  2. Account region issue

    I just got a used XBOX 360.
    I live in Cyprus, where XBOX Live is not supported, so i decided to choose UK as my country (did the same with PSN). I was planning on topping up my account with pre-paid cards.
    I managed signing up for XBOX Live trial and i also purchased 4 codes for Gears of War games from ebay. I managed redeeming the first one (using a VPN on my PC) and initiated the download on my console, i left it downloading and went to sleep.

    Today, i couldnt find the game in my games list. I went through the purchase history, the game was there, but the Play option just redirected me to the "My games" section. So, i decided to download it again, assuming download was interrupted somehow. And around 80% download stopped and i didnt see any error message (i might have missed it). But after some google search, i found out it has something to do with the region (probably my actual IP is d

    So, anyone has any ideas how to resolve this mess?
    thanks

    Region issue

    Hi,

    my account region is France same for my XB1. I access to French store then. If i buy a physical game in Germany ( I live there) would that be an issue (licences or compatibility) to add DLC or Add-on to this game through the (French) store ??

    Thanks for your time.

  4. region issue

    Hey there,

    When you sign onto your Xbox Live account, you will be connected to your local server. In terms of the games, I do believe you connect to people within different servers that are around the world. This means, I am correct, you will always be playing with
    different people from different countries.

    On Black Ops 3, I am unaware of any option which allows you to just connect with people from your country, and maybe your always been matched with people from different countries that are online and are looking for other people to join their public lobbies.
    As I understand it, the system matches you up the best it can in lobbies that you have good connection to.

    Although, I could be wrong and I could have missed something. If you are wanting to play with people from your region, why not post in the discussion forums in your region, asking if some of the community here would play with you - that are from your region?

    I hope this has helped in some way, and only go by my knowledge and the support articles

    Regards,

    Regional Issue

    you have to follow their rules and yes they have their own CONTENT laws under USK

    anything to do with xbox live has to follow the region of your account regardless of your console setting

    as per the international laws on content every service must abide by international laws

    what is allowed in US isn't nessarily allowed unmodified in Germany or any other place

    as the migration tool is not for temporary moves its suggested you make a temporary account for local purchases

    but as long as you do not live in the region of your account you will continue have issues with downloads and yes that's enforced by content laws

    USK is the governing body of Germany and they have the most strict of rules and one of the highest list of banned and controlled games
