60GB Install!?
I haven't played since v8 probably. Apparently I will not, as this games footprint is outrageous. Nearly 60GB (57438MB)? In case you are wondering, that's in the top 10 of the biggest titles ever.

Is that a joke? It is easily the largest UE game EVER. For that you would expect at least the amount of content of smaller titles, you know like, The Witcher 3, or Watchdogs 2, or any AC title.

Want some more? GTAV was around 60GB, FarCry5, Shadow of Mordor, Mafia 3.

I'll stop, because when you are one of the largest PC game ever made created, you're bigger than literally almost every game I could think of.

Keep up the good work guys, you can be another Gears or War, XPlane, or hell, a Final Fantasy. Shoot for the stars fellas.

Its not in the top ten lmao not even close, you saying something doesnt make it true.
None of those games "are smaller titles" all of those are all aaa games...
Its most def not the largest game running on UE4 once again not even close, Ark survival evolved.
Gtav on release was 60gb, care to guess what it is now that they have taken years to add stuff?
Once again you are comparing aaa games to indie games. Not a valid argument.
They will keep it up and i applaud them for it.
Is there like some competition im unaware of where people compete to see who can whine about the most pointless thing possible on this forum?

Huh... alot of Games are 50+ GB nowdays damn Xbox one Games are HUUGE compared to most PC games. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ♥♥♥♥♥♥ Halo 5 was 107gb thats bigger then Halo Master Chief collection which is actually 5 Games in one ! Gears of War 4 also 100gb. Halo Wars 2 was smaller... just 45gb xD

Since mid 2010's Games became Huge man. Tekken 7 a damn fighting game is over 60gb.

Oh and there was this one Time where Gears of war 4 got some small update... you know no biggy https://qph.fs.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-a835f116f31674dc4734a63d919f2e18

I think that sound files take a ♥♥♥♥ ton of space. They could do something about it but you know...why would they

Umm, most games are well over 60GBs these days.
MatroVska Jul 29, 2019 @ 5:42pm 
long story this game will reach 100GB+

I see that you've only been experiencing with small scale games. For a game this size (content wise) 60GB is perfectly reasonable.

Also, smaller titles such as GTA 5???? You wanna do some quick math with me with player counts, sales figures, and dev team size?

60 GB is pretty normal these days with GTA V, Fallout 4, and Metro Exodus having file directors with just about if not more than that and with the increased need for large maps, and 4K this will only become more true as time goes on.

Lucky for you hard drives and even SSD are becoming cheaper by the day, save up and you should be able to get a 2 - 4 Terrabyte without to much issue.
Heh, it sort of sounds like your hard drive may be as old as some of the titles you've mentioned. There's a fairly good thread on Quora discussing some of the games that are large and, more importantly, why they are: https://www.quora.com/What-PC-games-take-up-the-most-disk-space

There's a lot of world to be seen in Squad, so there are always going to be some considerable sizes to take into account, especially if you start adding in modded content. We do try to let people know in advance by including 55 gb of storage space in the minimum requirements listed on the Steam.
