    Restrictions on game downloads


    As of today, without any notice, I can't download games because they're apparently "for adults" (unlike, it seems games like Battlefield which I did download through the store just this week) which, in Microsoft's definition, seems to exclude 30-something year old people that work for the money they pay the gamepass with. I've gone through all the settings on the horrendously spaghetti-scripted website without finding any options that I might have used (without knowing) to impose age restrictions upon myself.

    Unless Microsoft have such a bad (and thus, apparently rather realistic) opinion of themselves they think anyone involved with them must need a legal guardian, there must be some weird error.

    Is that a common issue?

    :)

    Game Pass. Metal gear solid 5 the phantom pain.

    Hey there :)

    I think the game has no restriction ;)

    Are you sure that you downloaded fully the game and you're not playing while the console is still downloading part of the game??

    Just to be sure ;)

    Download of Game DVR clips restricted?

    OK, got it.

    Unfortunately, this is another minus for the XBox One compared to the PS4, which I also own. There is no such hassle when saving clips and screenshots to any external drive.

    At this point, Microsoft is miles ways from having a sleek upload/share/save game clips feature.

    Let alone from the XBox button double tap to use this feature which in every second try just goes back to the home screen.
