    @vipersting14 ....whats your download speed, everyone has a different one, can't answer your question without knowing your download speed.

    @vipersting14 Ahoy!

    The speed of all this depends on a number of factors, a lot of them out of your control... but it shouldn't take too long to download, you should be able to work this out by working out your internet speed and seeing if the store is giving you the right Mbps. The pending stage is doing a few prechecks at Microsoft's end and on your PC/Xbox to make sure everything will be ok in your environment so depends on the above plus the speed of your PC.

    It really is a hard one to track down causes of slow download/pending speeds.

    @vipersting14 If you are talking about Sea of Thieves then it varies on the overall size on release.

    The latest stress test - my results

    Size - 18.8GB
    My Download Speed - 60Mbp/s
    Actual Download Speed - 20-35Mbp/s
    So that took me to download the game - 01:29:43

    @vipersting14 I saw you updated your post. The Closed Beta + the Stress test is now over, you will not be able to download and access them. Additionally the regular Sea of Thieves game you will not be able to download till 20th March. I hope this has answered your questions!

    I think you mean Mbps because 25-30MB/s would take two minutes.
