You probably won't see any ongoing royalty arrangements. Another reason patent owners don't like them is that they will stop if the patent is later held invalid, whereas license agreements are always written so there is no refund of any part of a lump sum if the licensed patents are later found invalid.

That being said, there is generally a present-value (and risk-based) discount built into the lump-sum amount compared to the royalty.
