    Read this before buying - can't play online if you are not 14


    Soo. EA won't tell you this on the Xbox store version but you have to have an Xbox account that shows you are at least 14 years old to play this. How dumb is that? Anyone 14 yrs or older probably will be playing COD or Battlefield and not this game. My
    kids bought this with their money yesterday only to find out they could not play it online which is most of the game. Hence, deleted it and got a refund.

    EA has gone nuts. Kids can't play kids games? Huh?

    :)

    14 days trial not working

    Hi,

    i use a 14 days trial, but this trial do not allow me to play online. I can donwload and play with the free game coming with Game with Gold but i can't go online. I play a week ago online during a free xbox live week end so i know my hardware and my network
    are fine. For example when i try to access GTA Online i keep receiving an error message saying that my profile can't go online. If someone know why please tell me before 14 days.

    Thanks to the one who gave me an answer

    Does anyone else miss the old days?

    I miss when games didn't have online passes so you could try a game online without having to pay 10$ before you get conned into buying an unfinished product for 60$.

    [/quote]

    So many things wrong with that statement...

    If you paid $60, you probably bought it new. If so, there's a online code included for free.

    If you paid $60 for a used copy, you are a gullible fool that I would like to sell my used games to.

    [/quote]Ok, every time you try to quote me you just make yourself look a derelict. Read the full post before making yourself look dumb. Yes, I paid 60$ because I couldn't try the game online before buying it, so I got con'd into buying this unfinished
    product. NHL, Madden, they all give you 5 days online free, yet BF3 does not. Why? Because if anyone got to play this online first, they wouldn't pay 60$ for it after

    [/quote]

    My mistake but it still somewhat applies. If you buy new, it wouldn't matter if you have to shell out for a online pass; only for used games.

    You bought the game without doing some research? Did you not play the beta? Did you not read some reviews from the community before purchasing?

    Need some help!

    You can't play online because you're on a silver account. You also can't use points to buy membership time. The lowest price £5.99 for a month, do read the terms before signing up.

    BATTLEFIELD BAD COMPANY 2 cant get online

    To play online you need to buy a gold membership. Click the avatar blade on the dashboard and you'll find the option in there. Do read the terms & conditions before buying, there's a load of stuff in there about auto renewal and what you can & can't do on
    the service that you really need to know.

    Problem with gold membership

    The 14 day trial doesn't give you the "full" gold benefits.

    Some games can't be played online with a 14 day trial card.

    cant refund my game policy not true got lied to

    No before 14 days or 2hours whichever comes first since you are past the 14days

    You don't qualify

    It isn't play before you buy
  8. ngocphi Win User

    requesting a refund

    Keep in mind there is q play limit less then 2hours

    Or 14 days whichever comes first

    It's not play before you buy
