My forza is stuck at 0% installing

it does stay there for a while, it will move on though, although quite slowly, then builds up speed.

Cheers

Just doing the update.. Hopefully postman will come soon with my Forza...

 

[Ad]

Landed 40mins ago and then forza 20mins after that.

Havent had a kinetic before, but it is huge and is too big for my flat screen tv so a bracket will be required - I have just balanced it on for now. The OH is going to moan something chronic when she sees it.

Update took no longer than a couple of mins with virgin Fibre optic its just rebooting.

 

[BRUN]

Hopefully postie will bring my battlefield soon

Just got my Forza Steelbook, just waiting for the console now

 

[Longy]

It's arrived at work, I thought sod it i'll update it while at work so it's sat on my desk now updating. Play some forza5 at lunch time

[Addicted]

[Daz.]

FFS I could have gone out all morning!

Holy s**t the Kinect sensor is big.

 

[Brand86]

I am a bit nervous about where the Kinect sensor will go. I don't want an eye sore sitting on my TV unit all the time...how are people installing them?

 

[Luigi172]

All this installing I haven't even played a game yet!

 

[mikey_weav]

After resigning to the fact i was gonna have to wait till close to christmas to get myself a console, a friend has just contacted me offering his Game Pre-order as he couldnt raise the money in time!
Hopefully, I'll have one home and installed by this time tomorrow!! Can't wait :approve:

 

[Daz.]

FINALLY!

He's just told me annoyingly I was the last one on his run - It's been one of those weeks. I'm expecting it not to work now.

Hey guys how long should it take to bind the controller?

I turn the Xbone on and it shows a screen of the controller with the Xbox logo flashing, so I hold that button and the controller flashes, but nothing else is happening?

 

[Longy]

Mine just worked out of the box?

 

[Addicted]

What did you do, just hold on the controller button or press it or what? Unless I'm being stupid or something?

All I have done is turn the console on and turn the controller on!

 

[Longy]

Just held the button to switch it on and it worked from then on.

Cheers that did the trick, its bound now

Updating now!

Some crazy problems with the new console.

The average wait time is about 1.5 hrs.

Everything seems to be working fine for me although locating the kinect isn't easy. I've ordered a TV mount but it hasn't arrived yet but still the thing is really heavy and I have to get the PS4 camera on there as well yet! Might need to buy a corner shelf to go above my TV.

One question though regarding the Netflix app.....

I installed it and it loaded up but appeared to use my Xbox Live account as the log-in and I don't have a subscription to Netflix on that email address. So I selected to log in as someone else and entered the email address I actually use for Netflix.

Pretty obvious yeah?

But then it asked for a password.............but wouldn't accept my Netflix password (that matched the email addy) as it wanted me to log in with my Live password! So I used the Live password and I am logged in. The settings say I am logged in with my Netflix email address but it doesn't show my recently watched shows etc so I am not sure if I am logged in properly or not. Hope in 30 days it doesn't stop working...

Surely if that worked anyone with my Netflix email address could log into my Netflix account on their XBox?!

 

[Scutch]

Can the Kinect sensor not sit below the TV?

 

[Addicted]

Don't see why not Scutch, mine is below my monitors at the moment and works fine!

 

[Scutch]

Cheers mate. Just a lot of folk having problems mounting them on the top of the TV. I have a corner unit so wouldn't have an issue with a base mount.

 

[Toypop]

I feel mine is too close to my centre speaker and it prevents it hearing my voice commands.

Btw - for the Day one games (aka Forza or Fifa) does anyone know what % we need to have installed to play, or is it just 100%?

26% works on Fifa, but the selection of teams in limited.

Just set mine up so when I say 'Xbox turn off' or 'Xbox on' it turns the amp and TV on/off, really nice touch.
