I can't update my game.

[Jᴀɢᴜᴀʀ]

I've been trying to update those 5gb for about 4 hours, I can assure It's not my network because It has good speed, when the update "finish" It start patching the game, and then those 5gb turn to 34gb and when at the end of those 34 It just stops, and restart again.. and again. I'm not sure if my disk is the problem also, I've downloaded other games recently and all of them did just fine. It's been happening only with PUBG and for the past times the same thing, but this time It's just not working.

Krafton (world dumbest dev studio) decided to compress 34gb worth of files into 7gb archive. By downloading such "update".
Your PC first need to unpack it and then rewrite in actuall game directory.
The better CPU and SSD you have - the faster this suffering process will end.

Some mate of mine had the same in Apex so this is most likely not an issue of PUBG.

I can remember some issue about the Unreal engine and big updates but I need to ask someone to verify it.

Please perform a clean installation.
