    Gaming Service Updated While Game Being Played


    I was playing Stranded Deep on Windows 10 PC Game Pass. Windows unceremoniously closed my game and displayed a message that it had just updated the Gaming Service. Is it normal that Windows would do this???

    It seems that almost any game that I actually like on Windows Game Pass has some major shortcomings compared to Steam. This seems like yet another reason to not renew PC Game Pass again.

    :)

    Play game while updating?

    I just got my Xbox One myself. I have satellite internet so I have to pause the downloads due to having a data cap on my internet. I have the Master Chief Collection completely installed from the disk but I'm unable to finish downloading the update due to
    my data cap. How exactly do I play the game now? It always won't let me start the game now from the main menu.
