One thing I always imagined games would do is start using materials for basic things. Like material for wood, for cement, for dirt floors, etc. So a wooden floor doesn't have a wood texture, but the engine is able to recognize the wood material and render it correctly. Of course, this wouldn't work for many things, such as billboards, but I think it would be totally feasible for composing a good part of virtual worlds, but as far as I know, it's never used.

It would be funny if the game is 1tb at launch, so anyone with a base 1tb would have to delete everything to play it it. Anyone with less than that is forced to upgrade, and even then the future updates creep it up to tb. It'd be the ultimate power move Rockstar could pull.

doubt, whats your actual speed? either way you are still retarded for getting a 2gb link when you dont even use it, 200 mbps up is fucking retarded as well

I remember when I had 300kbps adsl, and downloading a 40gb game would literally take me days, as I couldn't just max out the bandwidth and make it unusable for everyone
then I got 1gbps fiber and zamn, it was too much so I asked to save 10 bux and get 500mbps
still is more than I need but it was the slowest speed available kek

It's sold as 2gbit/200, but I get around 2.5/300. And just because all you do is watch people play video games you can't play on YouTube, it doesn't mean people don't use their bandwidth.
Here. I switched it to bits. It fluctuates a little, but I stay above 2gbit most of the time.

>>733723393
Optimization is the reason why the games are big, you retard.
You all view optimization as this weird magical thing, but it's not. It's a series of tradeoffs.
Bigger size -> fewer cycles spent on decompression algorithms > better performance.
>>
>>733727225

every screenshot for GTA6 is what it will look like on PC in 4k with a 5090 not what you all will be playing it on console
>>
>>733726323
>But how do you optimize?
Easy, run some aggressive compression on your assets, have a loading screen which decompresses them and puts the assets into RAM (means you need more RAM in your computer, btw) and then have another loading screen once you've reached the limit of whatever was in your RAM.
Could cut down file size by 80% doing that.
>>
>>733733275
>instead of the assets being part of the game the assets would be part of the engine that comes with the game
Genius. Maybe they could use Terabytes instead of Gigabytes on top of that for a smaller number.
>>
>>733736390
But file size isn't the issue. Even with higher storage prices, storage still is more in reach to people than GPUs and RAM.
>>
>>733719938
I remember when my ps3 took like a full day (or 2 I dont remember which) to download gta 5 updates

Cutscenes are cheap in GTA since they're in engine. The models and textures are already there. You just need a script (which is tiny in comparison) and sounds.

>>733736106
so you are saying there is 200mpbs variance by changing from MB to Mb? sus
you keep saying you do a lot with it but then just post that you download games fast.
so you pay for 2gb so every now and again you can download a game really fast? because that is all you have proven and if so you are retarded as fuck
and no having more bandwidth doesnt mean your internet is faster, bandwidth is like how many lanes on the road so you can have more cars, it doesnt make the cars get from a to b faster it just means you have more cars on the road to move the packages
>>
>>733736882
My speed fluctuates, retard. Sometimes conditions might not be the best. That RE4 shot was from a few days ago and it was the highest I ever got. It wasn't as great today, but still better than your povertyconnection.
I posted game downloads because this is /v/. That's what's relevant to the conversation as well, since it's about a game download. Please try to keep up, Paolo.

>>
>>733737590
way to change your story since you cant think of one thing other than streaming or downloading games.
what im getting at is you dont utilize them, downloading a game every now extremely fast is not utilizing the service if 99% of the time you arnt using 10% of it.

also I know you are a retard that doesnt know shit since you didnt even take the bait with the netspeed test, but have fun with your big numbers retard lmao

no what im saying is that for internet bandwidth it makes no difference for the average user, you would know this if you were actually able to read what I have been saying to you but you cant through your tears of anger lmao.

also you are tech illiterate, comparing netspeed to GPU's is fucking retarded. poor people cant play 4k high/ultra settings for any games released this decade but people with slower internet can still play the same games online and off.
again since you missed it through your little tantrums, bandwidth does not effect speed so you wont get better ping on games
