Well, what do you expect?

Technically, your on a "smallish" island, theres not alot of content to worry about, other than the norm which is -: AI, Textures, Models etc....but there isnt like 10+ enemy types & 15+ skins etc etc.

I expected the file size to be small, but its the impact of the gameplay im keen on.

We were talking about this on the community chat :P But YAY!!! Fast download = Fast play!

i would rather have a small highly detailed island than a large bland world

skyrim had only 4 at release, and it is one of the best and most filled games out there. but jeah, 1.15 gb are not much today. hey, we'll see.

That is teeny tiny! It will download in no time!

Remember guys, they compress the game before they upload it to steam so the size of the game when you download it is smaller than the game files generated when you start the game.

Titanfall made the mistake of not compressing the game, and it came to a whopping 30 Gigs.

Agreed %100. But isn't there a vast underground cave system?

Less vast than the surface. I think vast is the wrong word, it's probably not as big as people would imagine, but I'm sure it will be big enough, with plenty of time to expand throughout the alpha.

Thats 1.15 gb compressed probably, the store page says the game requires 5gb hd space.

Id assume thats max through some of the development.

Oh thank God. I start work when the game is released. At least I'll come home and only have to wait a bit for a download.

How big is it now in 2k17?

[Punani]

Something similiar. Somewhere between 1-2 GB's if i am not mistaken
