Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This is kind of a two-tier question. Disc drives are only so fast and there tends to be a lot of data on the game disc. In addition to that, usually there is a massive update as well. It is kind of an annoying process for sure, this is the one advantage the Nintendo Switch has with its cartridges. When it comes to the updates, it is even worse though. Around Christmas you have tons of other people trying to do the same thing and it bogs the servers down a little.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Basically, it all depends on your internet connection. Try using a ethernet cable to your router sometimes a hard connection is needed. Because if you have to many things connected such as phones, cable box tablets and so on. Xbox and PS4 both take a very long time to download games.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Optical disc drives can’t read data quickly enough to keep up with modern games, so you get the best gaming experience when you install the game from a disc on your Xbox One console. Unfortunately, this means taking a little bit of extra time up front to install a game and download any necessary patches before playing.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It takes so long because it is downloading the game to the hard drive on the system and Xbox won’t let you play while it is doing it. My rule is if you are going to play a new game, leave the system on when you go to sleep and by the time you wake up it should be downloaded. Not all games will take a long time to download.
