    Start Downloads on X1 from a computer?


    I saw some people talking about downloading the Destiny Beta for Xbox and starting it from a computer rather than the console. It was a matter of leaving the console in standby mode, then redeeming the code from xbox.com and starting the download. Is that
    possible? If so, is that all there is to it?

    Much appreciated

    :)

    Continue downloading after turning console off?

    Yes if you select instant on and have started a download you may turn the xbox off and it will continue the download in low power mode. I've done it a few times. Hopefully soon you may purchase remotely and the download starts without having to go home and
    turn the X1 on to start it.

  3. Download size to expect for my 360 games on X1?

    I currently looking at if getting an X1 would allow some games to be played.

    These I have checked should run:

    Alan Wake

    Just Cause 2

    Red Dead Redemption

    Dues Ex: Human Revolution

    Dirt 3

    But what happends when I insert game disk from these into X1 drive?

    Will all install from DVD's as on 360 - and then just a smaller patch downloaded online?

    Or will X1 start doing full game download online when doing that?

    I have very limited data 20G on my 4G modem(10-15Mbit/s) and need to know what happends.

    No way I can download AAA titles, ever.

    Thanks.

    The next console update will enable that feature.

    Yea, as of right now, you can purchase the games online, but you still have to get on the console and download/install them. They will be sitting in the "Ready to Install" section of your Games & Apps tab.

    It would be 1408 as that will be the next update. And your friends sound like non truth tellers as Xbox usually announces that the update will be rolling out to beta testers when its time. They have been quiet about it since last week.

    So Im gonna need to see a screenshot of you OS that says yo are on 1408. Or a screenshot of one of your friends OS, as the update hasnt been released yet. If it had been released everyone would be discussing it on twitter/FB but thats not the case.

    Usually you get an XBL msg saying the update will roll out in a few days. Then a few days later you get another msgsaying it will be rolling out at a specific time. No one that Ive seen has had this message except you, so it seems very odd.
