That's... like... ALL my data for the month.
Therefore, I can't even bother getting it on Steam sale.

Update: Call of Duty: Ghosts Has 50 GB Install
- Thread starter MarlaDesat
- Start date
Just...how? Like, seriously. How can a game like this take up 50GB of space? I took a pass on Rage because I didn't feel like using up 25GB of my hard drive for one game, and at least that game had the excuse of looking goddamn amazing, and didn't it have that super-texture thing going on? Where no two textures looked the same or something?
Regardless, the amount of hard drive space required for this game is too damn high- and all that nonsense.

It's all super-high-resolution textures. They want to make sure that you can see every crack of the plaster lining each hallway you'll be trekking through shooting endless terrorists until you get to the next hallway.
Is that compressed or uncompressed of 50GB worth of data? Not that I'm getting it but you think they would compress some stuff, especially things like textures and video/audio which can eat up alot of it very quickly.
Each individual bullet for each individual type of gun is 20k polys with 4k textures. Guns about 250k per. Characters just shy of 1 mill. All of them will be textured with 4k res. browns and greys.
...World of Warcraft isn't even that big. Get out, this is just bloat and laziness.
I really need/want to dissect their shit and see what the HELL justifies this kind of crap.
Might actually purchase this game out of severe morbid curiosity because WHAT. THE. CHRISTCAKES.

25 gigs for IMMERSION (graphics), 13 gigs for the dog AI, 7 gigs for the fish AI, and 5 gigs for all that unimportant stuff the consumers demand (everything else). That's my guess anyways.hazabaza1 said:
OT: Seriously, this is absurd. That's a week DL for me (if I ever went temporarily insane and bought this that is). Haven't these people heard of optimization?
Considering AC4 which is also coming out on both current and next gen consoles as well as being an open world series is only 30 gigs, I'm thinking this is just a crappy port.
And I thought Black Flag was a massive install.

And despite that, there will still be at least one bug that causes him to landshark.rcs619 said:

This has to be some kind of type, they would have to be using stupid high res textures to be a full 50 gigs, even rage wasn't that big, in fact, I think think of anygame that comes close to that size. Even MMO's are at most just about half that.
Most of that space will be taken up by the uber-realistic face texture and animation. All the wrinkles, pores and individually animated facial hair. Unbelievable range of emotion.
Sadly, it will only apply to the protagonist's face in-game.
The more I read about next gen (and the coming PC hardware too), the more I lean towards buying an average quality PC and gorging myself on the past 6 years of games.

Ah it makes sense now, they had to add a bunch of empty space because none of the other programming wanted to be to close to the xboxlive player simulation program.Evil Smurf said:
