Downloads "getting stuck"/taking an unreasonable amount of time to download.

Anyone having this issue with the Sunset Overdrive bundle code or had this issue with any game in the past? When I started downloading everything seemed normal. Hit 17% in about 20 minutes then it just stalled. Another 20 minutes go by and it went up to
18%. I restarted the download and it took four hours to go from 1%-8%. Anyone know what to do? I tried clearing the bluray cache 3 times and clearing the alternate mac address, hard resetting the system, canceling the download, leaving it on etc...this is
kind of ridiculous and turning me off of downloading anything else from the store if it's gonna be this much of a hassle. I've seen some people having issues with the MCC download taking forever and resetting. Honestly I'm upset that the plans my friends and
I made were cancelled because the download isn't working properly. I've reset my modem. Everything else connected to our router/modem is working fine but the download for this one game. Please help if possible.

:)

 

Wolfenstein Taking an Absurd Amount of Time to Download

Depends of your internet speed and the time you downlaod try off peak mate

 

Wolfenstein Taking an Absurd Amount of Time to Download

As MessiahBrowny mentioned it all depends on your consistent download speed.

If you test your speed under: Settings > Network > Detailed Network Statistics (Download speed is what matters) This is measured in Megabits (Bits, not Bytes) your download is measured in megabytes not bits.

Bits are 8 times smaller than bytes.

So to figure out how long a download may take.

Find your download speed in megabits.

Example: your megabit speed = 40mbps (Mega Bits Per Second) 40,000,000

Now divide that by 8 to convert it into bytes per second. = 5,000,000 or 5MB (Megabytes)

Now multiply that number x 60 to get per minute = 300,000,000 or 300MB (Megabytes)

Now multiply that number x 60 again to get bytes transfer per hour = 18,000,000,000 or 18GB (Gigabytes)

So in an ideal situation where your connection speed is perfectly consistent and no one else is using your connection. You could in theory download 18GB in an hour.

Take 44GB and divide it by 18GB and you get 2.444 hours. On a perfect connection that is used for nothing other than that download.

That assumes also that the source that you are downloading from is also perfect. So 4hours is pretty good considering all those factors.

A consistent connection is pretty rare. Most will vary quite a bit.

@c1664daz - The Xbox One games can't run from the disc anymore like the 360. The games are huge compared to 360 games. Imagine having to wait for 10 minutes between rounds waiting for the content to transfer from the bluray. It would be unplayable.

 

what's your internet speed? this could be related to your internet connection or maybe related to your router,try making a detailed network test on your xbox and see how much of your internet speed are you getting.also if you can try to download something
else and see if the issue still exists.also contact your ISP if all else fails

 

My internet speed is 50mbps, nothing else in my house seems to be having an issue with downloads or slowness. Nothing else on the xbox is taking awhile to download either. How do I run a test on my system itself?

 

settings>network>detailed network test

 

Ok thank you. I'm checking on that now. It says download is "15Mbps". I've got the system hooked up directly to the router/modem and yet it's still taking over 20 minutes for 1-2% increases.

 

The bandwidth usage confirms it downloaded the first 5 gigs of the game in about 2 hours. And then over the course of the next four hours only downloaded maybe three? Something seems off.

 

you should check the connection with the router maybe thats it,that or your ISP is throttling your connection because "15Mbps" is less than half your speed.you should probably give them a call

 

Hopefully that helps. Even if it's less than half my speed, it still shouldn't take 5-10 hours to download a 20 gig file at that speed.
