'Day One' update for Xbox One will take 15-20 minutes to download
In IGN's latest update to its ongoing "Ask Microsoft Anything" Q&A, Microsoft's Xbox One Chief Platform Architect Marc Whitten was asked about the file size of the Day One update and how long it will take to install. Whitten stated;
We are optimizing Xbox One so that the day one update is as fast as possible. While we’re still finalizing the details, we expect that the download will take between 15 and 20 minutes for most users.
That's still going to be a rather lengthy amount of download time and it suggests that the Day One patch will be quite large. It's going to be an interesting test of Microsoft's servers as all those new buyers of the Xbox One download the update at around the same time.
Whitten also indicated that, just like the Xbox 360, Microsoft will update the Xbox One's dashboard once or twice a year following the launch, stating, " ... we will continue to learn from what customers want and love to iterate on the best dashboard experience." Whitten was noncommittal in terms of the Xbox One getting its own Twitter and Facebook apps, stating, "While I can’t comment on the specifics of these two partners right now, at launch you will be able to access Twitter and Facebook through the Internet Explorer web browser on Xbox One at launch."

Yeah while it's loading I'll unbox all of my games.
Smart thinking dr-j, and then after that it will be time to achieve my hunt...well at least for you :)

That's really not that long of a wait.
Considering people have been waiting years for a new console 15 to 20 minutes isn't going to hurt

DawMentalist Thats how long it takes to download CoD DLC'S, I guess it's fine.
Thats actually really good. A whole system update takes as much as a map pack does.
i can't believe that it will be that quick

-SkillzMentalist-Skillz There has to be an update and it really isn't bad
I wonder why they just don't deliver an updated console, it would make things alot easier.
That would be a lot smarter to do. They are to lazy too do it though
The consoles are already packaged you idiot. For them to update every console, they have to unpack every single console and individually update it, then repackage it. It would take them weeks to do this but instead, they let you do it for 15-20 minutes of your time. They optimize shit daily within the code so there's a huge difference in code from last month to now.
