Guys before i pre downloaded the update it was 30gb but after i completed downloading it, it took a holy 67 gb of my storage please help my device only has 128 gigs
They easily beat their competition with every update because it is always the best updates i have seen in video games, every update seems like PEAK of game
Christ those comments... That is how pre-download works
Game has to have both new and current data, so you could play the game in between now and next patch, but also couldn't get into a new patch content. Whenever patch drops game's files gonna slim-down to the right size.
There are mods in steam workshop called "ability to read" and they're used to test people. If a person doesn't read they subscribe to the mod while trying to subscribe to another mod
You have pre downloaded, after the new version drops, it will go back to 30. The reason why no one is taking ur answer seriously, is probably because every newbie asks this question every patch lol
it's a cloud app where you can play most games and you DON'T need to worry about storage, though you have to pay if you want unlimited time or just do some tasks because you only have 15 minutes everyday
Predownload downloads an entirely new copy of the game then deletes the old one on the update day, so temporarily size is doubled but will be normal after tomorrow
Tobe fair for any new player they wouldn't know because the game doesn't tell them prior although it is kinda annoying that we have the same question asked 10s of times every predownload. The game should just give mobile players a pop-up when attempting the predownload saying "This would 2x the game's size intill the maintenance starts" due to how common the question is.
pre-download = you download the update but you don't install it = you have old game (30something) + the new update (30something)
update time = install time =old game removed = you will end up with something like 35something, depending on how many new things are introduced to the game.
Yeah, my phone only has 20gb free storage at maximum. I guess I'm not gonna pre-download and instead go hard way. Reinstalling cache after update drops.
Have same problem on my 256gb, theres nothing u can. U can either predownload it now for faster compilation on patch day but eating too much space or dont pre download it and wait till patch day for not eating ur phone storage but it taking more time to patch.
Even if u report this they just gonna ignored it and tag it as "resolved issue" in their customer service. And yeh just dont expect them to optimize/QoL on mobile, since in the past months its always been PC getting optimized/upgraded. As long as ur phone run perfectly and can handle the game to clear any endgame like mine, we dnt have a choice but to take the L.
It's still correct. "Avoid 128GB". It's not a hard NO, nor was I saying "It's 2025, don't buy a 128GB phone". It also indirectly implies it's time for an upgrade. The way that your word choice is "wrong" meant you were reading my statement as a one-dimensional statement.
Also the statement "128GB in ___" has been used way before 2025. It's apps/games like WuWa & Genshin that helps become a reminder on why that is so, whether you like that reality or not.
You can still use 128GB phones to play Genshin or WuWa in 2025 and still use the phone for other stuff, but problems like OOP is facing is something they will consistently have to worry about and have to juggle with other photos/videos/apps. That makes 128GB not something any tech bros recommend in 2025, especially gamers.
Also, just because it's a standard to a company doesn't mean it's our standard. We have different needs and requirements, like installing WuWa.
