Game takes double disk space when patching or repairing
Why does this game require you have more than 155GB free space on your hdd when its trying to update or repair the game?
The game or EA App literally duplicates all the game files with XXXX_DIP_STAGE files which prevents the game to update or repair if you do not have over 155GB free space.
The requirements is 155GB free HDD space. Not 310GB so why do we need to have 310GB free space for this game?

Hi all,
We are aware of an oddity with the EA app that occurs for players trying to update the game if they have already pre-loaded it last Tuesday or yesterday.
When you try to download the small update released last night, which is about 2-3GB, and you do not have 125GB+ of hard drive storage space available, the update will fail and display an error.
The extra 125GB+ needed is temporary and will be recovered after the update is completed.
If the space is not available, a full uninstall and reinstall of the game will install the correct patch.
Hope this helps.
