Опис питання:
Arma Reforger on Xbox Series X reserves only 24 gigabytes for downloading mods, it needs to be increased to 100 gigabytes. When the reserved space reaches 24 gigabytes, mods stop downloading until enough mods are deleted to free up the required space to join another modded game server.
To avoid such issues in the future, the amount of reserved game storage should be increased from 24 GB to 100 GB, or players should be allowed to set the amount of reserved space themselves.
24 gigabytes of reserved storage on Xbox Series X for Arma Reforger is far too little. The game automatically reserves 24 GB.

Sincere greetings, I hope that in the next update the developers will increase the reserved space from 24 GB to at least 80 GB.
Because currently, one modded server takes up 20–21 GB, and to join another server, we have to delete the mods and then wait a long time for the new ones to download — and we have to repeat this every time we switch servers.
Are there any tips on how to increase the reserved space?
All Arma Reforger players on Xbox Series X would be very grateful. Thank you.

I'm not sure why my fellow commenters think this is a feature request.
Giving the game, a platform, only 25 gig is an issue, given the fact that most servers require a serious amount of storage to even play.
What is the technical reason for the 25gig limit?
100 gig is not the solution, thats a hot fix. Get rid of the limit or set it to some high number. Let users decide on how many mods they want or need.
I don't want to play Arma Reforger in vanilla mode. I want the real sh*t, like blue f***ing tape around my arm!

100GB reserved space would be too much for consoles, remind you that 100gb is AUTOMATICALLY reserved upon starting your game, that 100gb will be overwritten with mod details, it will make Arma Reforger on XBOX weigh about 120gb, not worth it.
I wouldn't want to see Reforger weigh more than 80gb on consoles because of "mod capacity".

A generous bump of another 24GB I think is enough.

Edit1:
For the people who like reading, allow me to elaborate;
ARMA REFORGER on Xbox Series consoles should be somewhere around 45.6GB, that's the total size.
24.4GB of that total size is Reserved Space which is Reserved Space for mods, remove that and the game itself will be somewhere around 21GB.
21GB for base game, 24.4GB reserved space, now think, how much are you JUSTIFIABLY willing to make the reserve space weigh without making the game take up unnecessary space just because YOU like to jump around every server known to man?

Mods for a single high-quality game server take up 21 GB. Many players enjoy participating in TVT events that are held periodically and have their own servers, which take up 8–12 GB.
Because of this, players constantly have to delete mods for their favorite server and then re-download them after the event, which affects the SSD.
24 GB is only enough for one server, while most players play on two or three servers. I believe there’s nothing wrong with allowing players to reserve the necessary amount of space for mods in the game settings themselves.
And that would be better than just limiting it to 24 GB.
