    Are you sure it's not installing? You should see a little box on the homepage to the right

    Had moderate for ages when I got the One first but since I started using Homeplugs I've had an open NAT.

    Maybe reboot all network devices including router and power line plugs

    Does anyone know if there's a way to record your mic in game DVR?
    I see there's a setting in the Xbox app for Windows 10, but haven't found anything for the One....

    I'm going to grab it myself Emmet. It's very well spoken of and apparently not overly long, which suits me as the backlog is big enough.

    That's what I was thinking. Play through it with herself.

    Firewatch has a lot of charm, herself and nearly me were in tears making the choices to set up the story in the beginning :(

    hi,

    This is annoying me, I have xbox one account with two family members attached to my MS account (my two kids). They have their own profiles etc but for some reason they cant access multiplayer on Star Wars Battlefront on their own profile they can play local only, its saying that they are not allowed even thought I have their settings as adult unrestricted etc. and are allowed to access multiplayer etc.

    Do they have to set up their own EA account and attached that with their xbox profile, I have the same issue with ubisoft I think R6 Seige and The division. They are using my profile atm

    Assuming you have xbox live gold on your account then go into settings and make the console your home xbox, then they'll be able to play online no problem.

    Are you sure you have allowed the child accounts have full access to online services?

    That's a strange one. Have you any age restrictions in place on what games they can play?

    Yeah game and media content is set at unrestricted so 18+ there must be something I missed but I dont know what:confused: .They are binge watching Dr. Who atm on netfilx so I wont disturb them for now. This has being going on for as long as I can remember and they just used my profile didn't bother me too much. But a bit of spare time now so want to get to the bottom of it.

    That is a strange one. Maybe someone else might be able to think of something else to try.

    EA games don't respect the age settings on the Xbox, which, as you have discovered, is incredibly frustrating.

    There's a workaround, that involves a load of steps, which I have shamelessly stolen from reddit:
    • Create an EA account on the website with a fake DOB so the child is 14+
    • Validate the account via email
    • Run a game like Battlefront and now I'm getting a "you're not permitted to play online" rather than the whole please login crap. I don't know if this was needed, so I'm leaving it here for reference.
    • Download and install the PC/Mac Origin client
    • Log into the origin client
    • Use the Xbox friend finder to link your gamertag to the origin account.

    Yeah, it'll be this most likely, seen it before with other EA games and kid accounts. EA and origin in particular are a steaming pile of ****. Cause nothing but trouble and their tech support is the worst I have ever dealt with.
