Amazing how they evaded the when can we download addons question!!

3 Likes

My English hearing is horrible, so here’s the question:

What did they say about local downloads? I thought I heard that the game weighs 140TB? and that it seems that you will be able to download things, but again I didn’t understand.

They said that if they made all the 2024 content install locally in the way it works on 2020 it would’ve been a 1.4 TB install instead of a ~100 GB install, and that would’ve been too big to be practical.

They said nothing about individual package installs.

Nothing, the 1.40TB is for every addon on the MP. Which almost nobody will have. I had 700GB for a lot in 2020.

exactly, they say nonesense.

Marketplace will be available in early 2025!

140TB would be for the base game, not DLC

Even if that is so, you dont need every package and addon downloaded. It’s a non argument.

Where does the extra 1340GB of data come from compared to 2020?

I don’t understand.
