Fallout 76 Day 1 Patch Download Before Relese
- Fallout 76 day one patch file size bigger than the entire game. Thread starter. So I will continue to support them by buying their product day one or close to release. But I'm pretty much finished with Bethesda. When you download a full game day 1, does it download with a patch as well or are the changes already implemented on to the.
- The Patch 1.01 for “Fallout 76” (Day One Patch) will be around 50 GB in size, before you can play Fallout 76, you need to download and install the update. So that you can play Fallout 76 you need about 100 GB of space on your console or PC.
Just a day remains before we get to play Fallout 76. However, Fallout 76 day one patch is over 50 GB but turns out, that 50 Gb is the entire game as the retail disc only contains 200 MB of data.
Last week, we heard about the numerous problems that the Fallout 76 beta was facing, some of the problems were so bad that they were even game breaking for some players. Now, Bethesda has dropped a 30GB update a day before the games next beta session.
This patch is massive in comparison to the games total file size. Fallout 76 beta weighs in at only 47GB, the patch that is being released has clearly not been compressed as much as it could have been, and has been pushed out so players that jump onto the beta tomorrow will have a much better experience within the game despite the download. It seems that Bethesda are truly under the pump for the launch of Fallout 76, with the games launch only a couple weeks away and the developer ushering out massive updates like this, only shows that the title may not necessarily be ready for launch.
Moving onto the patch notes now, we have the standard stability improvements that Bethesda have said are 'significant' across the board, performance improvements and fixes for the hitching that was present during gameplay. Other changes include; enemy balancing, crafting requirement changes, quest changes, bug fixes for both graphical errors and enemies, and much more.
