WhenOperation:Neon Dawnwas released, Ubisoft issued an addendum to the patch notes that explains the reason for the large file size, the reason being that the patch contains a large concentration of data files that reduceRainbow Six Siege’sdata footprint. This includes a reduction of disk space and the game’s build size, as well as improved loading times, too.
Still, the patch update is considerably large, even with the steps Ubisoft had taken. Along with the reduced data footprint, theNeon Dawnupdate will be adding a reworked version of theRainbow Six SiegemapSkyscraper into the game. The map will have many issues fixed by the time it goes live, such as the LOD issues, graphical errors, objects floating in the air, spawning issues for players, and more.
The update will also fix several issues withoperator Aruni’s gameplay abilities. Some changes include Aruni’s melee attacks didn’t break certain surfaces, her deployable Surya Gate didn’t destroy certain gadgets when on walls, and the gate could even be picked up when it overloaded. The update will also fix many bugs for other playable operators, andRainbow Six Siege’soverall gameplay, level design, and user experience, making it evident that theNeon Dawnupdate will be providing improvements to many aspects of the game.
While the game’s new update will certainly have a large file size, Ubisoft is making sure the added benefits will outweigh the extra space it takes up. This is not too out of the ordinary, as other recent releases have had large file sizes, too, likeCall of Duty: Black Ops Cold War.
