Will the Director's Cut be an update, or a separate install?
The Director's Cut is a separate game instead of a patch. You will see a new "Wasteland 2: Director's Cut" game appear in your library. That way you can also keep playing the original Wasteland 2 if you wish.

What is new in the Director's Cut?
Wasteland 2 Director's Cut changes a huge number of aspects of the game. Our main new features and changes include:
Graphical overhaul and update to the Unity 5 game engine.
Expanded voice-over with thousands of newly-voiced lines for key characters and scenes.
Precision Strikes system allows you to target individual body parts on enemies in combat, which lets you inflict negative status effects on them.
Perks system lets you pick bonuses for your characters as they level up.
Quirks system lets you pick a personality trait for each custom created Ranger during character creation, with a gameplay-modifying positive and negative quality.
Rebalanced gameplay, including virtually all combat encounters, weapons, loot drops and containers.
Controller support on PC and console.
There's plenty of smaller additions to be found, of course, but we'll leave those for you to find.
