Maviarab Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 Just curious...but this beta alone is almost 6gb? Jesus... What size is the full game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wills4223 Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 That isn't even close to a big game these days. I would expect 12-15 for the full game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havelok Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Generally speaking, in-progress builds are much larger than final builds because they contain waste assets and the amount of compression is not quite what it would be in the final product. Some alphas/betas release in a completely uncompressed state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maviarab Posted August 20, 2014 Author Share Posted August 20, 2014 Will's...I've been gaming for 30 years hehe..I know it's not. Please do not state the obvious. But this is not an MMO, or ME3, or Flight Simulator etc. It's petty basic compared to newer games really isn't it. I was asking as I run my games off a dedicated SSD, and was suprised that this 'small beta' was 6gb....so was curious as to the full game size. Havelok, yeah good point indeed. Cheers.

mrmonocle Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 I heard in some interview with Fergus that PoE is 400+ maps, bg2+tob was 200+ I see the dreams so marvelously sad The creeks of land so solid and encrusted Where wave and tide against the shore is busted While chanting by the moonlit twilight's bed trees (of Twin Elms) could use more of Magran's touch © Durance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrimeJunta Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 @mrmonocle That's not correct. BG2 had about 275 maps, and rather recently P:E had about 150. Source 1 I have a project. It's a tabletop RPG. It's free. It's a work in progress. Find it here: www.brikoleur.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dezlok Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 so merely speculating is it likely that the final map size will be atleast the same as BG2 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
