    updating a game while its downloading

    Hi, Ahmad. My name is Ron, I'm an independent advisor. I will be more than happy to help you.

    I would highly recommend waiting until the update for the game is done before you try to play it. It is definitely fine, the space of the update is also added that's why the size of the game has changed.
    ok thank you ❤

    Background downloads

    If you have your console set to Instant On, the game will continue to download while the console is in its low power state. Your console will also download game updates while in the this state too.

    Its been a while since I played this game but If I remember correctly, Once it changed from closed beta to open to everyone There was an update. It was a rather large update something like 4gb. So on top of the content already installed to my hdd I downloaded
    the update and it took a while my download speed isnt super fast but its not slow either. Have you tried to just let it do its thing and complete the download? Did you cancel the first download? Do you see any progress while the game is updating? We need a
    bit more info before we can best help you.
