Beginner/Nub questions about Xbox Live...

What happens to a Gamertag that allows its Xbox Live subscription to run out, more specifically with regards to the name's availability to other users? (Like, is there a "grace period" where no one can use the name, to give the person time to get back on Xbox Live with that account?)

Is there some kind of rebate for a second Xbox Live account belonging to the same person / credit card?

If going that route (2 Xbox Live accounts on the same console), will there be anything associating the two in the eyes of the public?

Thanks.

How can you tell if an account is the primary account? I know these are total noob questions I've only had my xbone for like 2 months.

They can player multiplayer on the same game IF the following conditions are met:

1) You must, obviously have two controllers. lol

2) Both children must have their own Microsoft Account with an Xbox LIVE Gold Subscription.

3) Your TV must meet the game's standards for display. (Certain games require that the quality of the picture be at a certain level. Ex. Minecraft requires televisions with an adequate display size.)

To add, the games will need to support two player splitscreen mode (not all games support that)

As far as I know GTA5 doesn't have a splitscreen mode

5) If the children have anything but Adult settings on the account, they will be promted with either a passcode , or a warning that the game cannot be played. Easily changed from the dashboard of course.

I only have 2 XBOX One consoles. The XBOX Live account is associated with my account which I use for parental controls on my two sons accounts. They each use their own separate account to play on their own XBOX One console.

- 2 XBOX One consoles

- my admin account with XBOX Live subscription

- my two sons have their own accounts they use to play on each of their XBOX One Consoles.

On xbox one all accounts are covered by one live account, on 360 you can have 2 accounts just set up his own profile.

hi i will try to help you as best i can then

You have 2 console 3 account

Account 1 (with subscription)
Account 2
Account 3

Console A
Console B

Account 1 that owns the subscription will classify console B as the primary one from that all accounts on console B will have access to the subscription

which means that account 2 or 3 on console B will have xbox live and all

in return Account 1 will be the only one able to use the xbox live on console A

If you want account 2 and 3 to play together, you will need one of the two subscribers
