F1 2021 update

When a game asks to be updated, the size that the update will take appears. Just to be clear, is the game installed and asking to update when trying to play?

Reinstalling the game made no difference? Have you also tried resetting the console to factory defaults while keeping games and apps?

A novice myself ( having a 12 yeaer old grandson really helps). We had an external hard drive on the old x box one x. Just connected it to the series x and loaded the game from disc, but selected the option to put it on the external drive. This allowed it to load fully with the updates. Then just went to the menu and selected the option to move the game to the the internal drive.

Once done it worked fine.

We now appear to have a solution.

1. Remove the game from the internal storage.

2. Install the game and updates on to an external storage device

3. Move the game to internal storage.

This was only done last night but so far the game works perfectly, hopefully until EA develop a better solution.

Happy Gaming!

BTW this game was loaded from disc

I’m having the same issue as everyone else, but I’ve moved mine from external storage to internal on my Series X.

I’ve had the thing a few hours and haven’t played anything yet 😡

Hi Sammy I have tried this but it still does not work. Could this be a storage issue? How can I see how much space is needed for the update?

I'm Samy an independent advisor. Welcome to the Xbox community. How are you?

Click with the menu button on the game icon and go to manage game and add-ons and in saved data delete the ''reserved space'', clean your console's MAC, restart when prompted, and try again.

To clean the MAC follow this path
Settings>general>network settings>advanced settings>alternative MAC address and click clear and restart the console when prompted.

If the problem persists, please try to reinstall the game.
