The link to wear I can activate multi player settings

Hello Cool J, My name is Khaji I am the independent advisor and I will be happy to help you today.

I understand that you are having problems playing online multiplayer games with your Xbox account.

To activate multiplayer mode on your Xbox account, you must follow the following steps:

Press the Xbox button on your controller to open the guide.
Select “Profile and system” and then “Settings.”
Select “Account” and then “Privacy and online security.”
Select “Xbox Privacy” and then “View details and personalize.”
Select “Communication and Multiplayer” and then “Allow.”

Thank you very much for your patience and understanding! If you need anything else, do not hesitate to contact us again.

The active has no power boost in multi-player so it's just a faster reload nor does the meatshield appear in multi

. In campaign there is an active and meatshield.

If the game supports "system link" then yes.

Look at the back of the box where it tells you about the number of players and look for the words "system link".

Most online games do, but Forza 3 and 4 use system link to run a multi screen set up rather than multi player so worth checking the details for each game.

Do you have to wait until the 30 free trial of xbox live is done to allow the gold subscription to take effect? Meaning can I get my son a gold subscription and enter it now and override the free trial, non gold...??????????

In order to play multiplayer on Xbox Live, you must have a Gold subscription and currently your gamer card is shown in silver letters indicating that you do not currently have a Gold subscription.
