Feb 02, 2019 Issue with game updates Xbox one s I'm having issues with updating games I'm trying to do a 14gb update on black ops, I left it to run the update overnight but when I've returned the the Xbox it's only done 300mbs of the update.
The latest Xbox One system update began rolling out Thursday, and it brings a host of new features to the console, chief among them the ability to get into games more quickly.
FastStart, which Microsoft announced during its E3 2018 press briefing, lets players jump into a game after downloading a small portion of it. Here’s how the company described the feature in an Xbox Wire article: “FastStart works by identifying which files are needed to begin playing and prioritizes the download of those files first, enabling you to quickly jump into full-fidelity gameplay while the remainder of your title downloads in the background.”
If that sounds familiar, it may be because both the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 launched with the ability to start playing games while they were being downloaded or installed. Sony refers to the feature as “play as you download,” while Microsoft calls it “ready to start.” However, Microsoft clarified in an FAQ that FastStart is different from “ready to start” because the latter option “requires publisher work,” whereas the former does not. The company also noted that “ready to start” varies from game to game — in some cases, players only see a menu or loading screen while the rest of the download continues, which barely counts as starting to play.
On the other hand, FastStart will make it possible to start playing in half the time compared to waiting for the download to finish, according to Microsoft. (That’s an average improvement across all games that support the feature.) To be clear, FastStart doesn’t actually increase your download speed; it just makes it so your console downloads the files you need to get started before it downloads the rest of the game. Microsoft recommends a minimum downstream bandwidth of 20 Mbps for optimal FastStart performance.
At the moment, 23 games support FastStart: 17 on the Xbox One, three on the Xbox 360 and three on the original Xbox. You can see the full list below. Microsoft noted that FastStart currently works only with English-language versions of the games in question.

Xbox One Wont Download Game Updates
The rest of July’s Xbox update contains relatively minor additions, although many players will surely appreciate them. One is an expansion of the Pins section called Groups, which allows users to organize their games and apps into custom categories, and add them to their console’s dashboard. (For people who use multiple Xbox One consoles, Groups will sync across all of them.) Another helpful addition is a search shortcut: Users can now press the Y button anywhere on the Xbox One dashboard to start searching for content.
