As it stands right now PTS is just ~10GB smaller then live server. Is there something else in plans that will make it smaller by next 20GB to reach magic number of 30GB that was announced on live stream or we were just fed with marketing peptalk on stream ? Or maybe I am missing something and just certain versions of game were going to be smaller by 30GB ? Or maybe we just need to download 30GB less in U25 but game size is in fact just 10GB smaller then on live and it's intended ?

    Apparently the 30GB was for consoles and PC is only around 15GB

    So it is like 60 - 70 GB in total ?
    Also do keep in mind that you will probably need 2x times more free hard drive space (120 -140 GB ?) for the install - because the games needs space for the downloaded files and then to install them. So for a short time - you need 2x times more free space than game takes after install.

    I did not download pts myself as i'm on holiday but i've seen many people saying it's 56 gb now? It's actually 87 on live so looks like a 31 gbs save?

    Can it be the case that you removed German and French sounds previously but forgot to remove them on new pts? Those two are a total of 20gb or sth afaik.

    I'd like to see a proper info as well, as for the moment a bazillion numbers are floating around from different people and too little of them are similar.

    Just to clarify, the 30GB difference mentioned during the announcement livestream is what console players will likely see. PC will be closer to around a 15GB difference. Additionally, there are still some excess files that we need to clean up in a future PTS patch that will further reduce the current PC size by around 4.5GB.
