Zombiedrd Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 My buddy still has an original Xbox with the 13 gig HDD. No Armored Kill for him. With CQ, Karkand, and the Patch, he doesn't have enough room. This game is a massive memory hog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastNcurious Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Lol. When the thread title said "memory" I thought you meant RAM, not storage space. And how big are each download? I thought they were <2gb each (I'm probably wrong). You listed 4 things there so that should only be 8gb max... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walter B Willis Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 There also have been a few other MP updates (4 I think) that were about a gig and a half a piece, not to mention the texture pack, as to the OP tell your friend to go buy a used 60 gig, they run like $25 or so and I doubt MS paid EA to do that as DICE developed this game primarily for the PC becaus BF is a PC first game and I'm not a fanboy or anything, but lets face it PC graphics>console graphics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WOLFkraut Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 My buddy still has an original Xbox with the 13 gig HDD. No Armored Kill for him. With CQ, Karkand, and the Patch, he doesn't have enough room. This game is a massive memory hog. Do you mean "storage"? Memory usually refers to RAM, something all versions of the 360 only have 512MB of. Anyway, yeah, I only have a 20GB HDD on my 360 too (next gen will be here sooner than later, so I no longer see a reason to upgrade). It's annoying, but I have two 8GB flash drives on my Xbox, so I have just barely enough space. You should tell him to buy a few of them, they're really cheap and you can use them for other things, too. I do think DICE could do a better job with the content, though, from my experiences with PC gaming, most games compress their files, but it seems BF3 doesn't do this and everything is just its raw size, I mean 1.44GB for a few tweaks and bug fixes is absurd.

secretkaos187 Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 I think you/friend are abit off base. As are most conspiracy theorists are. Why not Just upgrade the HDD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callumpy Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 The game is definitely a massive storage hog, but I doubt its some evil plot to make people buy hard drives, its more likely something to do with the crappy game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombiedrd Posted September 11, 2012 Author Share Posted September 11, 2012 I think you/friend are abit off base. As are most conspiracy theorists are. Why not Just upgrade the HDD? Because we are poor and can't go and buy on a whim. Only reason I have a Slim is because I won it in a bingo game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timmeh Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 So you're too poor to afford the hard disk upgrade (which you can get for about the same as a game, if that) but you have enough money to have bought enough games, or spent enough on rentals to hit 100,000 GS, and to pay for Battlefield 3 Premium or the individual DLC?

Rapturous Rich Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Where's the "conspiracy" part at? Or did I miss something? Microsoft pay EA to make huge DLC packages. People with small hard-drive 360s are forced to upgrade when they run out of storage space, thus MS make money is the general (if slightly satirical) gist I got of it.

Opiate42 Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Between the updates and DLC, it's fucking massive. I've had to clear out my HDD a couple times and still not sure if I'll have enough space left for the remaining DLC. Only have the old Jasper rig with a 60gb drive. Haven't even dropped Skyrim in the drive yet.... sheesh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombiedrd Posted September 12, 2012 Author Share Posted September 12, 2012 320GB HDD - $130 Won't break the bank, hell get a fucking paper route or start mowing lawns. I have bills to pay, loans to clear up, rent to dish out. I do have a job, I just have a strict budget for my self. http://cdn.memegenerator.net/instances/400x/26625924.jpg Don't underestimate the power of old people games.

Dog Face Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 What I said is relevant to what you said. I don't think Microsoft had anything to due with it. There game is buggy and needs a lot of fixes and the DLC maps are big needed more HDD space. That's all there is to it. And my name doesn't come from there. I've used this name for close to 10 years now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
