I decided to pre-order this on PSN about an hour and half ago, download was going swimmingly and would have taken 40 minutes, but halfway through it all changed and it's now sitting at 34 hours. Any suggestions? I have a download speed of 50 mbps.
It is really, really bad right now. Since the 2.0 update downloading has been completely fucked up, but right now in particular it is abysmal. I have been trying to redownload the Evolve Alpha, and I am getting around 200kbps when I usually get around 7MB/s (well, before 2.0 anyway).
 
Any video of the 360/ps3 versions? I am a sucker for last gen ports. I love to see how they turn out.

I was the same way with Wii ports last gen. I loved the black ops and MW3 ports to Wii. It was so bizarre that these games could run on what was basically gamecube hardware and aside from looking ugly played mostly the same.

any one know how to get faster download speeds on xbox one? should be 15-20 mbps and it keeps going down to around 3-4. its frustrating.
 
UK'ers, is Tesco the cheapest? I read it's £40 there (PS4) and a fiver more at ASDA. Anywhere else cheaper?
I finish work in an hour and will pick it up on the way home, ASDA is closer...but saving a fiver. Hmmm....or more if its cheaper somewhere else.

Oh my God, I'm not the only one.

So, I tell my gf I'm going to start playing at 9pm. What does she decide she's going to do while I'm playing ? Stream an HD movie.

Come on baby, we don't have that kind of bandwidth, how about a BluRay ?

Right!?

Wii Versions of 360/PS3 games were so amazing to me.

To think that a version of MW3 could have been done on hardware that wasn't far removed than what ran Timesplitters and the Original red faction(PS2) is fascinating to me.

That version of Black Ops 1 on Wii was done really well. It played fine just with some framerate issues.

watched a bit of 360 gameplay and it looks mostly the same, just flatter and with lots of effects and geometry removed. Reminds me of how those Wii ports felt back in 2008 and 2009, actually.

For a 360 game it looks great and keeps a fairly steady fps throughout.

I've played the 360 and xbone version, its uglier, but plays the same.

Yeah, im sure they could probably port a version of this to the original Wii if they really wanted to. It's not like anything about the gameplay actually demands any more CPU or GPU power than what it would have on hand.

Maybe just with a lower player count. I bet they'd sell a 10k of them if they were still putting them out, lol.

I remember the midnight launch of Black Ops, I had an Xbox 360 Prestige Edition... And a Wii copy. Everyone in line looked so astounded.

When I got home, I didn't even touch the 360 version for a week.

There's just something so interesting and... fun about experiencing last generation ports.

I bought the 360 and Wii version as well the day of launch. Played a lot of the Wii version with IR pointer controls. I really enjoyed playing those games like that, did the same with MW3, but the port wasn't as good. Things were a lot messier on that one.
 
Before it installs the game from disk, it checks for a patch and if there is one, it downloads that first, then it begins the install. Do you have a fast internet connection? It could be that it took a while to download the patch. I have never had a game take more than 30-40min to install from disk (yeah, Xbox One game installs are pathetically slow), so it could be the patch if your download speed is slow.

I am getting the disk version myself in a few hours. I am not the biggest COD player, but I like the Single Player games and will play a bit of MP, but not too much. Most of my games I get digital unless it is a title that I am unsure of, which leaves me the option for trade-in.

I have a good, if not decentish, broadband speed, so why it's taking an age is beyond me. A few minutes after posting my last post in here, it told me it was ready to start. Booted it up and played the first level. Game wouldn't let me go onwards after that.

Currently letting it install more. It's currently sitting at 35 percent. OUR NEW, ALWAYS-ON FUTURE! \o/
 
I got so excited too...
Why would you lie to me like that ):

Just got a System message saying I can now use advanced warfare but after quiting out of my destiny match it still says an hour. Stupid ps4...
 
Watching the streams.....man this game looks fast. Like they have the speed slider up to 150% compared to past cods. Seems a bit off putting for me. Hope it turns out good though.

It's a good thing I heard about the free PS3 digital upgrade. I'll be ready for any Black Friday deals.

Downloading the patch right now, going to see if any lobbies are going.

Just played one of my last or maybe my last Ghosts match. Actually kind of had fun, got the Predator killstreak right at the end of the match, did pretty well. Some guy was asking who was getting the game. That match made me pretty excited for tomorrow though.

Go to the network settings, choose go offline, wait few seconds, then go online again. This will might waken up your download speed.
