Bethesda will thus screw over those who pre-ordered Fallout 76 to play the game before it hits the shelves…
USGamer reports that Fallout 76‘s first-day patch will be 54 gigabytes. It’s already making our jaw drop, but let’s add the fact that the game itself weighs in at 45 GB. The patch is bigger than the game! It will need roughly a hundred gigabytes total. In the Fall of 2015, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 5’s disc had 4 GB of data (which, with a 25/50 GB Blu-ray disc, depending on one or two layers, is pathetic), and the launch-day patch, containing most of the game, took 8 GB…
The patch will try to fix bugs, but at this rate, we can’t take this thought seriously anymore, especially how we’re only a few days away from the game’s launch – all we can do is facepalm…
Fallout 76, which will require a constant Internet-connection, is out on November 14 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.
