October 16, 20196 yr Those patch sizes are nearly the full game. Is that actually necessary? I mean it doesn't concern me as I'm playing over GamePass on PC. But, wow.

October 16, 20196 yr We're about a week from release and still no minimum and recommended system requirements listed anywhere for PC. When are those coming?
October 16, 20196 yr I'm taking off for TOW. The hype is real! "Too much of the animal disfigures the civilized human being, too much culture makes a sick animal."
October 16, 20196 yr Yikes. I'm excited for this game's release, but that 38GB day-one patch on Xbox is going to be a major inconvenience. I pre-ordered the game on physical media so I could avoid a significant download. But judging from the size of this patch, it's going to be the equivalent of downloading the whole game. I'm way out in the boonies and have to use satellite service for internet, so I have a data cap I need to manage each month (100GB). That day-one patch would wipe out 40% of my data for the month. I know it's a bit late in the game, but if there is any way you can guys can scale down the footprint for that patch, I (and I'm sure many others) would greatly appreciate it. Either way, thanks for all your hard work, and I'm sure the game will be amazing.

I totally second this. Hype is real, but if I have to buy a new OS (Win 10) to play it, it will definitely be out of reach for me. 😕
October 16, 20196 yr For how long post-release content (patches, DLCs, expansions) will be coming? (When can I purchase and download the game once? These launch-day updates are terrifying).

Nothing releasing anytime soon will probably be available for less than 10.

October 17, 20196 yr ^ That, and the Windows 10 upgrade is still free anyway. L I E S T R O N GL I V E W R O N G

October 17, 20196 yr I hope y'all know that Munich is not the capital of Germany... I presume the release dates for Steam are exactly 1 year after the ones shown above? I can only get it via Steam 'cause I'm on Linux. Like - all the time. It taking its toll... Deadfire Community Patch: Nexus Mods

Oh really? I really wanted to play it this year :C but alright I guess, thanks man 😀

Then my hard drive died, and the only OS I had to reinstall on my new drive was Win 8. 12 hours ago, Humanoid said: ^ That, and the Windows 10 upgrade is still free anyway. Oh yeah? Didn't find it when I tried to do it last time. I will go back to search it. Update : Thanks humanoid, I fonud it and now i'm back on 10. Game pass, here I come! 🙂 Edited October 17, 20196 yr by Sir_IZBAK_1st
October 17, 20196 yr Pulled in the 17GB "update" on Xbox last night. I expect another one just prior to release, but cleared next weekend for Outer Worlds exploration. I went through New Vegas several times, so hoping this space themed version goes really well.
October 22, 20196 yr oh, Seattle, near Redmond, I understand ... great map what a treat, 4pm the day before ... work never saw me leave so early on a Thursday also, PS4 pre-load begins tomorrow: backup for my abysmal inability at WASD; The Outer Worlds isn't, by chance, real-time with pause, screen-edge scrolling, is it ... All Stop. On Screen.
October 23, 20196 yr Will there be any plans to add a toggle option between third person and first person to the game in the future? Thank you.
