Patch for a new game?

[unchainedt]

Why is there already a patch for the game? It's really annoying that I have to wait 30 minutes for a patch to download when the game came out 5 days ago. Especially since I had to wait 10 minutes for it to "install game data" The patch is only downloading at 270 kb/s. They don't have any better servers to download the patch from?!?! (My internet speed is 20 down 1.5 up).

... have you never even played a game before?? Lots of games put out patches after they manufacture all the discs, it just means they are continuing work on a game you paid for.. should be happy. Also the map is giant I would be really surprised if it didn't install anything. So in conclusion, quit whining.

Nearly every PS3 game I buy at release has a patch on it, even when the game arrives early from pre-orders.

No dude, this is totally my first one. You mean most games have a 30 minute patch that you have to download before you can play it for the first time.....

Of course it's not my first game! I think it is bad for the customer experience to have a patch at the beginning and I can quite freely express that if I so wish. Which I do.

Bioshock Infinite. Mass Effect 3, Call of Duty Black Ops II, Tomb Raider. Those games either had a) no patch. or b) a patch that was less than 1.2mb and took 30 seconds to install.

Actually it's not bad and stop being a prick for people trying to help you, it's called they have an alpha test right before they released it and had a patch for people so it wasn't behind. /slowclap

You are wrong blops2 had multiple patches on the server side and client side to fix people not being able to play together or group together obviously you didn't get it at release.

Helpful? Who was being helpful, the person that told to stop whining or the person that added no value to the conversation by telling me that all games do this (which is not correct)

[unchainedt]

Two patches?!?

Wrong. I got it on launch day. There was no major patch. It had a 1.2MB download. The game has had patches and downloads since, but nothing that took an hour (Defiance has 30 minutes for the first patch and apparently there are two of them).
