In other words I need to keep a copy of the currently 17 gigabyte game folder copy and pasted somewhere safe so it doesn't get patched up to the next version number when there is a big patch. The entire folder. I just can't save the .exe file by itself, since maps and sound effects can change as well as the gameplay. I have a portable hard drive I'm not using, so it isn't a big deal, but this will take up a lot of storage space doing this ever time after there is a big patch to copy and paste the new version (better to do it now rather than forget to do it the day before patch-day). Naturally, the normal game folder on my main hard drive that I play with will stay put, as that is the one that will get patched, and the one I play on the live servers with. I will just keep copies of the game just to watch old replays. Or is there a way to watch old replays that doesn't take up so much storage space?

(was just about to make a thread asking this same thing lol ) Would hate to lose some of the replays I have just because I want an up to date game. Also, WG needs to hurry up with making replays official. I mean come on! Its free marketing right there! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
