How much space will HW take up in addition to what we have now on ps4/pc/ps3?

[WHS]

I have this link:

http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/heavensward/

Which says ps4 50gb, pc 30gb, ps3 20gb. Do those numbers mean in addition to what we already have with 2.0? Do these numbers represent what we will end up with needing between 2.0 and after installing 3.0 to our disks? If this is additional space needed above and beyond 2.0 my ps4 might be little tight since I am running the launch 500gb model. (lol)

Your comments are much appreciated.

It is noted in the red fine print at the bottom of the page:

* Available space on hard disk/SSD refers to the amount required to install both FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn and FINAL FANTASY XIV: Heavensward.

The heck is taking up all the space on PS4? Updated copy on PC is 15.5gb.

I wouldn't expect Heavensward to be any more than 6gb though.

22.5gb of limitations?

The PC version probably has alot more compressed data compared to the consoles, where compression utilities aren't as available. That said, given how much is in the game I'd believe a total (as in 2.0 and 3.0 combined) of listed amounts to be an apt estimate.

I suddenly have the urge to inform you that mine is 14.5GB, or 15 578 816 512 bytes.

Think it is more an issue with how the console works. IDK if it is like it was on PS2... but the way it managed the partition was just flat out screwy. There is a point during the "overwrite" process where you have both the old copy of a file and the new one. Windows just basically did a better job of minimizing how much space was wasted in the process because of how the file system worked.

When all is done, you likely won't have 50GB for the game... you just need that much for it to update.

i think with that is when it updates it just downloads and dosnt delete the old data so i may have a few versions backlog since the ps4 launch
