Size of patch 2.6.5. vs. patch notes

I just downloaded like 5gb+ for the current patch and judging by the short patch notes the patch itself should only be like a couple of 100mb at best.
Did I miss something or are the patch notes shortened due to some strange reason?

✭✭✭✭✭The patch should only be about 220MB, but last week's patch was 2.3GB. Have you been away for a while, and not updated recently? Otherwise, maybe the launcher detected a corrupt file and had to redownload it.
Beyond that, the launcher will always verify at least 5GB, in the "Applying Patch" segment, but that's not downloading anything.UESP: The Unofficial Elder Scrolls Pages - A collaborative source for all knowledge on the Elder Scrolls series since 1995

Just came back last thursday and bought the gold edition - so I was fully patched last time I played.0 -

gard✭✭✭✭✭How are you determining how much was downloaded? Are you measuring consumed bandwidth?
It's just that if you are looking at the patcher, then what it reports as downloading and what it reports as applying are two different numbers.
I pay for bandwidth, so I'm following this topic very closely. A 3GB download is about 30 bucks for me.

I looked at the launcher and yes I know that it displays downloading and patching.
But he showed a 4digit number and I even had to look multiple times to believe it: even if that were only the launcher applying the patch I was fully patched yesterday before 2.6.5. hit - so I had to download a large chunk.Edited by daedalusAI on October 10, 2016 2:48PM0 -

✭✭✭Make sure you differentiate between downloaded size, and installation size.. It shows both on the same indicator.0
