This worked for me: Turn off auto download in settings, reboot, turn on auto download, shut off completely, turn on in 15 minutes. When I turned it on the download was already at 75%.

My thought is you don't have any X1 games, but are contemplating buying two copies of MCC? Why not buy one copy of the game, and pick up Sunset Overdrive or Forza Horizon 2 instead?


Eh I suppose you're right. I'll just hold off on double dipping until a price drop.

Shit so this comes out Tuesday, right? I preordered it at target and I'm semi interested in the b2g1 promotion and I get a $5 gift card for my preorder. Not sure if it's worth $5 and a potential b2g1 deal when I can download and patch and play halo 3 immediately.

Off topic but speaking of b2g1, does this extend to targets pc game collection?

Best Buy just shipped my copy out. Heads up for people that ordered from there

Edit: that might be the bonus multiplayer book

The size of this patch really pisses me off. I specifically buy disc games because I have a small monthly bandwidth cap. Using 15 GB on a patch for a game I bought on disc is really annoying.

I really think developers still aren't considering that this can be a huge chunk of someones monthly bandwidth, to the point where they will have to limit other online activities just to download a patch.

Based on my google search and the forums I came across if yours is stuck on 100% this is the error that occurs when you need to download the entire game over :/ Happened to me as well and this happened to a bunch of people with Advanced Warfare. Maybe give it some time but if it's still like that after a while... well.... bad news...

To be safe I went ahead and just deleted it and am downloading the entire thing again. it's downloading a file that's 59.1 GB.

I did the same as well. Mine was stuck forever in "Updating", yet from a Gb standpoint was fully installed. I decided to delete the file and start downloading all over again.

I setup my Xbox to not turn off, and then turned my TV off, and it's been sitting that was the past hour or two. Plan on checking on it later on this afternoon, and crossing my fingers it will be completed downloaded and ready to go. I want NO SURPRISES come 11/11, which is why I decided to go digital for this game vs. physical.

Awesome! I'll be looking forward to seeing your impressions in the OT. I'm a big fan of Halo.

Will do! And I have to say that this collection is the game(s) I'm looking forworard the most this gen till now. I mean, its like a new game to me, and Ive never played Halo because never had the opportunnity (never had an Xbox before and neither knew someone next to me who had).

It was really great news when I knowledge about this collection!
 
Mine downloaded overnight while in standby. I'm at 59.1 gb, but it uninstalled my skull preorder bonus. I reinstalled it and i'm good to go.

If you haven't gotten it yet, I wouldn't worry right now. The game doesn't release for a few days, so you'll get it eventually.

But if you don't have it by Sunday, I would worry.

Took me days to download Halo MCC's 40+ GB, partially because of my shitty U-verse speed, but mainly because it seemed to reset every time my XBone went into sleep mode, even though I had set it to continue downloading. I ended up having to just leave it fully on for two almost days. I assume it has something to do with my wireless modem. Anyway as soon as I get home I'm going to turn on the XBone and leave it on til the patch is in.

That is one of the issues. You can't really force the download, it has to begin downloading in sleep mode.

D'ed it all right but I'm stuck right after I click Find Game. Something like download updated data for matchmaking starts and goes on forever apparently :(

I've still not gotten my patch update. My MCC pre-load is still sitting at 45GB installed pretty much. Tried restarting, tried leaving my Xbox One off for a while (with auto downloads on), tried leaving my Xbox One on for a while. Nothing.

I think they are staggering the release. I got my patch last night while my co-worker got his about 2hrs ago.
 
Mine grabbed it overnight, sometime late. Says 59.1GB whenvI click 'Manage Game'. Updated space still not showing in game details.

I'm sure we'll all be fine by Monday, guys.
