Arrowhead game Studios explained why Helldivers 2 on PC weighs so much – about 150 gigabytes. Despite the fact that the versions for the control panel are nearly three times easier.

Developers say that the whole thing is the need to double data to optimize the game in the old media, including the hard drive. The studio note that they do not know how much the player uses, but this type of carrier is indicated in the minimum system requirements. The game must suit them.
We cannot eliminate all copies without increasing the download time for mechanical hard drives 10 times and we believe this is unacceptable.
However, methods of solving problems are searched and even lying. For example, a group of developers found those duplicated data, eliminating not affecting the overall performance. Starting time for players with hard drives will increase, but not much. Without such consequences, changes are impossible, confident in the studio.
Earlier, Arrowhead General Director dispeled the player's hope to expand the hall. He noted that now the authors are working to improve performance, and the increase in the number of players per four will be very painful to achieve this index.
