Forums - Sony - Downloading Bloodborne, 40 GB on PS4, Sony should really compress their games like Steam

But how is Bloodborne 40 GB for you? Mine is 30.04 GB with all the patches installed.


You sure? there are three files, the 30 gb one the "small" one and the update. 

 

You can play the small one until the game finishes updating

Yeah my total size for the game is 30.04 GB but I just remembered I'm using the disc version not the digital. 



I disagree. Downloading 50 GB is done in one hour on my end. Decompression on the other hand can take AGES. At least on PS3 it almost killed me waiting hours and hours for those stupid games to install. Like Hitman: Absolution. Downloaded in less than an hour, but it took 2.5 hours to install that shit! If stuff like that gets faster without compression I'm all for it.

What speed is your fucking Internet?

Or, they could get faster servers...

I get 30-32MBs on Origin, Steam and GOG, Sony severs are terribly slow and eve system updates can take 3-4 minutes to download and some patches in the 1GB region can take over 20 minutes.


See, your fast swedish internet doesn't help you much with that, does it?

Not on the PS3, it doesn't. Luckily; I do 99% of my gaming on PC!

200 Mbit/s. But the PSN barely ever uses more than 100 Mbit/s. =P

I have 250, but I've never seen my PS3 download anything at a speed higher than maybe 3-4MBs, percentage-wise it appears to be utilizing the same bandwidth that my last connection did.



I've never really tested the download speed of my internet vs PSN, I just click to download things, go make a cup of tea or play another game and come back to it later. This said, I really do think that companies need to start compressing their data. Yes, it's fun to be able to fill up the disc on a Blu-Ray but when it installs on your HD, what's the point? Compress the sound files a little, please.



Hmm, pie.

Are you using WiFi? Because that is really slow on PS3.
