11gb update?

[LumaDaLuma]

So I just quit the game for maintenance, and when I checked Steam, it's downloading an 11gb update for FO76. Can someone educate me on as to why? Thanks!

[BruceNitro]

Yeah same.

The alien event that starts in a few hours has new items that needed to be patched in, also a fix for the union Power armor and other smaller fixes are in the patch.

I don't see in the Update Notes that they fixed bug not being able to craft Union Armor lol

I'm pretty sure it's the Skylines Valley map expansion going live.

Oh right sorry

Just be happy you're downloading it through Steam. I got the game free from Amazon Prime and I'm forced to go through the Microsoft store. Normally I get 70+ mb/s on steam and I'm currently sitting at 487 Kb/s... F**k Microsoft.....

11g for weapons is a LOT of weapons.... ;) In fact it would be like 100x the weapons that are currently in the game being that is 1/12 of the total game size lol. Considering the terrain and other structure assets are about 70% and audio is 25%....

Here comes the flood.

Thanks for kicking that off, OP.

Thanks for the heads up.
