Today's Destiny Patch is 6GB

IGN - If you're hoping to play Destiny anytime soon, you better turn on your console now - today's 1.1.2 patch clocks in at a massive 6GB, as discovered by IGN's Destin Legarie

This update makes a number of improvements, including changes to the competitive mode, bug fixes for Raid bosses Atheon and Crota, and a new Colorblind Mode.

on my PS4 I see it as 6.056 gigs, maybe because min is the European version and has more audio files?

admiralvic4059d ago

Mine is NA and is the same 6.056.

FamilyGuy4059d ago

I'm glad I saw the title of this article, would hate to have started up the game to find out I needed to download this big file. My fault for not using rest mode I guess.

Is there and in-game download as well? There's typically a secondary download that you have to do within the game with these patches. I wonder how big that one is.

Relientk774059d ago

I'm downloading it on my PS4, and its 6.056 GBs like IGN said

OUROSMAG4059d ago

The initial patch might be 4, but you need to check the app information it will tell you the total download size.

WildArmed4059d ago (Edited 4059d ago )

PS4 is 6gb because of the PS4 exclusive strike that was modded.

Since the Xbox One doesn't have that strike, I assume the patch was smaller.

thorstein4059d ago

By 2Gb of data? That is a tremendous amount if you're correct.

elninels4058d ago

Closer to 1.2gigs. Big difference.

Does the new patch let you adjust the opacity of the HUD or remove it? Until then I am no longer supporting this game. The bright white HUD in this game damn near caused permanent burn in on my plasma TV.

elninels4058d ago

I understand that everyone has an opinion and "disagrees" are just an expression of said opinions, but what is there to disagrees with here? Do they disagree with the thought that burn in is possible with plasma tv's? Do they disagree with you not playing anymore because your tv may be ruined? I don't understand. Burn in is a problem with plasma tv's. It's also a problem with oled displays too. The OG vita had this problem, I know, I had one.

VitaOwner4059d ago

Here comes the posters thinking they are comedians posting, "People still play this?" or something to that effect. Get a life and go play what you like. Can't wait to try out the tweaked pvp mode

He paid billions for Starfield. This should be the real story.

Microsoft bought all of Zenimax Media for 7 billion, while Sony paid 4 billion for Bungie. I think Microsoft got the better deal due to acquiring Fallout, ElderScrolls and Doom.

anast629d ago

This can't be true. They only bought Starfield...

InUrFoxHole629d ago

@anast
Should've thought that one out buddy, lol.

anast629d ago (Edited 629d ago )

Yeah, I thought it out. I'm not sure you did. But since we are buddy's now, you're welcome.

So you're saying that Microsoft has missed out on so many huge gaming franchise in the last 25 years from GTA exclusivity to guitar hero and destiny it's just laughable they had so many misses

Reaper22_629d ago

Yea, but they're still 100 times more wealthy than Sony. I would say it worked out well.

Gamingsince1981629d ago

Xbox is dead all that money doesn't help.

Hypertension140629d ago

What has work out well? It sure as hell had nothing to do with Xbox.

andy85629d ago

That isn't because of Xbox though. This is a gaming page, not an I get supplemented by father Windows page

Bathyj629d ago

Microsoft's money has nothing to do with Xbox.
Xbox is a money pit to them they would love to ditch but are after some ROI first.

Let's face it, Xbox is like a red headed stepchild that steals from you to buy drugs.

Hofstaderman629d ago (Edited 629d ago )

MIicrosoft is NOT XBOX. The current situation illustrates this. And Microsoft wants its ROI.

@Bathyj and daddy Satya has just force admitted Phil to rehab.

gold_drake629d ago

you know why MS has so much money, and it aint cause of the gaming xbox branch.

so lets not kid ourselves.

PhillyDonJawn629d ago

Xbox was shown to be more profitable than ps

jznrpg629d ago

@PhillyDownJawn not more profitable. More revenue with ABK acquisition but them going multiplat shows they are not making much profit

ocelot07629d ago

That's great for Xbox gamers ain't it that Microsoft are more wealthy than Sony. Is that really a argument use are using now lol?

Imagine me in my job. Arguing with a fellow security guard at another company. Hahah well the company I work for is worth £800m the one you work for is only work £600m!

Microsoft may have more money but Sony has the talented studios and the games to back up those studios.

Plus turning down Marvel too. Spiderman is only exclusive to Playstation because of that

Hedstrom629d ago

Best deal deal in gaming must be when Sony bought Insomniac for 229 million dollars. They made over 800 millions on Spiderman for the ps4 alone. Thats just crazy!

XBManiac629d ago

More in the 1.000 million now.

gold_drake629d ago

another Interview?

how is he the only one who loves the spotlight as much as he does lol

Futureshark629d ago

Let's not forget he also famously passed on Spider-man, Genshin Impact and GTA3.

However it's almost kind of cute how he can keep that sh1t-eating grin and say he's a 'no regrets' kind of guy, especially when you think how much just these 5 titles could have swung the world in Xbox's favour instead of Sonys.

How he's kept his job I don't know, he must sure be keeping Papa Nadella's shaft warm somehow.

"But, but Gamepass, he introduced that!!!"

Yes he did, and now look at Xbox, all it's exclusives are coming to Playstation now rendering the platform obsolete.

DarXyde629d ago

Honestly, with that kind of track record, you can't convince me Spencer hasn't eaten it from the back in the name of self preservation. Probably unwashed...and at least twice.

That aside, my interpretation of everything here is Xbox has been mismanaged a bit too much and Nadella came down from his throne. The way it is now, I don't believe for a minute the multiplatform move was Spencer's idea. I don't even think the acquisitions was Spencer's work. At this point, I reckon he's got as much power in his role as Hunter Biden at a Ukrainian energy company.

DivineHand125629d ago

You can never tell how things will turn out if he had said yes to those games. Xbox already has access to some great IPs, however, they hardly do anything with them or fail to deliver. It's also possible their presentation wasn't good at the time, and they made sure the next presentation was better.

I believe that part of being successful is releasing things in the right place at the right time.

Many major corporations have a story similar to passing on successful business ideas. Let us look at Sony Pictures for example. Back when Marvel went bankrupt, they had the opportunity to buy the entire Marvel for only $25 Million but turned them down. An unnamed big shot at Sony reportedly claimed that “nobody gives a shit about any of the other Marvel characters,”. They ended up taking Spiderman for $10 Million instead.

Fast forward to today, we can see what the Marvel brand has done for Disney. Is it possible the same success would have been possible had Sony acquired those IPs. We can't say that for sure and it is possible most of those IPs that are successful today may not have been used.
