    Sure no probs. I'll send you one there.

    At this rate, if I start charging €1 per invite I'll be a millionaire by the end of the year :D

    Cheers mate, much appreciated :)

    Performance over the last few beta updates this week has taken a massive dive, has anyone else noticed freezes and slow app load times?

    what does it say under enrollment in the preview app? takes a few days to change from pending once it's been installed. Then keep an eye on your messages on xbox for a code for EA.

    Took me 4 days, the thing may launch fully before then.
    It would seem to be something that needs to launch pretty soon tbh.

    Also since its an app you wouldn't expect the same issues as a beta game.

    I updated my Xbox last night and HAD to reinstall all my games!!!! I've started with Dead Rising 3 but it won't complete. I can't load my saved game unless it fully completes. Been installing for nearly an hour now. It's 3/4's done but hasn't moved in the last 40 mins. Is this common??? Why has the update done this??

    Make sure the code isn't the same. I got the same EA Access message twice with the same code.

    Are you installing that from a disc? If so disconnect the internet and see if that speeds it up, it's likely downloading a 8gb update to DR3.

    Wasn't there a 13 gb for DR3 as well, one of the reasons I stayed away from the game.

    The reason it was so big was because it added the DLC, when you bought the dlc it downloaded a file a couple of Mb's in size.

    Lads it took me nearly 3 weeks to get in, I didn't think I was going to make it, it just seems the luck of the draw on how fast you get in.

    Thank you all I'm also in now, I have also tried some of the quests I noticed there is one for ea access but when it shows the app it says in available, for those that have it is your console set to UK or Ireland
