Yeah, it's unfortunate, but expected from just about every game launch nowadays.

To be fair, it was released last week if you had pre-ordered a digital version, so everything could be ready to go immediately. I started playing a bit past midnight, after finishing up an Oryx raid.

Yes. This was known.

Day 1 patches are pretty much the norm now, and they are getting bigger and bigger every time. Remember that the MCC was a 62gig install with an 18gig Day 1 patch.

And Forge ain't even released yet.

Between the two games, Halo is pretty hungry for your ~323 gigs that the Xbone has available. Might want to invest in an external.

Yea, I thought about getting using an external, but as little as I play on there, I will probably just strech it out. I really only play MCC and now halo 5.

Edit: And I imagined MCC would be, based on the sheer amount of content you were getting.

Did they say before it was going to be 9 GB?

They did, but you'd have to be following the news closely.
