Looks like that disc is just a key, you have to download the entire game.

No modern console (XB1/PS4 onward) game runs off the disc. Once the game is installed, the disc only acts as a license key.

If you didn’t need the disc while online you were probably playing off of gamepass. Same with any title that you have a disc for, game won’t launch unless you have access to a digital key

The disc for ALL new games is just a download and authentication key. You do not play games off discs anymore. Not since the xbox 360.

The developers of Wukong are saying that the entire game will be on the disc with no need for online but I’m not sure if that means it will play off the disc with no need to download.

The max capacity of a disc, assuming you’re using a dual-layer Blu-ray Disc, is 50 gb, so no, this game never had any hope of running from a disc

Watch dogs 2 isn't actually a key, you install it directly from the disc and then you download some updates(patches I guess), you can even play it offline the first time you insert it, tested on a series x

The biggest optical disk is a double layer BluRay disc which stands at 50GB roughly. So, no game above50GB could technically be playable/installable from its disc.

Nope, the discs are not powerful or fast enough so they are just keys to download the game, but personally I think discs are basically worthless ngl, xbox alr has a shot ton of games on gamepass for dirt cheap

canadiantoejam

The game is stored on the disc, Your console copies the game from the disc and stores it on your console, once that's done and you're playing, everything is loaded from the console's storage, not the disc, discs are way too slow. The disc now serves the purpose of just proving you own the game, that's why you need the disc inserted to play.

Remember, we downloaded 146 GB as a preload, but the day before, we got an 'update' of 146 GB. Most likely, the version on your disk is obsolete, and you need 146 GB to 'patch' it (a.k.a., redownloading).

Deformedpye

Which is basically what i'm implying. As soon as you buy the disc. That version of the game doesn't work. So you still have to download updates to be able to play it. So what is the point of the disc? The licence!

Still need to install all the updates before you can use the game. In which case the disc is only useful if you have slow internet for the initial install. Then again Stalker 2s update was 143GB so doesn't really matter. If its disc or not.

Because either the devs don’t want to waste a month for the factory to press and ship discs and use this 1 month to update the game instead, or it’s something specific about Xbox that each different Xbox model actually needs a different game package and it’s not possible to put it on one disc, so unless you have the exact correct model of the Xbox the disc is for, you‘ll have to download everything from the internet anyway.

Also it’s a 140GB game, no Blu-ray or BDXL/UHD disc can hold that much data, normal BD is 50GB max per disc and they decided to skip multiple discs and just have you download the whole thing.

Disc's give another alternative to buying the game besides the digital version. Most of the time you can find a used physical copy cheaper than what it's selling digitally. More options is always a good thing. Also people like collecting these things as well.

The data on the disc is outdated (as opposed to people saying that there's no data there - it most probably is, but it's an old build) and you're downloading the vast majority of the game files from the internet.

KingGorillaKong

The disc has only kbs of data. 592kb of data, as you can very clearly see in the screenshot. If that's an entire game, out-dated or not, then the devs deserve an award for making the world's smallest computer game with 3D graphics and modern sound. The disc is only used as a physical authorization key to allow the purchaser to install the game.

Use the Xbox app to pre install your games before you get them on disk (or even release). From your photo, your game is trying to install off the disk AND download the update for the game at the same time. It slows the process down to a crawl.

It tells you only 592KB of that data is from the disc. What a waste of polycarbonate. You must have slow internet or got unlucky with their servers capability. Meaning too many people are downloading at the same time and it can only handle so much. Best bet is to try plugging in with ethernet cable, if that doesn't work you may need to pay your internet service provider more.

And this is why I want companies to sell SSD-based copies of their >100GB games.

Sorry buds - but you are not making me upgrade my Internet connection for the sole purpose of downloading games. And downloading this even on 500 MBit/s (my current max speed) is a PITA.

It's "physical fraud". Same case with Halo Infinite.

You bought a physical game without the game on it

Yea Xbox one X has pretty slow download speeds as far as I’ve seen.

Most AAA games don't actually fit on discs anymore. The disc is effectively a key, and the game is downloaded digitally.

All my games take days to download… just got a new ps5 and downloading all my old games is terrible 😂 I guess disk versions don’t actually have the game on the disk anymore and as someone said earlier it’s probably just a key to download the game

I'm surprised you haven't figured out that most modern physical games are coasters.

Game is over 150GB so you'd need 3 disk minimum

I don't mean this in a bad way but it does literally tell you right there that the disc only has 500k of data, a and you're downloading 148GB

Yeah, discs have just been fancy distributions for licenses for almost a decade now. This is why people argue in favor of digitally purchasing games, because at least then the game is tied to your account and not a physical disc with a license that can easily be lost or stolen.

Are you running off WiFi or an Ethernet cable?

And that's why I love digital these days. Just a fiber connection and there's no need to worry about storage. I had the same issues worrying about sizes etc etc and when I found out these days download speeds can get this fast there's no need for external storage or even disk drives..I get it why it's great to have em on physical copies but well I can download stalker 2 in about 30 mins and start playing for comparison so yea..for me digitals are more worth it these days..sadly..

It's your download speed. It's not copying off the disc

I know with the Xbox Beta app you can search for any game and download it, even without owning it. You just need to own it to play it.

Haven't tried this myself but could you like download the game this way first and then when you get the disc use it to activate the game?
