Download games without network transfer

The network transfer is just a way to transfer files without having to redownload them. It doesn't have anything to do with game licenses.

Games are digital and over 50 GB to install.

As my transfer is limited I dont want to use by other account my whole GB limit...

So if I understand correctly, your only reason for not sharing all your games is your download limit?

In that case, you can either use the
network transfer to send the game from one console to the other through your home network, without costing you any download traffic, or you could copy the game(s) to an external USB drive, and plug the drive into the other console.

As long as you have the other console set as your Home Console, the console will then unlock the copied games and everyone can play that game on the other console.

If the other person also owns the game, the game will be unlocked for them without having to download it, if you copy it over via network transfer or USB drive, and you don't have to set the other console as your Home Console.

So until I Launch the game, it doesn't trigger the save files to download? Weird. I guess I'll try that real quick.

And they need to make that clearer as the "Network Transfer" process makes it Sound like the saved files also transfer. I still like the option to manage your saves, Even if that only means to upload/download manually (without being In the game).

running 2 xbox ones on the same BB connection should be ok, it is just the downloads but you can download to one and have that transfer to the other if you enable network transfer under network settings, this would save having to download the games twice..

Hi,

Network transfer can transfer all of your games to a different console, both disc based installs and downloaded games.
