Halo 5 digital is over 80gb on my bone

>73 gb

Digital and physical are the same size, so damn.

They stopped compressing shit to stop piracy. But damn, why the fuck Forza is 80 gbs.

uncompressed audio (there is separate audio for every name you can choose the game to call you), and the skyboxes.

90*
I got it for 6 bucks the other day and the game was 45 gigs while the update was another whopping 45 gigs. It was like 90.2 under the manage section and I only have the launch 500 gig (350 in reality) so I had to delete it quickly after beating it

>you need to download the game whether or not you pirate it or not
>bigger file size because of pirating

wat

I don't think you understand, they're competing with PC. They want you to be pissed off enough about all these issues so you give up and get an Xbone.

As we've already established, games are bloated as fuck on Xbone as well. Halo 5 is just above 90 gigs.

So that's why the demo was that heavy, but i'm talking about forza 6. But now that we're posting about Horizon 3 Does Cred Forums has a forza groups like /o/ does?

what the fuck

how? the game has barely any content as it is.

But they work. That's the plan, make Xbone look more attractive than PC.

It's not the bloated installs that got me to buy an Xbone. It was the fact that I use Linux and I refuse to use Windows 10 for fear of it overwriting my bootloader.

>Microsoft decides to put their games on PC
>Incompetent as fuck at it

i posted it wrong
>Didn't they stopped compressing their games to stop piracy?

That too. Microsoft is making PC gaming a hostile environment.

All these ISP sending e-mails about you going over your 'Allotted Usage' GB amount for the month.

I've done this for the past 5 years and they eventually stopped sending them.

>seventy-three fucking giga bytes
At what point exactly did AAA developers just stop caring about quality? I'd say around 2007.

>73gb
Fuck modern games. Third Strike is only a few megabytes and a better game than 99% of modern trash. Looks better too.

its funny that alot of times the crackers in the works. Usually compress the files so that the file takes up less time to get to your computer

What the fuck is in 73GB?

Western dev incompetence.

73 gigs of disappointment

My download reset like 5 times until I babysat the damn thing all day yesterday. I noticed that if much computer went to sleep mode then it fucked up the download.

Reminder to head over to the Gears /vg/

Every microshit windows store game is broken. Gears Ultimate Collection apparantly doesnt run at all

how's the dark souls ports treatin ya bud? Remember the one that was so broken that 1 guy had to remake the game himself for it to be playable.

73 gbs of big guys

I want this goddamn game too, but fuck downloading 73gb.

>
Good luck in you're general m80s

>73 gigs
WHAT THE FUCK IS SHIT SHIT

WHEN DID GAMES GET FUCKING BBC HUGE

I remember the shitstorm over RAGE being 20gb
now everything is 50gb+ and the games have in fact gotten worse
most likely not all on the disc
>smaller filesize because the resolution is smaller

>>smaller filesize because the resolution is smaller

I don't know shit about shit, but does the PC version come with larger, more detailed textures to accommodate the higher resolutions? Because if so, it doesn't sound like a dumb explanation to me.

>73 fucking GB.

The disc version of gears 4 needs to download a 11gb patch day one because the disc didn't have the space to hold the entire game. So the patch is just the rest of the game.

yeah but thats with constant updates and shit. base game was just over 50 or 60

Meanwhile DaS3 runs fine and isn't a bloated mess of shit that will probably run 20 fps on a 1080.

This is honestly the spoopiest thing for me about vidya going forward.

I get the feeling valve is afraid too and that's why they waste so much time and money on their meme OS that has literally no games.

I knew you were a weeb faggot

Why the hell was my download only about 54gb?

>all these poorfags with no storage whining about 73GB

that is like $4 worth of storage

Because you're playing on Xbone.

>73.32 fucking gb
Well holy shit it better have all of its cutscenes at 12k.

Wow so expensive!

I got a 4tb hdd for $100, if I did my math right it's about $1.825 of storage

>73gbs

Those assets better be sharp, varied and detailed as FUCK to justify that size. It isn't even like I lack the storage space or have any download cap, it's just the hassle of it.

>Microsoft think they're gonna compete with Steam

Except they don't though. They've expressed several times a desire to work together with Steam to distribute their games.

The problems arise with MS' hard DRM policy, and Valve's desire for MS to go fuck themselves.

Post internet speeds if you're so great

You best be using google fiber or its equivalent boy.

Why are you all so whiny

I kinda' thought the size was forgivable for Quantum Break.

Every single cutscene was rendered beautifully, and there was a lot of them on every screen in the game. I can understand how they can probably take 10-20GB total.

I have no idea how they managed to turn GOW into a 70+ GB game though.

That shit is beyond me.

"apps"
how are they fucking it up so bad again ?
have they forgotten what happened with windows live ?

What is that?on xbone?

No. Typically, not. But it does make me think that 4K support should be an optional download as to not burden the majority of people with assets they won't use and actually serve a purpose for people who actually do game at 2160p.

nope

>"i love eating shit and so should you"

>Nvidia scum
>Got key from Amazon
>Microsoft got full mad
>All GPU Keys revoked

I don't know why, but suddenly I don't care about GOW4 on PC anymore.

Unless they decided to use FMVs for it too. Even worse if they make it full 1080p FMVs or something. Why the fuck devs still insist on using pre-rendered shit when their in-game graphics are good enough is beyond me. Is there a reason to use pre-rendered cutscenes over in-game? If there's any user with technical knowledge, I'd appreciate any explanations.

>4 tb hdd
yeah enjoy your 2/3 failure rate or whatever the fuck it is

Pc?I call bs my doom folder is like 46gb and I remember gtav being like 60gb since I dont have it installed now

>GTAV
>185gb

What the fuck?

>73 gb
>80 gb

Holy fuck

>73 GIGABYTES
Remember when developers used to compress their shit?

>HDD bigger than 3TB
You (are pretty likely to have) fucked up.
>tfw small boot SSD, bigger SSD for games and pictures, a huge HDD for games/downloads, and one more HDD for shows/music

On the level of Jewishness, large game files encourage users to buy the overpriced 1tb or 2tb consoles

I agree. I can't fathom the need for this shit.

One of the biggest criticisms for QB was that it felt like it lacked player input. I don't understand how MS keeps thinking that LESS input will somehow make the game better.

That being said I can take a guess at it: the TV scene is currently booming. Netflix and HBO have proven that there's a real market for character-driven TV shows.

This is just MS trying to merge the game audience with the TV-show audience. The problem is that those two don't mix as one is an interactive medium and one is not.

>500 gig (350 in reality)
What? Why?
The OS doesn't need 150 gigs of space does it?

My nephew is barking at his dad for a new Xbox One because he only has 70GB left on his Xbox. He only has Minecraft, Minecraft Story Mode, Terraria, Forza 6, Rare Replay, Trackmania, and a few 360 arcade titles. I'm forgetting a Legos game or two and maybe one other. Every other fucking day that stupid piece of shit console has a 500mb update which is followed up by his games needing a 300mb update. Fucking joke of a company and console.

Surves them right for buying that shit game in the First place

It does, the Kinect is still biting them in the ass.

True. I can see what they were trying to do with QB and the merging was done well. It's just, as a concept, it doesn't work well because you want to have more input when you play games and that doesn't necessarily mean I just want to be able to make choices that influence the show or something like that. Sometimes I'll watch a show or movie and I want to PLAY it, not play a part of it and make certain decisions to influence the rest of it or some shit like that.

It might have worked well if the game was more of a game than it was. The thing is that the game part of it is also mostly cutscenes and just some barebones cover shooting whenever you do get to play. And the other half of the game is just watching the show with no input. So you get an experience where the interactive part of it (the game) has very little interactivity to it while the non-interactive part of it (the show) is purely non-interactive beyond pausing, rewinding and fast-forwarding it.

It just made me conclude that I'd much rather play the show parts instead of watching them.

I feel like my entire post is really going back-and-forth a lot and may be confusing. Ignore me.

why is everyone screaming how large the file is...

I thought more space used means they put alot of shit in it.

I remember MGS5 was not that big and everyone throw there shit in the air cause of it.

I hate you niggers

>"""""""""""""""Buying""""""""""""""""" """Games""" from Microsoft on "PC"

Because it no longer means that. We've had plenty of games over the past 2 years with large file sizes but are shit in actual content. Uncompressed audio and video files, using pre-rendered cutscenes instead of good in-game cutscenes, these all inflate the size of the game without adding any additional content to be played.

Except Xbone runs Windows 10 genius.

>>>>>>>>>"""playing""" (((Video Games)))

>made by our own shitposter lel
Cred Forums should make a game, one that isnt a weeb visual novel that is

Blame yourself for playing on PC
As long as you play on PC you will always have fuck ups like that.

Why is your Overwatch 126GB???

Why doesn't he just, ya know, delete some games to make space? Do people seriously keep games installed which they no longer play? Once I'm done with something or haven't played in a couple of months, it's fucking gone, m8. Recently deleted Halo 5 which freed up an assload of space.

>I thought more space used means they put alot of shit in it.
in what fucking world you live this is the case?
its always uncompressed audio and 500 other audios you wont evcer use
last of us? god of war? uncharted?
how many fucking languages they come with ?
i'm naming those because its the ones i remember seeing the select language thing

>I thought more space used means they put alot of shit in it.
Unfortunately this has never ever been true.

delete wow or wow ptr
will help you

Clearly it's 120 GB of Overwatch porn.

alright fine........AAA games suck go figure.

question is, which AAA game is the best?

>alright fine........AAA games suck go figure.
No you're just fuckin stupid m8 sorrrrry

>74GBs for the same game, but in 900p

bitch where?

quick make me smarter on which AAA game is the best?

PLZ RESPOND

>its always uncompressed audio and 500 other audios you wont evcer use
Source: My Ass

fuck off kid

desu I think windows is just fucking up, my GTA is only 60gb, not 200

Fuck me in the ass senpai

I'm not sure what I said that word filtered into desu
was it desu?

His source real life you stupid fuck. Just look at any game with a fuck huge install size. Ever since PS3 games came on bluray they just started throwing uncompressed audio on there because they didn't know what the fuck else to do with all the space on the disc.

you haven't played any game since the ps3/360 generation or you are shilling if you dont know that

Nice meme. Why would it stop piracy?

ok lets do it you fuck
lets look at game on my drive right now
black ops 3, 55gb,oh wiat, it dosnt even take up 10% of the 50 size
rise of tomb rider, 31gb, oh much much more, still only 30% for all language packs, not fucking most of it
black flag, 25gb, audio files take up exactly 2gb
Arkham knight, 40gb, audio and video files, 6gb

Couldnt figure out how much its in dragon age inquisition since its in generic packed files, but i think this is enough to prove a point
Only case i think this would be trou is GTA5, where there is hours and hours of music in qood qulity
fucktard

>Blame yourself for playing on PC

???

I got free stuff, then got removed free stuff.

I don't complaing about lost free stuff, I just don't care about a 70$ game.

I get 8MB/s downloads on Steam. So this thing will take a few hours, I don't see what the big deal is. Just let it download while you're at work/school/sleeping.

>All GPU keys revoked
Bull shit. They've had the promo running for months, why would they back out of it right before launch? Microsoft is stupid but they aren't that stupid.

IM CURRENTLY DOWNLOADING THIS SHIT FOR THE 4TH TIME AND IT JUST KEEPS CRASHING AND CRASHING AND I HAVE TO DOWNLOAD IT AGAIN AND 74GB TAKES 27 HOURS FOR ME FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

There's also an 11GB day-one patch so the game is actually like 85GB big

Does anyone think that M$ is fucking up their Windows Store on purpose?
How can a miltibillion tech company be so incompetent?

I mean just look every single game that launches on it was a fucking technical failure and all these filsized are just top kek. I think they want the normies to see that PC gayming is a hassle so they just go back to consoles.

>not buying a physical copy of a 75GB software

fuck this is why they took back the free 15gb OneDrive space

man why don't they just release on Steam

They just did with Quantum Break or whatever it's called and it actually works well

Microshit sucks major asshole these days. They are the epitome of what is wrong with corporate power. Makes me fuckin sick.

if you were old enough you would remember Games for Windows and that alone would be enough to understand.

Seriously i dont fet how windows closed their live market place and reopened it as if it was going to be anything different

>I got an Xbone yesterday I nearly had a heart attack.
Fixed.

Well first it was Rage being 20 gb
Then it was COD Ghosts being like 25gb
Then it was Black Ops 3 being 45gb
Then it was D44M being 50 gb

And now we're just spiraling out of control.

>it would take me 26 hours to download 73GB

JUST

GTA V is 65gb

Dont forget the 11gb day one patch :)

>73GB

My internet is too fucking shit to deal with this. It took me days, if not a week to download GTA V

Fuck, my mate has literal dial-up speeds. He's not going to cope or even bother.

>How can a miltibillion tech company be so incompetent?

That's just it. They literally don't give a fuck anymore. Everything runs Windows and normalfags will keep eating up whatever they shit out. They don't care about quality anymore. Just a buck.

This thread actually reminded me of a funny story concerning Microshit. I was invited by a friend to see the new TMNT movie. Everything was going fine, but about 2/5 into the film the screen suddenly died and the lights went up. We left the theatre trying to figure out what happened. Peeked into the server room which was next to our theatre and it turns out Windows 10 (which the server was running on) had crashed and needed to be rebooted.

Fucking incredible. Did get a refund which was good, the movie was hot garbage.

Why the fuck third world countries are getting gigabits connections while I'm stuck with outdated technology? REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

I don't think MS care about anything now besides collecting and selling information. Ad companies paying so much for this, they can just bail from videogame industry without losses.
Also, the reason why games are so bloated just because they don't wanna pay for expensive video and audio compression software and licensing. Just keep using some cheap shit, every AAA game in that store is like 40 gigs minimum. Quantum Break 42, GoW ultimate editions 52, now GoW4 73 and all this shit was made by MS studios. This is no coincidence for sure.

I had win8 at launch because of a work promotion, where they gave out free copies to everyone I worked with.

Man the app store was a fucking disaster, it totally soured me on using it. Honestly metro wasn't even that bad, I didn't mind it, but holy shit, it was that everything was a fucking app and couldn't be run from the desktop, it had to be it's own thing. There's no god damned reason.

Lmao typical amerifat tech. Meanwhile I'm sitting in my hyvää sauna with 5 gigabit fibre in the middle of the woods in bumfuck Finland :DD

Hey Rikü

enjoy your muslims and mongols

>Do a shitty as fuck job
>Nobody buys their games
>"Well, I guess the PC userbase wasn't interested in our games, so we won't be releasing games for this platform anymore"

enjoy your niggers and spics

>uncompressed audio

Why the fuck do they even do that? PCs have a shitton of processing power, so the performance difference is probably under 0,1% if it's decompressed while playing, which is completely retarded.
Usually games just decompressed while loading the map.
