    Just bought new One S bundle with GOW4 and can't play it


    Got my One S today, set it up and downloaded GOW4. After waiting 4 or 5 hours for the game to download I tried to start a game and I couldn't set up a save file because it said the connection to Xbox Live was lost. When I go to the home screen I can clearly
    see that I'm connected but the game won't recognize the connection and won't allow me to start a save file.

    This is frustrating, it's the only game I have, I had thought I was getting a hard copy of the game but it turned out to be a download that took hours and now doesn't work. If this was any other company I would have boxed all this crap up and sent it back
    already.

    The game seems to allow me to connect to something called Horde but since I have zero experience with the game I'm not interested in jumping into group play.

    Please help.

    :)

    Hey CaledoniaSky! You may want to try a reinstall of the game to see if that helps out. Steps can be found

    here
    . Post back and let me know how it goes!

  5. I get the same thing... Whenever I try to play a solo campaign it says ERROR connection lost and won't start the game... What a bunch of bull. They just say to uninstall and reinstall a 65 GB game. Not that convenient of a solution that does absolutely
    nothing Microsoft.

    Hi,

    Let us investigate this further, we need additional information, please see the questions below:

    1. Are you trying to connect your Xbox Live account through an Xbox console or on a Windows PC?

    2. Are you connected to the internet via wireless or wired?

    Regards.

    Have not recieved my Gears of War Collection for purchase of Gears of War 4

    I'm also still waiting for my codes. I bought a new console bundle with GoW4 a week ago.

    I have played the game on both Xbox One S and Pc, so "Xbox live" is aware I own the game, and it was activated during the promotion period.

    I was informed by Microsoft support, that the codes would be sent (as a message) over Xbox live once GoW4 has been played. Yet here I am ?
