Is it necessary to download both, Story/Invasions and Story(4k)/Invasions(4k)
I dont know if it's the same on the Steam-Version, but on Xbox, where I am at, there are 4 files you can choose to download:

- Invasions 9.5 GB
- Invasions (4K) 10 GB
- Story 27.6 GB
- Story (4K) 47.7 GB

Does someone know if the 4K-files only include the higher resolution textures/assets so you need to download both, the smaller files as well as the 4k ones, or do the latter ones include the game-files too, so theres no need to download the smaller files as well?
We dont have fast internet here so I would like to know if I can just save myself the trouble of downloading the smaller files.

I hope it is clear what I mean. And thank you in advance.

I cant tell you 100%, as I dont have this game on Xbox, but given the information you have provided, I highly assume its not necessary to download BOTH Story AND Story (4k), same for Invasions. I cant imagine the 4k textures are almost twice as big as the whole Story AND FullHD textures, so I'm sure the 4k files include the gameplay files as well.

The 4K files I think are just the cinematics and not the core data files.

If that's true, then that would mean the 4k cinematics are almost twice as big as the data files AND the fullhd cinematics. It sucks that the game is not very clear on that.

Why should it be clear about something the is logically clear? 1920x1080 = Full HD, 4096x2160 = 4K.

4096 x 2160 is Cinema 4K (DCI standard)... in gaming and TV, 4K corresponds to 3840 x 2160 which is basically 4x the pixel count of 1080p.

Yeah i know and it is still logical that 3840x2160 needs more space then 1092x1080 right?
