Master Chief Collection Update Help

[OneOarInTheWater]

I installed the disc, but it won't let me play it until the 15gb update is downloaded. So I'm guessing you need that to play offline?

Yup, best to let it all download and install before you start anything.

No, you need to install the 15GB it includes the rest of the game. Mostly just the multiplayer and extras. All that's on the disc is just the campaigns and customization with what little they could throw in of extras and multiplayer.

 

After 20% is downloaded of the update, you can play the game. But you can't access Multiplayer or Extras. However, Campaign is still acessible along with Halo CE multiplayer. That's it, nothing else you can really do.

 

You are also not able to play Halo 4 multiplayer, even though the progression bar says 100% for Halo 4 and Halo 3. You have to have all 100% before you can play it. You're best solution is to download it and go find something else to distract you, otherwise you're going to be waiting a long time.

 

However you do it, that is your way. Just note if you don't install the update, you're restricted to campaign and Halo CE multiplayer only. You can't play anything else.

 

Hope this helped.
