Replays are taking up space on our PC's

They've added a solution in today's update! Thanks guys!

"Added a new setting option to “enable/disable” the replay feature. The default setting is set to “disabled”, which also may improve the game’s performance"

We need an option to turn off replays. I just realized that I had over 15 gbs of replays in my c drive. I searched the menus for a way to turn the replay save off but I did not see anything. I had to delete each replay one by one. Please give us the option to turn this feature off in the near future. It's not a big deal now because I caught it before I mysteriously ran out of space, For now we'll just have to delete them after we're done for the night I guess.

If it's a sudden black screen and restart, no blue screen, it's likely PSU related. Should this game be loading the system down as much as it does, probably not, but should your system be able to handle max load + a little extra as Nvidia allows over 100% power draw on their GPUs, yes.
I'm on a 4th gen intel system and I consistently get max draw on my entire system running some modern games and I have never had the dreaded sudden shutoff.

Ok. Total system power, combined with temps, defects, airflow, age and all that can affect max power output. PSU's also never output their rated wattage for long. Have to keep in mind what rails you have modern GPU's on as them being on a single rail could overload it. Transient loads are also becoming more and more of a problem for modern GPU's, quick microsecond spikes way above the GPU's rated power draw, but that will also set off PSU protections.

Regardless of setup, I have only seen the sudden shutdown issue NOT be a PSU problem once, and I couldn't find out what the issue was in that case. The guy just replaced the entire PC and of course it went away then.

Actually, could be the ♥♥♥♥♥♥ sense wires for the new Nvidia GPU's. They can cause issues.

The fact it took modders under a day to see the AI values had some double negatives and things were broken is ridiculous. Under a day! And the dev team had a year to do all this.
Major features are just missing or broken. Replays install on C, and crashed my game too. Trailers only seem to work in practice mode and are buggy anyway. No cutscenes, Recoil is jank, viewmodel in MP lobby is broken for clients most of the time, clothing clips with watches which yet again a modder fixed day 1. Don't get me started on the aimbot bit alone.

Man, hard to argue with you there yeah. I still hold out hope that the vast amouints of love their game got will compel them to greater effort and/or excellence. I didn't even know about this most recent replay fiasco and I will admit, while annoying like the last, it is also very funny.

What would happen if I just deleted the replay folder because I'll never watch them? Would it just make a new one?

It will, yes. The replay folder was never a thing before this update so it generated it upon making the first one. Programs will do that, make the directory if it doesn't exist.

This is ridiculous. On top of all the problems this game has, it ♥♥♥♥♥ all over your drive with replays that you cant even turn off? That's it for me.

And contributing to my write cycles, slowly deteriorating the performance of my SSD lol

Yeeeah that's the annoying part. How this is actually harmful, be it negligence or incompetence. Still kinda funny though.

what? there are no replay files in my folder, is this something you turn on and then can't?

Open start > run app, and paste this in..

%localappdata%/ReadyOrNot/Saved

You should see a demos folder, All replay files are stored locally in there :)

Just nuke the folder, or alternatively if you don't want files being stored there, right click the demos folder and set it to read only, it should stop the game from writing files to the folder.

Why not ask the player if they want to keep the replay?
Kind of strange.

Thanks a lot for the read only fix man, appreciated.
