Earlier today I bought and then started downloading/installing Batman Arkham Knight for my X Box One S at 11 earlier today.

Tonight right now i turn my X Box One on and the game is still installing.

So, do any game bought off of the X Box Live store take this damn long to install for a whole day or whatever?

Yup. Halo took about 25 hours to install for me.

Red Road Redemption was 2 discs and took 15 hours to install. And this was a mix of disc and download update files.

It’s ridiculous and tedious. It also depends on how good your internet is too.

well my internet is just fine. I just want to know why any game has take a whole day or even a day and a half just to download/install? even for an action game like Batman Akham Knight shouldnt have to take this damn long to install

I have never ever had a game take more than few hours.

I have the digital version of Halo as I mentioned.
Very recently it had to do a 60-70 gig update. It took almost 10 hours just for that. That's absolutely ridiculous for an update, let alone waiting all day, night or overnight for a complete game.

For the record, I have 200 MBPS with Spectrum. So I don't have some POS DSL connection for anything like that. Sometimes during peak hours, the connection does slow down due to heavy traffic. Especially now with fucking everyone at home.

Yeah, Microsofts servers bog down pretty bad at times too. I assume Halo is so big due to uncompressed audio and what have you, but its kind of crazy considering the amount of content and the graphical fidelity of those games.

Digital man. It's the future!

I have mine hardwired and download expecting not to play immediately so I've never noticed download times.

This only happens with my internet slows down otherwise it doesn't take that long for me.

Batman Arkham Knight is at 89 percent and still installing. Jeez louise.

Never took this frikking long for some of the games I had to buy and download for my Playstation 3

I'm not seeing any slow speeds like that. For large games it usually takes no more than a couple hours to download/install.
My XBox One X isn't even hardwired... it's going over WiFi.

Do you think when the new consoles come out. The download speed, will improve with the new powerful specs? Or it’s only your internet bandwidth speed is what matters?

The install speed should be much faster because of the SSD. And they have apparently changed the way that updates work (currently they have to reinstall the entire game when an update occurs, which is why you need SOOO much space for even a tiny update). That is different from download speed, though download+install is usually the time it takes for a game to be ready. That is still at the mercy of your internet provider, but more than likely the speed of their servers as well.

However, games will also probably be bigger, so I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Games sometimes take a few hours for me over wi-fi, both Xbox and PS4. In a perfect world, I start the download before I’m ready to start playing, but that doesn’t always work out.

Do you have the console set to keep downloading/installing when shut off?

he's suspended, i wouldn't think you'd hear much from him too soon, if at all, god willing
