Steam update 25
Hello, yesterday before going to sleep i uninstalled eso from Steam since I don't have lot of free space on the disk. Now the game is avaiable to download but on steam is still 87gb to download. Is the correct download or it isn't updated?

✭✭✭✭✭Not sure, but at this point all you can do is download it and see. I have Steam and it's downloading the updated version, but I didn't uninstall the old version first. My download said 50-something, not 87, but I've still got about 23 remaining and it's only at 9%, so go figure.I've fought mudcrabs more fearsome than me!0 -
Dosuul✭✭✭Wasn't so wise to uninstall the game I guess, you should just have patched it.
Steam has an outdated version and needs to patch up from there, better would have been to keep the old client and patch it up.
Do you maybe have a backup?0 -

The mods aren’t usually on at 5am Eastern, nor are the community managers (who would have this info).
Best advice is to wait if you want to avoid having to redownload. 82GB is too big for this new update.0 -
Cardthief✭✭✭So, the reason this is happening is because when you install/re-install/verify game cache ESO directly from Steam, Steam will download the old version of ESO (back before ANY expansions or updates happened); this is because Steam itself does not have the latest version of ESO, only the ZoS Client does.
So when you install ESO from Steam, you get the old unpatched version of it, and the client will sort you out with the actual updates (and thus the new compressed version this update provides).

So question for the devs when they wake up will the update be released on steam soon so i only have to download the new 50+ gb game or better to download 80+ then redownload new update? Considering i download at 1.4MB/s speed....0

✭✭✭✭✭I really hate how ZOS was doing their messaging for all this. "You have to redownload the game!" That implies to people "uninstall/reinstall", which is completely false. And I can see from all the confusion from people in zone chat and on the forums that many people got the incorrect impression.
It's a patch. Just another patch. That happens to be very big so it will feel like you are reinstalling. But it's just a patch. That's what the messaging should've been: "Update 25 will be a super-big patch to download".
And, yes, people who uninstall are just making things harder for themselves. This is especially true if you have the misfortune of using the Steam version of ESO, since Steam first dumps an outdated copy of ESO on your computer from the Steam server (which, in addition to being outdated, also includes stuff like audio files for language that you don't use). And then after Steam does the stupid things that Steam does, then you have to download the actual current version from ZOS via the Launcher.Nightfighters ― PC/NA and PC/EU

I am downloading a clean installation of Steam ESO and the total size is just over 73 GB now instead of what was it 85 or 86 GB. I've already done this on another PC and the Steam version of ESO comes already patched. When you launch the Client it does a very small like 1 GB download and then it is ready to go. The reason why Steams version of ESO is larger than getting straight from ZOS is all the extra stuff for other languages etc. that you don't need.1
