I have a ps4 the older version. Everytime the last few fifa 20 updates have been a few gigabytes in size each. They say they have fixed like one thing and that is it so why is the update so big?

I read this the other day, someone said it's down to the file structure. So we are probably downloading files again that haven't been changed in order to apply the update

Its not just EA most if not all PS4 games have this problem. The larger the game due to updates, the longer following updates take. I have this issue with Destiny 2 all the time. As long as you have the HDD space available, keeping the console in rest mode with automatic updates enabled should prevent the ridiculous waiting times for updates http://www.pushsquare.com/news/2020/03/guide_why_does_ps4_copying_update_files_take_so_long May the NFOrce be with you always.

Full game (SP, MP, Spec Ops + Warzone) is indeed huge.
Also, it gets weekly 30GB updates Very Happy

That's why they need the hyper-super-powerfull-galatic SSD in the next one...

Sounds like they need to offer a few free tb's in this new one.
I bet there is just 500 gb versions available so we will have to buy extra ssd drives.
