    Installs and updates take entirely too long.


    It's pretty frustrating to have to wait hours even days for games to be installed on these modern day gaming systems. It's even more frustrating to have to sit through the wait again any time a game needs an update. Why
    aren't we able to simply put the game in and play? Also if the games are going to be as big as they are why not release a system with enough memory to allow it not to get full after installing 10-20 games?

    So how long, on average, does install+update take on XboxOne?

    Updates dont take too long. Installs fucking suck though.

  3. Day one patch on none day one console

    Think how many people will be downloading the update on x-mas morning,it may take a very long time to download.

    Not to mention the games take a long time to install too.

    Installs and updates take entirely too long.

    They are offering systems with more storage these days but they also offer systems with less storage that are more economical. The games are getting larger due mostly to the demands of the public. Unfortunately, you can't have one without the other. If
    you want the great graphics and functionality it does come at a price. You can eliminate a lot of the waiting by putting your system in instant on mode where it will install updates in the off hours so you are not constantly waiting on something to update.

    Here are some solutions for you, boss... set your console power options to always on and the updates will download as they are released. As for the storage issues, I went out and picked up a 4tb external Seagate hard drive for around $100.00. I know it
    doesn't really help your current concerns but it's a start. Plus, with an external that size, you can buy the cheapest system due to its HD size but have double the space of Microsoft's flagship console for the same price. The auto update will help with
    time also.

    Think about this Krazy, on the 360 you had WAY less space to install ANYTHING. Everything was basically based on physical copies. Now, you don't even have to leave your house to grab a game...even pre-orders! Yeah you might only have enough space to hobserve
    5-8 games at a time, but it's not like if you delete them you have to buy them all over again. Inconvenient, yes but raging over it won't help either. I hope this helps a little, man. I feel your pain!

    Updates taking too long

    I haven't found a way around it myself yet, I do know the game downloads faster if you turn the system off. Other than that some games will let you play after it makes it to a certain portion of the download but if you start the game while its doing that
    itll slow the download speeds again and you may run in to some issues while playing the game.

    Updates taking too long

    I don't know if there is any way around it, unless freeing up the require space for the update?
