Playing with friends online

Ok so im not sure were to post this, but why is it with every console instead of making it easier to play with friends at home you guys make it harder. Was trying to play split screen with someone at home and for some reason you cant just make a guest account
and play as my guest for the game i spent almost 90 dollars for?? You need to have a outlook email and remember the password and then phone number and age,name,blah blah blah hollly cow. PLEASE i am a loyal costumer have only had Xbox,Xbox 360 and Xbox One.
One of my favorite aspects of gaming is being able to play with people at my house or a friends house, gaming should be a social thing! **** don't make it so hard to continue to come up with reason to not switch to Play Station.

Troubles playing online with friends?

This happens with every popular EA game when it first comes out. I've gotten used to it. EA has dedicated servers. These servers have a limit. When an EA game first comes out, tons of players hop on and it puts a heavy strain on the servers making it harder
to connect to people. This will be like this for the first 3-4 days until people start to ease off of the game.

Problems Playing Online with Friends

I honestly don't know about these specific games but there have been games that require a hard drive for multiplayer. The 4GB is not considered a hard drive.

You can still sign someone in on the console as a guest, just follow the steps on this page

Be aware that some games don't support splitscreen though

Who exactly redeemed the code for Minecraft? If a different account than your daughter redeemed the code, they are the "true owner" of Minecraft.

The owner of Minecraft can however allow one console to share their games to anyone playing on that specific console.

To do that, you will have to sign in with the account that redeemed Minecraft. Then open the Guide menu by pressing the Xbox button, and going to the settings.

There go to "Personalization".

Check the "Home Console" status for the owner of Minecraft on that console.

If it is not the Home Console, make this the Home Console of the Minecraft owner, and anyone playing on that console can now play Minecraft.

Be aware however: An account can only have one Home Console at any time. And you can switch Home Consoles only 5 times within 365 days.

It's not possible. There is two separate versions of the game. So to play with his friends, he would need the Xbox One version of the game.
