11mb patch

[Mblaze]

Any release notes? This can't be the workshop content update since I don't have any of it installed

[Fiskus Wam Damⱳmorde]

Steamdb says there was indeed the game update but no further info about it so far.

[ArkhamDragn]

Just got the update as well.

[Gabesterof92]

I really need to know what this update does.

The website ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up on my end but they're clearly lying since it's actually a 10.5GB update, meaning way more than a mere EAC patch.

[Goatseface Killah]

Steam is reporting the full size of what's being patched now so a 11MB delta to a 10GB file becomes a 10GB patch. No idea if that's a bug or not

[Dolly ✨🌈🔧]

It's not a bug. The download is 11 MB, but to apply the patch, 10 GB of data has to be re-written. Path Of Exile is a notable case where this happens all the time. If all the code is in one huge file, the whole file has to be written to disk again, no matter how small the patch.

Who knows. All I know is i'm tired of it making it impossible to actually know the update size these days. Bad enough some games do actively just update every file even if not needed.
