  1. Unable to play Forza Horizon 2


    I bought FH2 digitally yesterday, downloaded the game and went to play it this morning.

    There seems to be a mandatory update which is constantly failing.

    I've tried doing a hard reset on my Xbox. I've tried deleting and redownloading the game, same problem.

    The only way I can play the game is to take the console offline, however, as soon as I put it back online the game tries to update and it fails.

    Does anyone have any ideas which I might not thought of to get the game to work?

    :)

    Unable to play Forza Horizon 2

    what error are you getting, try deleting the download and re download it to see if that cures it.

  5. As I said in my first post:

    I've tried doing a hard reset on my Xbox. I've tried deleting and redownloading the game, same problem.

    The error I'm getting is:

    There was a problem with the update.

    Forza Horizon 2 needs an update, but something went wrong. For help, visit xbox.com/xboxone/update/help.

    With the options to try again or to check network connection.

    When I try again the update fails, when I check the connection it comes back fine.

    I've tried it on both a wired and wireless connection. I've followed the link posted in the error message, but none of the steps there helped.

    Try contacting Xbox support and see what they advise because it sounds like you've tried everything possible

    Just another thought I know you said you checked your connection and it came back fine try resetting your router just in case

    Forza Horizon: Storm Island dlc

    Hi SquallLion1

    Unfortunately Forza Horizon 2 - Storm Island has reached "end of life" status and was removed from Xbox store on September 30th 2018

    Here is an extract form the Forza Week in Review post on https://www.forzamotorsport.net

    "Forza Horizon 2

    A heads up for the Forza community: Forza Horizon 2 will reach “end of life” status on September 30. That means that the game and its associated DLC will no longer be available for purchase. After September 30, players who own Forza Horizon 2 will still
    able to download and play the game and its associated content as normal. However, Forza Horizon 2 and its DLC will no longer be for sale. Forza Horizon 2 is currently available as part of August Games With Gold so, if you haven’t played it already, now is
    a great time to grab it."
