There's 4 episodes. So his first play through clocked in st 7 hours and his second play through was around 6 hours. So on total from playing the game twice which he recommends he spent ~13 hours with it.

Thank god i switched to CC business.
I feel bad for people still stuck on ridiculous bandwidth caps that should not exist in 2016 let alone a decade ago. How big is the game minus this? Even if it's 20-25gb that's almost 100GB For 1 single game.

As far as i know there is no limit to the size of externals is there? I'll have to upgrade because i don't have 100+ GB left on this TB drive.

"Within the first week" is what the terms said. So we'll probably have to play the Xbone version first while waiting for the codes to come in
Digital download, plus episode pack is 120GB. That's a really large amount of data. Someone may correct me, but is there another single game with that large of a download? I can't think of one.
And Quantum break isn't an MMO, or sandbox game, it's a eight-and-half hour, single-player experience.
"Brutal" is hyperbole, of course. But that's a big download.
As I said in a previous post, there's something up with the way the Xbox One treats two installed discs for the same title. This was hinted at a few months before MCC released.
I'm not sure if this got straightened out in a recent Xbox update but either way, the plan for this game was set before the issue was straightened out (if it ever will be).
That's an interesting theory, and it would explain why MCC didn't ship with a second disc. I wonder if this is some sort of holdover from the pre-180 Xbox One design?
It may be. Not really sure. It's definitely strange though.

How do you know it's eight and a half hours?

Well the idea definitely comes from pre-180 design, but it's a cool risk to see live-action videos tailor made to your own choices.

Going to stream it even if I had all the internet speeds in the world. 75GB's of cutscenes is just killer on the HDD, not worth it.

Is the pack just a bunch of scenes that the game chooses depending on your actions?
Anyway, holy shit! The game plus the patch plus that monstrosity has gotta be over 100 GB right?
RIP 500 GB HDD only users.

120GB actually
I've heard different time estimates from others who have played the game through, but I'm using the estimate from this post earlier in the thread:

They are giving you the option to download if you must. Streaming shouldn't be a problem for the vast majority of people.

Same. People can skip the scenes if they want to. I'm gonna stream me playing, kill more bandwidth

Not sure if going to download or stream, but I'm getting a hard drive today. Held out long enough.
ez my internet not even gonna break a sweat.
Holy shit how is 88 Minutes of footage so damn big
Fuck me sideways. And I actually thought mine was alright:
Go atleast 2tb tho.
I'm curious to what you heard? Does it check out to this estimate at least a bit?
I'll do that too...
I got an external 4TB harddrive before the release of Xbox One just because I decided that at 50GB per game would yield me around 80 games (rounding off everything) for a generation (5-6 years). Best decision I have made. I'm still not at 50% (and I did download all the GWG) because of my buying habits. I've been digital the whole time. No regrets.
Just get 4TB/5TB and just don't worry about it for a while. And when that fills up, buy another (since there are 3 USB slots). Really good investment.

Join the club, we've got t-shirts.I want google fiber so bad... I'm stuck here with 2mb per second downloads

In my country there's a provider "a la google fiber" which provides the same internet speed.
They installed their ftth in my street, all the way... on the other side of it.

Got two external drives plugged into my X1 - no big deal.
Looking forward to the game.

Steaming takes a lot of bandwidth, and with caps I just won't even bother.
I've heard 5 acts, with about two hours per act. I'm sure it would take me longer than eight hours I tend to take my time.
Thanks !
Wait was that including the live action scenes?
This sounds like a short game

how long will this take me
Legit question? I have a similar speed but a little slower than you and I get roughly 30~Gb per day if I leave a download running without much interruption. So at a guess I'd say two and a half days for the fmv's and four days for the whole 120gb package if you get the game digitally. This is 24/7 round the clock downloads on my PC on ethernet though and I have no idea how the Xbox performs in standby and downloading. It should be around that ball park though or a bit less since you've got the slight edge over my speeds.

So 11-12 hours with the tv show episodes. That's pretty good if true, especially with the replayability of the game.
Wow worse Internet than mine exists?
If the PC version doesn't have a range of quality options for it's videos it's going to be basically unplayable for me.

Wow. Those are insane speeds. I've only 74mb down and 15 up lol.
Yes, that's what the guy wrote over there.
Didn't we have that person on GAF who played it and said the first act alone was 2h15m, and it was the shortest act out of the 5?

Damn those Data Caps. I dont have a data cap now, I just switched providers. But 3 months ago, 75GB would have been half my data cap for a month.
Hey, I live in the US and Broadband prices and packages suck.

I'm pretty sure I remember this also, I know some people posted in the DF thread that the game has a lot to it, whatever that means exactly.
I need to re-play Alan Wake with all this Remedy discussion...

So about 6 hours of gameplay without rush.
I don't know?
I'm just curious like everyone, the guy on the french forum could be pulling the numbers out of his ass afaik. I feel it's like every big games in story driven genre, where days before it comes out you start hearing playtimes going from 5 hours to 14..
Someone else here heard "about 2 hours per act".

Makes my 50mb/s download speeds look like shit.
