    I pre-ordered the game in the first couple of days you could pre-order it just so something like this wouldn’t happen but it has now, just looking for a fix so I can play, thanks.

    Why does it keep telling me, “To play this, you’ll need to buy it” when I try to play the new MW2 if I’ve already pre ordered the vault edition?

    Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.
    I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

    Hope you're doing great today despite this Colton

    Sorry for the inconveniences, right now the pre-order was cancelled for some gamers
    Please double check if you're affected, for this go to your order history and check if the order status says cancelled:
    https://account.microsoft.com/billing/orders

    If yes and If you was charged you're going to receive a refund in the next 3-5 business days (can take longer depending on your financial institution)
    Once received or if you want, you can purchase the game again

    You can double check this current problem here:

    To play this you’ll need to buy it

    Facts the same happened to me when i tried to log on right now. Hopefully its just the game being down like they say but my friends are playing so it makes no sense. Im confused cause it doesnt even pop up in my all games list.

    On xbox it says “You’ve used your free gamertag change. To change it again, you’ll need to buy a gamertag change on xbox.com.” I’ve never changed it and it doesn’t tell me i need to buy a gamertag change when i try on xbox.com, it just does nothing when
    i click claim then gives me the error when I refresh.
