Cod black ops 3 help

[Mr Plums]

Hi, i dont play computer games because i have a life, but if someone could help me with something for the lad it would be really appreciated.

He has formatted his storage device and tried to install the game back but it wont install past 44%, he has tried for the past two days.

He wants me to buy the game again because he thinks its the disc thats broken, is this right, or is it something else?

Thanks for any help.

Tom.

What console is it on?

Sorry mate i forgot, its xbox 1.

A quick google suggests it's a common issue with no apparent fix. Lots of people just saying to keep trying and it will work, eventually.

Sounds like typical Microsoft

Noob.

Noob.

Any answers mate?

 

[McGherkin]

Yes.

I have no idea.

That's my answer. Is the disc even scratched?

Any marks on the disc.

On Xbox 1 its possible that if the disc has any marks or scratches it can install up to a certain point and then not be able to continue (because it cant read the disc), I had this issue with one of my games. If you've bought it from a shop i would just take it back. Thats all I can think of.

Just checked mate, a few little scratches but nothing major, could this be the problem?

It was a brand new game we bought quite a while back now, and he come downstairs earlier asking for us to buy it again with a naughty annoying smirk on his face.

So if i buy him the game again alls well, will it install ok?

I would say get a new disc and tell him not too leave it out to get scratched.

 

[McGherkin]

You could get discs repaired at GAME stores if they weren't too badly scratched... I have no idea if a) that's still the case or b) GAME even exists any more.

Just gone mad at him, got the disc and not a single scratch mate?

 

[Daz...]

Clean it with some toothpaste. If that doesn't work then frisbee it down the garden.

The xbox one games are blu ray discs or something so they are harder to scratch but even the tiniest marks could affect it, they can remain playable but cant be re-installed (same issue i had) give it a proper good look.

First pic top left of the disc looks chipped? Could just be the pic though
