Xbox One Memory question....Playing Games on Disk vs. installing the whole thing

Shaq737 · Jan 2, 2016

Not sure what I am doing wrong. I bought a 64 gig machine last year. It works fine but found that you can only have several games on the machine. How come most games require you to install the game on the machine. What is the point of having a disk? Kind
of tough when you have several kids who have different games and you tell them they can't play with all of them unless you remove another one (with all their progress). I wished I had bought a bigger memory capability if I had know this. Is there anyway to
getting around installing the entire game on the machine to play it. Thanks for any advice or suggestions.

Install disc on usb, play disc on int hdd?

The question the whole issue boils down to is actually very simple: Is the graphic lag (e.g. pop-up textures/objects) better or worse when installing the play disk on a USB drive than when playing directly from the disk? A simple "better" or "worse" would
be awesome. Thanks.

No.All games need to be installed,there's no way around it.

You don't lose you game save(progress) when you uninstall a game.The save should be on your console & on the cloud as well as long as you're connected to live.

Ok here is a question: When my install is done do I need the disk in the Xbox One to play the game?

I have installed the two disks now, one on the USB drive(16GB)(GTA V Instal Disc) and one on the standard xbox 360 hard disk(Play Disk), but it still asking for a cd to load data from it >.<, so here is a question, how to stop the game loading from the
CD?

My issue is not with the install... I have installed it and played it many times... The problem is that I will do something else... Like watch TV and come back to play COD and it loads to a black screen and stops. After multiple try's to load the game,
I will have to either load another game disk to play and then come back to play COD (only works sometimes). Or shut down the whole system and reload it for the game to boot! This is an issue with the XBox One... Not the install or the disk...
