Xbox Physical Bugged or Incomplete?
Hey I just picked up my copy's of ME Legendary (BOTH PS4 and Xbox One) and I'm just so confused with the Xbox One Version.
It's 2 Blu-Rays like PS4 but I seem to only have about 700MBs Install off the Installation Disc and then the rest off the Play Disc up to 21GBs TOTAL. Then there is a 9GB Day One Patch, but it seems that Mass Effect 2 & 3 have to be fully DOWNLOADED at an additional 66GBs or so... Like WTF? 🤷 For perspective the PS4 Version Installs BOTH Discs for about 86GBs Total then the Day One Patch which is 11GBs.
Like did EA legit just WASTE a Blu-Ray here 🤔 I'm probably gonna return the game if this is the case and just buy the Xbox Version whenever it hits the Bargain Bin UNLESS (and I'm HOPING) I just have a bugged copy or some *???
Dropping this here for others. I’ve added it to a few other threads too :
I figured this out...... finally. It's not simple.
So..... to install the ME 2 & 3 from the discs you have to:- Make sure you have auto-updates turned off (under settings)
- First install the game from the GAME DISC (ignore install disc)
- You will then have to go online to validate the install (WTF EA) before you can do anything
- You'll still get asked to download the Day 1 update - DECLINE THIS INSTALL
- Set your Xbox to offline under network settings
- Load the game
- From the menu, select install for Mass Effect 2.... it will install and eventually ask for Installation Disc
See.... simple.....
I hope this helps someone like me. If you have data caps it's best to avoid large downloads, where possible
