They said that this will be the last patch in the blog post before the patch, but who knows what will happen with a bit more of that backlash.
Hmm, i sure hope that's not true. The game still needs lots of work.

You can see when the npc's pop-in in that gif, how ubi programmed some little visual effect as they materialize, like they anticipated the pop in, and tried to make it look cool.
Can any PS4 owner confirm if the fan on the PS4 still goes batshit insane when idling in the menus?
how long until they come out and say "It's not pop in, that's a part of the game!"
I like the NPC walking up high, and insta-drops down onto the street.

Blame Abstergo Entertainment and the Animus technology.
Already finished Unity, wish i could get a refund although I got it for free.
First game I decided to pre order digitally, and greatly regret. I tried to get a refund when I saw other people successful, but I was told I played too much of the game(around 5-6 hours)

This is the way the XBox One handles patching. You're downloading large packet files that had modifications done to them which in this case is pretty much everything. The PS4 just downloads the data that has been changed.
The XB1 not having delta patching is the most baffling oversight.
What pisses me the most is that someone at Ubisoft thought that to download that ridiculous 40gb update I need to insert that useless piece of plastic on my console and start the game.
Why it doesn't update automatically?!
So I just bought the Xbone Unity bundle. Does this mean I'm going to have to download both the full version 1.0 game and then the 40GB patch?
Xbox One usually does have delta patching from what I've seen. The problem might be with the update that Ubi submitted.
Updates for other games have never been as large as the actual game. At least not for the games I've purchased.
Delta patching would mean they only have to change the lines of code altered instead of the entire files. If the XB1 has to replace entire files and if this is an extensive patch it would explain why it has 40GB patches.
So are the PS4 and XB1 versions about on par with each other now or does XB1 still run better?
Too early to tell at this point, we don't even have reports about the effects of the patch on the Xbox One version because of the 40GB download
Update 12/16, 5:15pm PST:
We have received and confirmed reports that some Xbox One players who have previously applied Patch 3 are seeing a 40GB download instead of the expected 6.7GB download. Unfortunately, an issue with the patch downloading process is replacing the entire game instead of just the parts affected by the patch. This is obviously not the expected behavior, and we apologize that many of you will have to wait longer than expected to complete this download. This issue isnt causing any other problems and once the download is completed players will have the most-up-to-date and fully patched version of Assassins Creed Unity.
We are working with Microsoft on a solution to reduce the total download to the intended size so that you can get back into the game faster, but as of now we have no ETA on when this will be resolved.

Not supposed to be 40GB. Wonder what went wrong.

Wow, they even failed at patching a game properly.
Atmosphere simulation does wonders for games without day/night cycles. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4vKKfgBobg4Is it just the clouds going across the sun or did they add dynamic day/night cycle? I went into a building tracking down a chest and came back out and it seems like it got darker.
EDIT: It was the clouds.

It's unfortunate about the XB1 patch, no idea what could have caused that.Holy shit ubisoft should totally get a medal for not completely failing!

I knew it. Looks like they need QA for their patching now.
