Can you revert back to patch 1.5?

You can stop the automatic updates and choose a patch version to stay on in the manage installation -> Configure settings!

I'm only getting a 5.6Gb update? Was just checking the forums for any patch/hotfix notes but obviously none at the moment...

Yes. I've tried just now. Same problem. Or to be precise - the original problem of 1.5 patch. But in my case there is a problem that even the hotfix does not solve the problem.
Nevermind. Turning updates back on, downloading another 70 GBs of 1.5 hotfix and will wait... OH WAIT ... it is only 5,6 GB this time.... maybe it will work! ... NOPE, it does NOT! Neither Patch 1.5 nor Hotfix 1.5 work.

FYI, last night it was a full redownload for me. I cancelled it. Today it's only 5.6gb. Looks like they fixed whatever was causing that issue.
I stopped the update and set it to 1.5 until we know more about it. I finally got all my mods to work again and I'm not taking the chance.
Yep, for me, it's only 5.6 Gb now.
why is this update so massive ?

Same for me. But non of them works.

Starkrun: They released a hotfix for PS4 because they completely corrupted the game for them in 1.5 and it couldn't launch that's it... Some how it affected us on PC and this hotfix they refuse to talk about is now apart of our lives. Steam also got a fix that was only a few GB not many changed files at all.

Once again we are treated like second hand citizens. GOG is CDP so why are they doing this to us?

Kashrlyyk: Because GOG is garbage!

Every time a game is patched I have to input my password for EVERY DLC the game has.
For some games I have to type that password 8+ times. TO UPDATE A GAME!!!

Steam doesn't ask once! Just updates the game.

Then we have "hotfixes" like this one where a "HOTFIX" requires you to download the ENTIRE game!
Not on Steam though!!!

Right now GOG does EVERYTHING WRONG and is ABSOLUTELY INFERIOR to Steam!!!!
Until they fix this piece of **** they call GOG am only buying on Steam from now on!

BTW I contacted support about the password thing. They don't see any problems with that!

I am staying on Patch 1.5 and ignore the hotfix!
And right there at the end is the reason GOG is better than steam.

When was the last time Steam let you play your game WITHOUT forcing you to download the latest and greatest patch first?
