    Honestly,I think all you'll ever get is menus until it finishes.

    Can't really remember though.

    I have no idea. But somewhere along the road you can start to create your character (which is basically finding a face) and play Brooklyn. Which is the tutorial part of the game...while the rest of the game downloads Manhattan. If that is not downloaded before you finish in Brooklyn...you can't proceed. So take your time in Brooklyn.

    And that's all what i wanted, playing the tutorial while waiting for the download to finish up, i thought like it was like Blizzard's games :/

    As it's been a year since I installed the game to my ps4 hard drive I am unsure.

    Thankfully I didn't delete it so I didn't have to sit through a lengthy re-install, but I'm trying to wrack my brains.

    Would it be that you get to leave the chopper, after the opening "cinematic" with Faye Lau, and head out of the camp and up to the BoO and that's it?

    No missions, no icons on the map?

    I am guessing, but whatever the situation you shouldn't have that long to wait should you, assuming your Internet is okay and your bandwidth isn't being compromised?
