The update was about 14 MB. I think EA realizes that some people have limited data allowances. It's not like they're pushing out 100 MB updates every week.
How much data does the game normally use if you play it for many hours a day?
The in-game data usage is negligible, it's the updates that eat into our data.
We're on satellite. For about $120 a month we get 20 Gigs of data. Sounds like a lot... Until you start using it for:
Facebook. Youtube. Youtube on Facebook. 5 desktop computers, 3 laptops, 6 tablets, and various other digital equipment (DirecTV DVR, GPS, etc) to keep updated. Another TV show that wasn't recorded or got messed up by a weather outage to track down and download (via DirecTV if we're lucky)...
And to have 3 updates in 2 days just because they made a silly mistake on the date...
And that's not even mentioning the time involved. Satellite is 'high speed" only when compared to dial-up. It took about 4 minutes to download today's update.
Hmmm. Guess I wasn't through griping after all...
