For the past 6 days, I've received 5 updates of more than a Gigabyte!
What are these updates? Although the game has very few issues, they are never fixed!

Edit:
Apparently it's not updates, but downloads of undermined purpose?

Issue 1:
Tip to enable Dynamic lighting on Radeon Graphics.

If you use AMD Radeon graphics, Dynamic lighting is turned off, the game look A LOT BETTER with this on, and it has worked for years. Dynamic lighting enables the day/night cycle lights, without it, it's always daylight, and things look flatter too.
.
How to enable on AMD Radeon GPU:
Goto your home directory and show hidden files.
Open .local/share/aspyr-media/borderlands 2/willowgame/config/Willowengine.ini
Change DynamicLights=False to True

If you never saw Borderlands 2 with this setting on, you'll be amazed.
