Battlefield V keeps requiring large updates.

Hi,

I'm having a problem with my origin and battlefield 5 where the game keeps updating in big sizes. There is always a 30GB update and it is quite impossible to play if i have to keep updating almost every day. Today, I reached my limit when origin made me update the game again after spending the whole afternoon updating the game. I did not even turn off or restart my computer. Honestly, this is so damn annoying and its one of the big issues that is making me sure not gonna give me money to EA anymore.

Any help is appreciated. 

Thanks!

  • Battlefield V should only have big updates up to 2 times a month and those updates are typically 30GB of preparing (this is not downloading) and then the patch which can be like 4-7GB.

    If your game updates several times a day or in another manner than what I described something is most likely broken with your game or Origin installation and you should probably remove these, use Windows to check for harddrive errors and then reinstall them.

  • Dealing with that issue since launch. I’m over it. EA doesn’t give a * about it’s customers and it constantly shows. I don’t know anyone that has actually disagreed with me on that. I’m uninstalling and leaving the origin/EA bs 

  • Now re-downloading 28GB, read GIGABYTE, of data for BFV! Same for Battlefront BTW...

    Such a *PITA*!

    I'm sick of this cr.....y Origin client and updates! This is such a waste of time!

    I'm done with EA, too much is too much!

    NOTHING warrants re-downloading ALL the data for a game! And do not tell me that you HAVE to update all the data, or that everything has changed and has to be downloaded again!

    This is just a bug, not solved, or poor programming on EA's part.

    Anyway, there is NO WAY I'll ever spend a single dime on a product from EA! This has been going on for too long now. I find myself having to wait hours for updates everytime I want to launch this game!
