My game has been running fine and probably a little smoother after patch.

I wouldn't be surprised if they have disabled the ability to make the game look good.
Is the game an update or a patch? Technically an update replaces files whereas a patch changes affected code. Some games may have files that are say, 1 GB in size, and if 200 bytes of code need changing the update will replace the whole file. The patch (delta patch) will just patch that 200 bytes of code. So, for the same game, a 2 GB update and a 500 KB patch may have the same outcome, and identical resultant files.
