multiple profiles access to DLC?

clarkhenry1 · Jan 7, 2019

In ARK, only one profile is able to play a single player game. The other profiles (we have three) on our console are unable to open ARK. When we hit START, and it goes to the start menu and press "single player game", it says DLC content not installed,
but it is. It opens fine for one of our profiles but not the rest. Do I need changes to the profiles, permissions in the game, what? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Not all DLC or add ons can be shared amongst other accounts on a HOME xbox. It maybe you have encountered this with the ARK DLC

No. One console with multiple profiles and only my main profile which i used to download the dlc is able to access it.

Virtually all major DLC's (Mappacks, Arcade games etc.) have the following DRM: Any profile may play the content on the purchasing Xbox. Only the purchasing gamertag can access them on a different Xbox. So if you downloaded his profile on your Xbox, his
profile could access these DLC but yours could not. I would recommend doing a license transfer to your Xbox. If you do this Anyone will be able to play them on your Xbox (as it changes the purchasing Xbox to yours) and he ca still access the DLC on his Xbox
as the purchasing gamertag. Contact Xbox support to perform the transfer, especially since you are doing it with multiple purchasing profiles.

Hi ESH,

Thanks for the reply on what DLC. It is very possible as this is a backward compatible game, that the DLC isn't sharable. You can Check with Bioware or EA for further information on that.

Thanks,

Brad
