other people have limited space with computers and it's pretty big to them. i'm also pretty sure this is almost half of the games' data. i'm not trolling, i'm just wondering why it's so big and why it appeared out of nowhere.

So as long as its not bigger than the game it's w/e. The vast majority of updates are file replacements with little actual storage size changes.

A certain game I played was like 1gb. One day, I explained to the dev in reply to a comment he made similar to this about my storage issues and why 1gb could be the difference between me uninstalling or not. He soon after updated again and started compressing files, and it dropped down to like <100mb. People forget there are people playing on toaster from 20 years ago still.

And many like me have very limitted transfer rates too.

And that sadly even in places with great internet, there are those of us just outside those limits that don't have great internet. Satellite internet at 40kb/s sucks - especially when you're 3-4 miles away from fiber, but they don't come out to where you live, and a double burn that you pay more than those who pay for the fiber....

What did it do though? Is it preparing us for a bloon chipper tower? I highly hope and highly doubt, but here's to hope.

The exact same thing happened for 32.2 and it just took a while for the patch notes to come out. Have some patience

do you not understand the point of this post.. it was questioning why the update was large, not why the update came out of nowhere.. i already expected updates like these i just wanted to know why it was large.

It doesn't matter what the update is. You will always be here to make the exact same post.
