rather than doing it all at once. If I remember corrently, GW1 (a 7 year old game), has only every had ~3 maintenance days.
You should have 12.7 Gb. Not over 13 GB. If you want to see how much space takes GW2 folder just right click it.
1 gigabit = 1 048 576 kilobits
Weird... mine shows:
13,390,751 KB for the .dat
Then again, mine's currently up-to-date, so maybe that's why. I did use the same client from an earlier beta, though, so that might also have something to do w/ it. However, I did a test login and it says I'm good to go for a few hours from now, so hopefully it works, lol.

There isn't a "right" or "wrong" way to play, if you want to use a screwdriver to put nails into wood, have at it, simply don't complain when the guy next to you with the hammer is doing it much better and easier. - Allein "Graphics are often supplied by Engines that (some) MMORPG's are built in" - Spuffyre
Make sure you keep that patcher updated! Last night I had a small update of patching 8 files and right now I opened the launcher and it is patching 58 files. For those that played the closed betas, you should know that ArenaNet can and has done several updates within a day.
I am sitting on 12.7 GB.
If you want exact numbers, as of 10:10 a.m. EST today it is sitting pretty at 13,713,032,752.

Strange - I am on 12.76 GB already but still about 25% of bar to go.

13.38 for me. I had a small update today.
I think the % includes download, compression and other things, not just a percentage of download.

Heh, I'm redownloading the client to a second folder just in case.
But yeah, I see that there is a big fat temp file that the downloader creates, so that is probably why yours looks like it's going to be so big.
It's very misleading and the final 25% goes real quick.
And yes, as others have said the complete download is just over 13Gb in size.
13.398.556kB
Atm, last updated 4+ hours ago i think
".Dat" file

Oh, I see now.
13,387,874 kilobytes. This equals 12.7 gigs.
So they are the same numbers really.

1 byte = 8 bits

I think people are just worried that the client may have patched wrong. After the issue w/ the website, I don't really blame them.
As others Said, 13.37 gb roughly...
