Steam forces the install of every version you purchased (except beta because steam doesn't sell or control the installation of beta, frontier does) so through steam it installs both 32 and 64 bit versions thus the 17GBish install. If you install the 64 Bit Elite Dangerous you'll be able to play all 64BIT versions (horizons if you have the expansion)īETA versions have separate installs altogether and it has frequent updates that vary in size.Įach one (32 / 64 / beta) has a 8.5ish (at least last time i checked) footprint.
If you install the 32 Bit Elite Dangerous you can only play the 32 bit version If you use the launcher for the game you have these options:Įlite Dangerous Horizons (only if you own horizons)Įlite Dangerous Horizons - Guardians BETA Įlite Dangerous - Passangers BETA Steam forces the complete package installation. If you use the launcher directly instead of steam to play elite dangerous you can install only what you are going to play, and the updates are smaller than a full game. I also didn't realise the new update was that close - I knew it'd been in beta for a while (still subscribed to the ED newsletter) but wasn't sure when it was actually dropping. We've already used it once this year, though, and we'd rather leave the second one til November at the earliest. And, twice a year, we can get an extra 200GB added to the month for free. I've no idea if my ISP or any others offer better deals in our area but it does mean I have to manage my internet usage a bit.įortunately, we don't pay extra if we go over that cap we just get throttled back to dial-up speeds.
Thats realy cheap if you love puters and games ,wow Biggest contributor is that I'm in Australia (the land of lethal-yet-adorable wildlife and overpriced internet) and the plan is a combination internet-and-landline-phone plan.
wow realy ?im baffeld ?realy do players realy use ,sush internet wow ? ,im im ,ermm Originally posted by Shadow88:Anyone know how big a download the game is for a fresh install? Thinking of finally re-installing this but we have something of a prohibitive data cap (200GB of downloads and uploads per-month) so I'm trying to decide whether to do it this month or leave it til next.
