Great Post!

> Thanks for the post. I could go wired, but that would require a few cords. Also, wireless is only off by very very few in stats. My wireless more or less reads exactly what my PC speed tests are. I always get 0 packet loss with wireless, so there is no need for improvement there. Wired helps with consistency, but I’m confident enough with wireless for now.

Because you’re not downloading AC4 you’re installing it from the disc.
My college just got outfitted with Google Fiber the other day, so it shouldn’t take me all too long. Assuming everyone else living here don’t leech too much off the connection…

> Alright, so a lot of people are worried about the 20gig day 1 update. It wont be as big a deal as everyone things it will. I have decided to list some averages for how long it will take you to download the update. Note, these are averages, and many factors come into the equation such as what quality ethernet cables you are using, what other things are going on on your households’ internet connection, if you are on a wired or wireless connection, etc. I will first start things out with a few suggestions to make the process easier for you on Day 1.

> Installing The Game

> Ok, so you are ready to install the game. If you pre-ordered the digital version, hopefully you have already pre-loaded the game and can simply skip this step. If you got the game on disk, I would recommend turning off your system’s internet connection while installing the game so that your system can first focus on installing the disk. To do this, follow these instructions:
>
> From the dashboard, press the Menu button.
> Select “Settings”.
> Select “Network”.
> Scroll down and select “Go offline”. Your console is no longer connected to Xbox LIVE.
> Now, go ahead and install the game.
> Once finished, follow these steps to go back online.
> NOTE: If you have problems installing the game from here, go and delete any previous MCC game install by selecting “My Games and Apps” from the dashboard, locating MCC, pressing Menu, and selecting “Manage Game” and choose to uninstall.

> Enhancing Your Connection

> First things first, make sure you are on a wired connection at least for this update. Wireless connections are convenient and all, but they will always be inferior to wired connections. Updates run on a TCP connection, meaning that whenever packets of data are sent, they are checked to make sure every bit of information is received, and if not, that packet is resent. Wired connections run a lower chance of packet loss.

> Next, try to use CAT6 ethernet cables if able. They are shielded better, and provide a higher bandwidth.
>
> If you have the time, look into Port Forwarding your Xbox One console. There are many guides out there, so I wont waste space here. Just google it.
>
> Finally, make sure you limit all other internet usage while downloading the update. Saying “Well, the game is updating, better go watch Netflix” will lower your overall internet bandwidth (as the video needs to be streamed as well!) and causing your update to download slower. Go watch a DVD or practice how long you can hold your breath.

> Download Times
> So this is the section you probably came here to see. I will list two times. One is just an average download time, and another takes into account an average percentage of overhead. To find out which speed is correct for you, we are going to look at your download speeds. To do this, follow these instructions:
>
> - From the Xbox One dashboard, press Menu and select “Settings”.
> - Choose “Network”.
> - Choose “Detailed Network Statistics”.
> - Take note of your download speed.
> (if you do not yet have an Xbox One and want to check your connection, go to http://www.speedtest.net/ on your computer under the same circumstances as your Xbox will be [wired or wireless])
>
> 1Mbps is the minimum connection for Xbox LIVE, so we’ll start there. Once you have your number, match it up to my timetable below:
>
> Halo: MCC Day 1 Update download time table
>
> So what does this mean for everyone? Well, many if not most Comcast services offer download speeds of between 50Mbps-150Mbps, so if you are on Comcast, you are looking at a download time of roughly half an hour to an hour. Many others though are on a slower connection of around 8Mbps, and may be looking at a download time of around 7 hours, which is a little rough.
Im not worried, i got direct connect at 50 mb up and dwnld , itll be ready when its ready

Oh, nicely then!

They are different because there’s a bunch of other variables involved. Current load on Microsoft servers and network infrastructure, Internet backbone path between you and speedtest being different than between you and the xbox one servers, etc.
Also internally in your house - is your xbox connected wirelessly and the PC wired, etc.
The big unknown here is the load on Microsoft the day of the patch, both servers and network. Doesn’t matter how good your local connection is if Microsoft get’s overloaded on their end. And then there are generally a few other potential choke-points between wherever you are located and Microsoft (ISPs connection to the Internet, shared backbone out of your province/state/country, etc.
My internet is 170MB down, 30MB up, so I’m looking at somewhere in the 15 to 30 minute range assuming all else is equal . . .
I just arranged to bring xbone to work download it here.
I downloaded the game in just over 3 hours so hour and a half aint that bad.
Aaaaannnndd this is why I pre-download MCC
Mine will be 1-2 hours
I have a 17.98MBPS DL speed so I’m estimating 2.5 hours for me:)
Does anybody else experience much slower speeds on the Xbox One in comparison to any other devices in the home?
When I test speeds, I get around 15mbps, but from my phone wirelessly, I get 50mbps.
<div>atleast these are averages,i can download wirelessly about a 20 gb game in about half an hour and i have 30 Mb/s but the router is right beside meh xb1</div>

i actually jsut tested to make sure and i actually got almost 80 Mb/s on my xb1 and everything else is 30
no wonder i was only having so little troubles with MCC
download
I have Cablevision. How long will that take?
I love how everyone’s upset that the download will take them like 7 hours, and I’m just there laughing my head off because it’s gonna take me like 48 hours. XD
My connection isn’t the best, lol.
Thank you so very much for the post OP. I can now guarantee that multiplayer will be available for me once I’ve finished playing through the 4 campaigns.
