I have Madden 20 downloaded with EA access, when I went into the game I started playing the pro bowl. I decided I didn't want to play this game in about the 2nd quarter and quit.At that point the game was 24% installed. I then waited a long time and got only a percent or 2 so I went back in and played the entire pro bowl, and still was only at roughly 30%. I left the game turned on my PS4 this morning for about 1.5 hrs and I am now to 48%. Did I do something wrong by quitting the pro bowl originally? Why is it taking so many hrs to install the game after the download has been completed? Thank you for the help

I am currently at 52% installed and I have had the game on for 3 hrs I have over 200gb of free space. Please help, this cant be right. At this rate it will take 6 hrs to install leaving me with 4 hrs of game play.

@Kayronknows Did you have enough space on your hard drive?Are you on PS4 or XB1?

@evergreen_ff Quitting the pro bowl shouldn't have any effect on the installation. If your console is running a little low on hard drive space, the install can take longer. Something I will suggest you try after this game is fully installed is to Rebuild Database as follows: Reboot your console in Safe Mode and choose option 5, Rebuild database That should speed your console up generally but also speed up future game installs. Thanks.

The 10 hours doesn’t count install time so when it’s done you will have 10 hours of time to play

I mean I know it does because I keep having to stop to go to work and everytime i restart the game it tells me how much play time i have left currently less than 7 hrs. I can only play the pro bowl, the game is installing I already did the download so I dont see why it would be internet speed either. It is just an install.

It’s because you sent quitting the game once you are done

And I would prefer to not turn the system off before the install was done but I am sorry I have a job and a kid I dont have 6 straight hrs to wait for a game to install. Thats the point of this, it doesnt seem like the file is working correctly or something. I assume you installed the game did it take hrs for you? I was just at home for a lunch break for a little over an hour I went from 52% installed to 57%..... Had to turn it off again to go back to work, not sure what else I am supposed to do there.

This has been like this for hours. I reinstalled and everything. This is a day old console out of the box 1tb and this is what I get...i need a reasonable fix that doesn't make me redownload everything again or I'll be requesting my money back sir. As a lifetime madden fan this is unacceptable
