Measured from the 6 manifests the account has read, since it gained Black Squad on 5 Sep 2026. Install bytes are the uncompressed file sizes of the default install (Windows, base game, English); depots behind DLC or keys, other languages and low-violence variants are counted apart and shown under every depot. Download and fresh-download bytes are compressed chunk lengths; the two are never added together. Efficiency is a patch’s download divided by the bytes it rewrote on disk.

Silent means no patch note and no update event of Steam’s own feed within 24 hours either side of the build, on a branch that needs no password, judged once the build is a day old. Signals name a technology only through its file rules; an executable that changed size is reported as a size change. Data by SteamPeaks.com.
