    How to install unlocks when you buy a new xbox and game (BF4)..Still using original account


    In a nut shell I sold my Xbox and BF4 game. My account is still active so I recently purchased another Xbox and BF4. How do I reinstall my unlocks to the new system? Is this a a BF4 question by the way?

    :)

    Now have two Xbox consoles in the house

    Agreed.

    I would download your original account to the new Xbox and set that Xbox as your home console (via Settings app). That way all accounts can play the downloaded games purchased by the original account, and Xbox LIVE gold shares to
    all accounts (No need to buy multiple Xbox LIVE subscriptions or games). Create a new account and put it on the new Xbox. Have one kid only sign in/play on the new account on the new Xbox. And have the other kid sign in and play on the original account
    on the original Xbox. When you purchase games, buy them on the original account. Since the original account's home console is set to the new Xbox, all accounts can play that purchased game. That way you only have to buy 1 game for both consoles, you don't
    have to buy 2 every time.

    The saves on your game should transfer to your new console. If you're talk about DLC it could be found in the "Ready to install" When you click on "Manage game"

  5. Hey there BIGBORE74,

    To clarify, are you playing Battlefield 4 on Xbox One or Xbox 360. Was the new game and console still the same? This sort of thing is tied to your account. Are you also using the same Gamertag on the new console?

    My games were free (xbox live download) but when i try to uninstall and reinstall it says i need to pay money

    When you say that these games were given to you do you mean they were already installed on the xbox when you originally got it?

    Did you buy the Xbox new? Used?

    Gamertag Activity- lets mix ths up a bit :D

    I was just looking for the answer to this. I only have 2 games for xbox 1 Ghost and BF4. I have several achievements unlocked for BF4. When I log into my account to check them out - Xbox shows no activity at all for BF4. It doesn't even list BF4. Are other
    games OK or is it just BF4.I haven't done anything for the achievements in Ghost yet.

    Hi

    All you will need to do is add one of the two Xbox profiles you already have onto the new console and you should be able to continue playing. When loading the profile onto your new console make sure that you load the profile that has the Xbox Live Gold subscription
    onto the console and then leave the profile on the first console with this console also being set as the home Xbox and you shoul dnot need to purchase a second Xbox Live Gold subscription.
