#Can the game be optimized more

With the game's size being pretty big, I would love if the devs took a cue from Helldivers 2.

Btw, I don't mean anything personal against the devs; the game is just WAY too chunky rn

Helldivers 2 devs slash install size from 154GB to 23GB, thanks to ...

PC players can now opt into a slim version that’s 85% smaller.

Yeah for God sakes, how would this be a bad thing?

That doesn't answer it

what is helldivers

  1. It's a cooperative third-person shooter

  2. You know damn well I mean file compression and optimization so stop being such an ass

Would be nice, but is COTW’s optimization issues caused by duplicate data to reduce loading times?

^ Dunno if the situations the same so hard to tell if it'd be as "easy" to fix the issue as it was with HD2. Iirc they were storing multiple copies of certain files to reduce loading times or something similar?

No sh!t Sherlock
Besides, imagine how happy people would be if they found out the installation size for CotW was chopped down
