Based on the size on the patches, I'm guessing they're for the Pro/X textures which they couldn't fit on the disc.
Maybe it's a combination of the two. Either way it's really annoying this is becoming the norm for day 1 patches.
There are no PS4 Pro enhancements, only Xbox One X.
Actually they confirmed on Twitter that the Pro version will support 1440p upscaled to 4K.
Dead Rising 3 had a similar patch after launch. Basically redownloaded the entire game.
Is it really that bad? I mean just put your console in Sleep mode and let it download it over night.
You still own the physical copy if you bought it, You will just be missing the month worth of bug fixes and optimizations since it went Gold.
The Pro isnt on the same level as the X so expecting 4k or close to isnt a good way to look at it id understand your point if the Pro was on par or superior but its not, far from.
If you want 4k textures etc than buy it on PC or the X.
John isnt the game running at 1440p on Pro? I throught they came out and said there will be Pro support.
