not only early in beta but even before it, EQ2 uses the same launching program (LaunchPad) and it has always had shitty estimated times, at the beginning you just ignore it, about 1/5th of the way thru you can probably trust it,but halving it may put you closer :P (how much it gets off depends alot on how big the download is, for small patches is goes over by a few minutes, when i first got into beta it estimated 60hrs at first and it was only 6-10) so ya, i normally just ignore the estimated time and look at the progress bar
