[XSX] BF2042 won't install, update, or launch
Xbox Series X here. When I insert the BF2042 for XSX disc, I get a popup saying a 24 GB update is necessary to play the game. When I tap Update, the dialog disappears and nothing else happens. The BF...
@EA_LeeuwConsole is fully up to date. Other games install, run, and update just fine.
UPDATE: I figured it out. The problem is that whenever X/S Enhanced games are installed to an X/S console with an external drive set as the default installation location, the installation silently fails as described. To fix the issue:
- If the game tile is present in My Games & Apps, select it and uninstall it completely
- Eject the game disc
- Enter Settings -> System -> Storage
- Set the internal or expansion SSD as the default installation location
- Insert the game disc. Installation should start
- When installation is complete, launch the game. This should produce an update prompt.
- Tap Update
- The game update should download and install normally
- When the update is complete, the game should be playable normally
