Instead of all replays getting reset every patch...

Why not set it to a 30 day 'rolling time window' setup? Replays get deleted 30 days after the match.

That way we don't lose our replays after one day depending on when patches are and still prevents having to keep years worth of old replays saved somewhere.

The problem is that once they patch the game, the replay data will no longer generate the same game. They save just the inputs needed to generate the game.

StarCraft 2 kept old versions of the game around for replays, and it would restart in an old version to play them. Was cantankerous, and chewed up a lot of HDD space.
