    Game sharing issue, need clarification


    My friend and I are game sharing. He recently bought Battleborn Deluxe Edition which comes with the Season Pass. The game downloaded onto my console just fine but it is showing that I have to buy the Season Pass. Do the extras, season pass, and dlc not
    share if you are games sharing?

    :)

    I believe only 1 system can be designated as a Home console per gamertag, but i'm trying to find confirmation of that. As far as i'm aware, if you had 4 Xbox Ones in your house & 4 gamertags who used them, 2 of the 4 would have to be gold for all of them
    to play online at the same time. 2 would be set as Home consoles with the 2 gold tags, & the other 2 could be silver but still play online on those 2 systems.

    From the wording of that article, you can log in on your friends console. That means that console will have gold features, but your home console will still be usable for online. I hope to get some clarification on this soon. So in my thoughts right now....
    I could have two consoles. One is my home console with account A. Then console 2 is upstairs. I can log into number 2 with account A, and use gold while number one(being A's home console) can be played online with account B.

    1. account (A) home but being played with account (B)

    2.account b(not gold) home but being played with (A)

    Anyone can dispute or correct me?

    Why not two home or (A) consoles?

    [/quote]

    Name can only be signed in at one location....

    but I can see this working.... just make sure you buy games on primary console (A)
