i have had problems downloading Halo master chief collection, the download bar kept dropping from 44% to 24% and so on.

I tried it 3 times and it failed. Now on the release date, i have to try yet again while everyone else can play the game.

The funny thing is you need almost 2 days to download 60gigs on a 5mb download connection. What if this time fails as well,

when am i gonna play the game i paid for? in a week?

Thanks for [mod removed] us over microsoft, no really [mod removed] YOU!!!

Thanks for nothing!

Sorry for the late reply guys. Look here's how it is. The game is playable and I can get kills but it's just lags at times. Like if I come around a corner and it's one on one I will always die first. And when the replay of my death comes up, according to
it I haven't even fired. Even though on my end I know I did. Now while the game is playable, it's not what it should. This is a fast paced, online only game where in all honest, every millisecond counts. It's the difference between winning a battle and not.
I'm just disappointed that basically they are saying to us "sure you can buy our game but we won't support it in your country". It's a kick in the teeth, especially when it's a well known fact that Aussies pay a lot more than the rest of the world for their
software. Why EA couldn't run dedicated Aussie servers until Microsoft gets the azure servers going in this county is beyond me. They do it for BF4. So yes the game is playable. Is it what it should be for a fast paced online only FPS? Hell no!!

Unfortunately I'm only getting my X1 on or before the 25th of Feb due to circumstance... But once I'm on, I'll be in for Titanfall... Having not played the beta, I'm sure I'll suck compared to those who've had hands on time... But hopefully it won't take
me long to pick it up.

Really looking forward to it.

You're an ambassador and you come here and speak like that? Absolutely terrible form mate, if you're that displeased you can voice your opinion here:
Xbox Ideas, powered by UserVoice

Also, you can probably imagine there would be a lot of users downloading this particular game, so issues can be expected with the first 48hrs. If you want to avoid this, you could have bought the disc version as I was installed and playing within 20 minutes.

Big country, small poulation, isolated location, overpriced internet, most people live on the coast where as most of the inland is blank. Our internet is fine in the big cities, I have a friend who lives in Brown City Michigan who has a bad connection due
to location. Playing p2p is often australia to New Zealand or Japan Or Hong kong, this is terrbile for hosts. It's location location, we need dedis though this may not be profitable to suppliers. I have worked for telstra's competition for a decade and frankly
Telstra is a black hearted joke of a business. Now if South East Asia hooked up with consoles a bit better we'd be fine, but allot of SE Asia is worse off for the internet anyway.

I have travelled allot and live in both Hong Kong and Cairo, globally people are ignorant of different countries and culture, well duh

Titanfall is fine to play from Australia given that you have a good connection

Thats made my day mate

I'm optic fibre for a company I worked for, there are some left over perks that I'll take advantage of

Hey Rippen, Just more people on when I've been playing and have allot of actual friends in the U.S, buy that I mean non eFriends, no offense. My connection is good enough for it so it's no issue, with that in mind I need to hook up with your crew on Bf4 at
some time, you're vids are top notch

RippenHarra

Only on BF4 and that is not my connection I believe. Titanfall excellent.

It's not necessarily budget here. I have the best I can get for what's available in my region. That is only ADSL2 with a max speed of 20mb/s Down because of where I live I can only get 8.5 down. I used to live in the centre of town and could get 17mb/s.
Friend of mine in another state was on 2.5 mb/s and had to move to get better lucky for him he's a renter I am not.
