Are there any plans to change the updates system of the game so that patches touched only game files that have been changed, but not absolutely all game files, including those that have not changed with the release of the game? Each patch, each fix I must spend a lot of time waiting for the GoodSync synchronizes my client installed with its backup on an external HDD, each time the game is absolutely all program files GoodSync seen as affected and changed, even though there is nothing changed. Why touch what is not necessary? It is time to move on incremental/differential update system, you have the same each patch affects absolutely all files that a patch for some reason, even it's stupidly change file dates such as introductory videos and other cinematics. What for? Why?

    Patches do only touch game files that have changed, otherwise you would always have a ~50GB download every time.

    You don't read or don't understand. Patches touches all files. Patches changes all files dates. Not change data (and no need download every time), but changes dates. Windows has 3 parameters of date: file creation date, file change date and file open date, one of this parameters touches every patch that cause GoodSync thinking that file was changes, but changes only date. It's wrong and this is what I asking. For what patches changing file dates?

    Is this a troll post? They are not going to change the update system for one person who is inconvenienced.

    This is troll post only in your mind. I just asking why updates change file dates and don't ask to change update system. And I check other online games - they don't changes dates on files while updating.
