mysteryboyee Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 That won't be too bad. My Max Payne 3 install is 30 GB and I downloaded that in about two hours tops. So another 5 GB shouldn't take longer. On Steam, anyway. And my internet isn't even that good. The peak is like 3.0 MB/s. Stays at 2.1 or 2.5 most of the time (again, according to Steam). idk where you live but 2-3MB/s is VERY good where i live (i personally get about 6.8MB/s) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDeathRises Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 My guess is at 30GB, with the Steam Download being smaller because of the way Steam handles downloading (I don't know much about it, but I recall that Steam compresses files for downloading. Say, you want to download a 10GB game, you probably will only download 5-6GB.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braindawg Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 With the statement from IGN that the game got over 3000 new animations for weapons alone, I'm guessing it's gonna be over 40 and not more than 67 GB in total. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arvark Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 I just hope the download size isn't that big, like 30GB it's enough, I could download La Noire in a few hours (and it's 25gigs) at 1.5 Mb/s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Hat Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 (edited) 40GB is what I support. 30GB, hmm... a bit too low I suppose, after all the new animations and stuff. 50GB? Nah. So 40GB it is. Edited November 11, 2014 by Kevin3014 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braindawg Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Don't hope. Be realistic. if Max Payne 3 was a LENIAR game with no animals or pedestrians or vehicles, that took about 29GB(says 35) GTA V in an OPEN WORLD sandbox with vehicles, animals, pedestrians, weather etc... it's gonna be twice if not three times the size.

Evan-KCR Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 40GB is what I support. 30GB, hmm... a bit too low I suppose, after all the new animations and stuff. 50GB? Nah. So 40GB it is. Uhm, I think the game will be 48 GB on new gen. So 50 would be realistic for PC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDeathRises Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Changed my mind. My money is on 35-40 now. Depending on how well soundfiles etc. are compressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedIndianRobin Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 LOL! All you guys have to wait for the game to download. While I'm going to get the physical disk and enjoy the game early. And yeah, Hope you don't get screwed downloading. Conclusion:I don't care whatever the size it's gonna be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDeathRises Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Hopefully the preload doesn't begin just a day early if the game is really 40 gigs or bigger, because I sure as hell won't be able to download that then. I think 5 days would be best, but I might ask for too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
droidrzrlover Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 I would say about 15 gigabytes considering the size it is on the consoles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDeathRises Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 I would say about 15 gigabytes considering the size it is on the consoles. 15? That's smaller than EFLC. Maybe the compressed download file. but definitely atleast 30 when installed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMcSame Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Just saw the game on the XBL store, the size of it is 42.44 GB. 50GB doesn't look like it's as far off as people were making it out to be a few weeks ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but they could still be tweaking it and adding a few new features in. After I saw it on the XBLS I figured it would be around 45.30GB after release?

ItsJustMeSrsly Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 I'd rather measure this game in "hours" myself, because that's what i think makes a "fun game"! Now i'm not saying that "quality" should suffer, but with games like these you actually expect a fair balance between these two! As for how much space it will require well...It won't be more than 20-30 (at least on PC) and its quite a lot if you think about it! But like i said size doesn't really matter! I've seen several games, which took about 7-8 hours to complete and were rather err...Uninspiring to say the least, but the same time their size usually ranged between 10 and 20 gbs!...

laiod Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 (edited) I could have sworn I heard 50GB so I will stick with that. Edited November 12, 2014 by laiod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDeathRises Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 40GB for consoles was confirmed and preload started. If that amount of preload time is on PC, I'm gonna get it on Steam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dronez Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 40GB for consoles was confirmed and preload started. If that amount of preload time is on PC, I'm gonna get it on Steam. Actually PS4 is 55gb. So i'm gonna say 50-60gb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I know Farming Simulator 15 did it) A day one patch to make the game playable? I'm sure there's pretty damn many people out there without a Internet connection planning on buying this. How would they be able to play at all? Also, there's no point in doing something like this for Xbone and PS4, there's currently no way to run pirated games on them.

My bad I'm sorry, are you comparing the best game ever created for consoles to the worst game that was ever thought of? I know making fun of Simulator games is one of the best past times, many people are ironically playing them just because the game is aimed at a very selective group of people. That said, these simulator games are actually very well made and in comparison to some other developers, they're even better. It seems especially Germans enjoy these types of games.

Personally, the only simulator I enjoy for reasons unknown, would have to me OMSI 2. It has the most minute details in it, which I always pay attention to. It is also one of the most breakable games ever, so it is also fun in that respect. Farm Simulator is just one of those things that everyone makes fun of because of its boring point, and horrible physics. They are aimed for a select area of people, but not most of population actually takes the game seriously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "breakable" aspect goes for most of them with the wonky physics and bugs that can be triggered by the player. These developers don't expect the majority to pick this up or be excited for the next release, they're making these games because there's simply no competition and there's a lot of potential for new games. I actually have some friends who have currently logged over 20 hours in the latest Farming Simulator 15 and are genuinely enjoying it. Edit: Okay, so I gotta make this post relevant to the thread before it gets deleted. 48,76GB on PC, called it.
