Big Workshop Content Update Downloading 12/3?

[=GG= Mr Moe]

Just what the title says, it seems I'm downloading a large workshop content update for ROHOS right now, 2.2GB.

Interesting. Any info?

Same here, got it around 2 hours ago though.

It is only a bug. Just restart steam and it won't download our subscribed workshop items again.

wierd. i'm not getting it. maybe because i'm only subscrobed to the mutators and dl the maps from servers.

This was a download when Steam opened, not the ingame map download.

Still, odd...

I just got it too. so whats the update for?

[Rabid Penguin]

Anyone figured out what this is yet?

Edit: Okay, I have a theory. Steam itself updated right before this workshop content update happened - I'm wondering if as part of the new steam update, workshop content now updates without the game being open...

For me, it was a 1.7 GB download.

Yep, this is exactly what it is. I confirmed by subscribing to a map I wasn't previously subscribed to, and it instantly began a "workshop content" download through steam.

To be honest, that is much better than downloading the maps while in game, but the user should have an on/off choice in the settings somewhere.

In any case, the download seemed odd since I had all up-to-date maps. Oh well.

I subbed to many of the custom maps in workshop ,...It seems to download any updates whenever I start ro ,...but it seems to take longer than the old server redirect method
Kind of pain when you want to jum in a game right away & you have to wait...

Absolutely right. What I am doing is starting RO 2, switch to window mode and browse the web until the downloads are finished. It's annoying though.
