It was legit faster to delete and redownload this game than update it since steam considered my SSD too full (WITH 200 GIGS FREE) to download the files to said SSD, instead opting to use my SLOWEST HDD as the cache drive for the download.
It would then proceed to download the update in 5 minutes and spend 8 HOURS UPDATING.
A full download of the game? 10 minutes.
Glad to see this update. I hope more games follow suit
I remember how pre-loading some games turned out to be slower for me because downloading it at launch meant decrypting it directly from the network, but decrypting files on drive that are already encrypted doubled the IO and that was too much random access for my hard drive
