imagine there's a new update for your online game that's 5GB, however you miss it because you're on vacation and the by the time you come home there's a new update that's 1.2GB. you only have to download the 1.2GB update and you'll have all the content of the 5GB update despite never having installed it.how the fuck does this work?
>>108026827because it's a live service model they're strapped for time in development and force players to redownload pieces of content they already have, offloading that time to their infrastructure rather than the developers may be cheaperyou just got lucky in this case that someone cared, just be happy that the whole game isn't deleted and redownloaded each timedon't play fartnut, but if you must play an online game find one that has either direct connect or community servers that: don't rely on third party authentication, don't require any contact info to host and don't have an annoying company telling you what you can/can't put on them
