Does xbox really suck this bad or do I have a lemon?

InvolvedNote394 · May 7, 2017

So, I got an xbox one for Christmas. We have two ps4''s in the house, but decided we wanted an xbox on for games exclusive only on the xbox.

So I unwrap the xbox on on Christmas day and install gears of war. Hours later and it's only 25%, but it says I can play now. So I click on play now and the whole thing starts over. So for the next few nights a set the timer to shut down 6 hours later and
go to bed. So after 30 hours of downloading it's still not done but it says I can play it now. I figure since it's 75% downloaded that this means the files from the disk are done and the only thing left are any updates from online. So I try to play again and
guess what.. nothing. Now it's frozen at 75% done for the next few days. Finally after another 2-3 days it gets up to 100% completed.

Now I try to play the game and it has to install. I get **** and turn the xbox off for 3 months, just never have once used it. Finally I turn it and let it do its thing for a few hours a night and I'm still at 25% installed. So I forget about it for a few
more months. Ive been doing the same thing for the last three nights and I'm still at 57% installed.

How in the he'll can it only be at 57% installed when the installation happens AFTER all the files are downloaded. Internet speed shouldn't play a factor at all in installation speed. Download of updates, yes. Installation speed, no.

Now I've been stuck at 57% installed for the last 2.5 hours. I'm ready to throw this family thing against the wall. Is what I'm experiencing normal or am I have an issue that I need to send this thing off for? At my wits end, haven't been able to use this
xbox one and I've owned it almost 6 months. HELP

EA/DICE pulled a fast one.

I am a sucker too.

@ lax...as bad as MOH was(and it was really bad) it does not even compare to how terrible homefront is.

HUGE problems with Xbox One X

No i don't have any external drive connected.

This morning, i had to do a second offline update and it freeze in the middle of it.

I think my last option is really to send it for repair which suck really bad!

Sorry to hear you're upset. You said that you're using a disc version of the game. Odds are any updates to the game are interfering with the disc install. I would suggest taking the console offline for the duration of the disc install before going back
online to install any updates.

You felt the need to create a silver account to moan? Really?

I still haven't got to play it considering GAME still haven't delivered my copy -_-'. But I'm sure I'll enjoy it. Enjoy sucking on those lemons

Hardware problems are definitely lower with Xbox One compared to the Xbox 360. There really is no right time. Sometimes you get a lemon and sometimes you don't. You just have to hope your one of the luck ones. It's a very slim chance though that you'll get
a bad console.

Im sorry but I can't even bring myself to play it. It's so bad it crosses the "So bad which makes it funny good" level and just goes straight into to "So bad because it really does suck".

^this is technically the correct way to do it. I say technically because I nor anyone I know actually goes to that site for a clan/crew/group
