    Game took too long to open


    I've been having this problem for a few months and have resorted to abandoning video games. (The only other thing that got me to do this was the terrible experience I had with the Art Institute of Seattle's staff screwing me out of my Game Dev Degree and
    leaving me with my debt.)

    So far I've tried the following:

    quit and re-launch

    hard reset (button hold AND I've unplugged it and plugged it back in.)

    uninstall and re-install

    wipe temporary data

    clean disk

    utilize another EA game to reset something or other, which was a fix I read about on another forum.

    Currently I have BF4 installed and fully updated. I have all the map packs. I have an active EA Access subscription and an active gold membership to XBL. Other games work just fine. Same disk will play on my brother's xbox and using my account on his xbox.
    The only thing I can think to do now is a factory reset, which I would like to avoid so I don't have to back my stuff up to "the cloud" I hate "the cloud." If this was my 360, I'd just back it up to my PC with a high capacity flash drive, but that doesn't
    work on the One to the best of my knowledge.

    :)

    Hi Grunt989! Does the problem come up with all the games that you try to start while you're upgrading? Try deleting the system cache with the power cycle and try again. Hold down the power button for 10 secs, wait for the console to turn off, wait for 30
    secs, and then turn it on again.

    Hello, have you tried restarting the xbox. I found this usually solves a majority game starting issues. If you are unsure how to go to this link for step by step directions, vladimir checa on Twitter

    Try clearing the cache of your console by holding down the power button on your console for 10 seconds.

    Hi there Barr0w, thanks for reaching out and we're sorry to hear about the frustrating experience.

    To check, can you please send us your Detailed Network Stats (Settings>Network>Network Settings>Detailed Network Statistics) as seen on your Xbox One console? Is this happening with any games you try, disc, or digital?

    yeah it happens with any game I try to launch. I've had the problem ever since I got the console though and I've tried resetting it like that in the past but it still happens
