    WoW file size

    Hi all

    I didnt have enough space to download the new patch, so I got a mate to copy the client.....its 55 gigs....is this correct????? or will this unpack itself and end up smaller around 30 gigs.... after its cleaned uop files?

    Thanks

    There's a discussion on this here, but yes, it does unpack smaller. The better question is how you're having HDD space issues in a world where you can buy a 3 TB drive for $60.

    You are so efficient about everything. Just can't believe it. You should make a guide about it.

    You can't even type a proper sentence that has more than two words? I must be right about you. Anyway, it's off-topic.

    I don't know, he says I'm mad so I agreed on being mad. You can remain confused.

    WoW/HotS/DiabloIII alone take up 80GB on my main drive, Steam folder much more. Generally I keep the stuff I play regularly installed.

    Many people don't do this because of bandwidth limitations that exist in many places with limited ISP choices...


    But seriously, what otaXephon said, just buy more storage, it's extremely cheap.
    A gun is like a parachute. If you need one, and don’t have one, you’ll probably never need one again.

    WoW on a mechanical HDD? *throws up in mouth*. I don't think I've tried that since TBC but I can't imagine it being much better simply due to the physical limitations of the technology.

    im pretty sure hes following me around to yell at me because he dident like that i said mythic should not be a que, and the reason why people ask for super high ilvl in mythics is because people have done it hundreds of tmes, and just want to get it done, so they rather not risk bringing lower ilvl's... and well i you wanna see it all

    http://www.mmo-champion.com/threads/...Dungeons/page9

    I have some sympathy for laptop users since sticking in a 2nd drive can be a challenge on some of them. For PC and MAC users, I have far less, since adding a 2nd drive is pretty darn simple and cheap to add

    Yeah, but you said "I'm superultramega deep mad right now" with colors! I was actually just making a joke, mainly because you used colors and it made me giggle.
