What are things I need to keep in mind when creating a game and expecting to have game patches and updates in the future when trying to avoid having players download the entire game over again?

Off the top of my head, I could see adding more levels, tweaking existing level maps, entities, and tweaking HUD(s), etc....

Would this be as simple as creating an .exe file set to install the updated files to the corosponding directories?
