    Game requires update and we can't play until it is done downloading


    Hi XBOX ONE S! Is there a way you can allow game play while updates are being downloaded? Example: My kids and I play ARK Survival Evolved, they have so many updates. Most of the time we can play for 1-2 days then an update comes in and due to our super slow internet, it is a week before we can play again. I don't want to shut off the internet, because we need the updates, but why can't we play while the update is downloading? Thanks!

    "This player doesn't meet the requirements to join your current game mode"

    We've already done that but still we can't play, but I can't invite him. When I try to invite him, it says that the player doesn't meet the requirements to join my current game mode. We checked everything you said but still we can't play :(

    xbox one in instant-on mode, but doesn't seem to download while it's off

    Hi, It only downloads system updates using instant on. Game downloads and dlc the require the console to be on until it's finished.

    closest game to WoW

    It's just a thought. I played that game since classic until they just updated it. Some reason I can't download the windows client to play it.

    Error code 42FE-0000-3080-0300-8B05-0012

    hasn't worked. Can't download profile as will not connect to XBOX live until the update is done.

    Cleared cache, no change.

    Tried USB update, doesn't do anything. Using FAT32 USB.

    Play game while updating?

    The 15GB Halo Update can be downloaded while playing Campaign. Just set it downloading and load back in to game and off you go playing Campaign until the update downloads.

    Some games allow you to update and play at the same time, others don't similar to the PS4. It depends what the game is updating and whether it is critical files. For example if they need to update the exe file then you probably can't play and update but
    those updates are usually the smaller ones.
