  1. More than one user on Xbox LIVE GOLD.


    Daft question I know, but something that's not been an issue in the past as my Children where to young.

    Is it possible to have more than one user able to go online with an Xbox LIVE GOLD account, Can my Son sign into his account and play online rather than having to log into my account. Or do I have to purchase a separate Gold account for him?

    Do I need 4 separate GOLD accounts for 4 different family member to be able to play online?

    :)

    Xbox One Price drop

    I think so yes but for a single xbox, it takes the single live account and all users can access features behind the paywall as if they had gold on that console.

    arthurdentpc has 3 xbox's tho, and the old "family" bundle allowed each user to effectively have their own gold membership, so gold on each user which translated to gold on each console, now its gold to anyone on the single xbox....

    So I assume on single xbox families the new system is much better, but on multiple xbox families its not as good. Its not super clear tho how this new gold system will work on xbox one, but it does read like arthur is shafted rather unfairly in this new scenario.

    If that is the case who gets to use their gold account on other machines? They've clearly said that. Just like now, your live subscription follows you to whatever Xbox console you use. So who on that original console can take their account to another console?

    Greetings Lemming!

    The relationship between an Xbox Live Gold account and the Xbox One, will no longer require you to setup each account with a paid subscription, as you would have to do on the Xbox 360.

    Bought used Xbox One and previous owner has 6 months of Live Gold left on his profile does it apply to my new profile?

    Hello Mickey TEEEEEEE,

    Congratulations on your Xbox One, Welcome to the Xbox Community! The only way you're Xbox Live Profile can use that 6 Months of Xbox Live Gold is if that users profile is Downloaded and installed on that Console. Also, the User would need to set that as
    their Home Xbox One. However, if the user Delete their Profile, than the Gold Membership can't be shared. If it is that case, than you will need to purchases a Xbox Live Gold membership for you're Account. With a Gold Membership, you can get Free Games with
    Gold, and Deals With Gold. You can see the Options for Gold here: http://www.xbox.com/live?xr=shellnav#fbid=eZ2sksrNaHc if you have any further questions, please let us know.

    Thank you!

    Xbox accounts

    Hi there,

    It's best to have each user have their own account.

    On an Xbox One, you only need one account with a Live subscription. The account that has the subscription can make a console it's home console so games and the Live subscription will be shared with all users on that console. More info can be found here:

    I cant play games live!!!!!

    Hello there AcademicName004 :)



    In order to play games online you would indeed need to purchase a Gold Membership Subscription. You can find out more information on that via the below link.



    http://www.xbox.com/Live/Join



    There are several benefits of becoming a gold member and one of my favourites is the
    'Games with Gold' program. Users who have a gold membership will receive 2 free Xbox 360 games and 2 free Xbox One games each month. You can learn more about that by Clicking Here.



    The subscription is cheap and more than worth its value.

    I hope this helps.

    Many thanks,

    [quote user="ArmyMedic75"]I can honestly say that ps+ benefits are a greater value than xbox gold.[/quote]PS+ costs me more in time than Live Gold. That alone makes it a worse value for me. The one feature I was paying for, system updates, has stopped happening
    without human intervention. Oh, sure, it downloads the updates, but it doesn't install them after the last bricking fiasco.

    I guess all schools do not teach that $59.99 is more than $49.99. Oh well, enjoy your simple life.
