If your C partition is too small, resize it. Non-issue detected.
What if I just prefer to have the savegames in the actual game folder, where they belong?

And it doesn't need to record fuck all for game data, just some ship builds. No massive world with a billion possible item locations and door open/close states like Morrowind or diablo. A fucking gig to save the damned game.
I think I've seen a 2GB save file before too, from the sequel iirc. But the average is still ~200MB.

Wow, I don't think my naval ops 2 save was 2GB. I had several of them on an 8 MB memory card, so that would be quite an accomplishment!
DamnedRegistrations said:It's still retarded. What the fuck do you need 2MB for for Naval Ops? Especially when something as horribly compicated as Diablo (potentially hundreds of items each with individual randomized stats located anywhere on any of what was it, 16 floors?) takes 120kb.
Diablo uses procedural generation for its maps and items, so I'm guessing only the random seed value was stored. An integer would be plenty, in this case, and is usually only 4 bytes (although, it depends on the system).DamnedRegistrations said:It's still retarded.

DamnedRegistrations said:That's still an integer for every item (Likely a second for it's location.) What the fuck do Naval Ops need instead? A well written history of every different CWS on the ship?
(Edit: Diablo also keeps track of every fucking corpse in the game.)
