Happenstance Posted September 23, 2016 Posted September 23, 2016 I'm not positive but I think some things allow to play while downloading? Speaking of that: Ok another annoying thing. Games that download a certain amount and then say "Ready to Play". You launch them and it just takes you to a screen with an installation percentage on screen
flameboy Posted September 23, 2016 Posted September 23, 2016 Its only been a day and I'm already pissed off! Bought the physical copy of Halo 5 and installed it, 45 gigs. Big game but thats the way things are going. Before I can play the game though I have to download an update, unfortunate but also the way things are going. 45 FUCKING GIGS! I only bought the game to play the fucking single player! You can bet the majority of that update is multiplayer stuff I will never touch. Apparently it's the entire game again....not an actual patch. No idea why.
Hero-of-Time Posted September 23, 2016 Posted September 23, 2016 Grumble grumble grumble Seems like you've picked up right where you left off with your last One.
Happenstance Posted September 23, 2016 Posted September 23, 2016 Seems like you've picked up right where you left off with your last One. Lol seems that way doesn't it. I really didn't plan to as well! Forza Horizon 3's update should be done downloading in the next half an hour though so I can at least play that soon to cheer myself up.
S.C.G Posted September 23, 2016 Posted September 23, 2016 Forza Horizon 3's update should be done downloading in the next half an hour though so I can at least play that soon to cheer myself up. Oh is that out already? Or did you get an early/digital copy? Either way you've reminded me, so I've ordered it. Loved the first Horizon, missed out on the second but the third looks like the best yet from the E3 footage, it's all about racing in a pesistent world online/offline seamless integration is it not? I can't remember who I had added on my Xbox... it has been ages since I switched the machine one but if you're not on there then I'll add you and if you are then well... see you online soon hopefully! : peace: I'm playing on the old Xbox One though so I'll probably be lagging behind because you know... that technical difference, games running a few frames higher will be interesting to see anyway.

Out on Tuesday. You can get it today if you pay for the Ultimate Edition or just receive your normal copy early like I did.
Happenstance Posted September 26, 2016 Posted September 26, 2016 You'll all be happy to know that due to ridiculous patch sizes I decided I needed an external hd for my Xbox One S so I took the 500gb hard drive that came with my PS4 (which I had switched out for a 2tb) and plugged it into the XBox. My Xbox now feels just a little bit less evil :P
Nolan Posted September 26, 2016 Posted September 26, 2016 Which version did you pick up? Because the original 500 definitely didn't last me anytime at all either.
Happenstance Posted September 26, 2016 Posted September 26, 2016 I went with the 500 thinking that it would be enough given I'd only be using it for exclusives.
S.C.G Posted September 26, 2016 Posted September 26, 2016 I feel just about comfortable with an external 3TB hard drive attached to mine.
Happenstance Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 What are people's gamertags anyway? I could use a few extra drivertars in FH3 so I'm not just beating @flameboy over and over :p
S.C.G Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 What are people's gamertags anyway? I could use a few extra drivertars in FH3 so I'm not just beating @flameboy over and over :p Mine is... Metal Mutiny Metal-Mutiny Metal-Mutiny Colour-coded for platform. : peace:
flameboy Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 What are people's gamertags anyway? I could use a few extra drivertars in FH3 so I'm not just beating @flameboy over and over :p But I don't have FH3 so how can you be beating me...
Happenstance Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 But I don't have FH3 so how can you be beating me... I'm beating your default level drivertar :p Speaking of, are you planning on getting FH3?
flameboy Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 I'm beating your default level drivertar :p Speaking of, are you planning on getting FH3? Considering it....there is a lot else out this month/next month and I have been playing the original horizon which was on GwG last month.
Nolan Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 I think I'm Nolan7689 on XBL. I'm not positive though. I'm also not on often and haven't owned a Forza title since Forza 2.
dazzybee Posted November 25, 2016 Posted November 25, 2016 No discussion since September? Anyways, tempted by an s mainly for the uhd player (thanks Sony). Anyone know of any amazing deals? Game have 200 for minecraft and Forza. Don't really want minecaaft though....

Game have 200 for minecraft and Forza. Don't really want minecaaft though.... That's the best one at the moment. You could get the FIFA bundle for £229.99 at Argos. You can add and extra pad, Gears of War 4 or Forza Horizon 3 to the bundle for free. I'm tempted to get that FIFA bundle myself. I still wanna play Gears 4, as well as Recore, Forza and Quantum Break, all of which are dirt cheap at the moment. Dead Rising 4 is out in a couple of weeks and then Halo Wars 2 in Feb. Hmmmm.....

That's a much better deal, I'd swap mince craft and £30 for Fifa, gears and a pad, then sell Fifa!! OR.... I thought you said AND They have battlefield 1 too and you can those to it
bob Posted November 26, 2016 Posted November 26, 2016 That's a much better deal, I'd swap mince craft How festive!
Hero-of-Time Posted November 28, 2016 Posted November 28, 2016 Picked up a Xbox One S with Gears 4, Recore, Quantum Break and Forza Horizon 3 for just under £250. Good stuff. The console is gorgeous.
Happenstance Posted November 28, 2016 Posted November 28, 2016 I still need to finish Gears 4. The big plan was to finish that then slowly make my way through the earlier games with @Goafer but we've not even started yet.
Nolan Posted November 28, 2016 Posted November 28, 2016 Now that it's been patched to have acceptable load times ReCore is a pretty fantastic game. Sadly I just don't turn my One on enough (still haven't beat Halo 5)
