Support NeoGAF

[StudioTan]

Can anyone explain how this is supposed to work? Bought the deluxe day one edition via the Smartglass app, then later went to my Xbox to download it but the Store was trying to make me purchase it again. Ugh.

Oh wait! I am able to download the regular game, just not the deluxe. Do I get the deluxe stuff separately?

I know for the day one cars and bonus cars they were separate downloads and it seems like the different editions just bundle the various things together like VIP and the car pass. If you go to Manage Game everything you have associated with that game can be installed from there.

XboxSupport just had me DM them my Gamertag. Let's see what happens...

Same.

 

[Wario64]

Since not everyone got unlocked, asking for GTs actually isn't a bad idea I guess, just the reason why they're asking for it is weird

 

[Aeqvitas]

XboxSupport just had me DM them my Gamertag. Let's see what happens...

I can't DM them cause they aren't following me, so if this is the only solution, a shit storm is gonna be a brewin'

 

[_DrMario_]

I bet the rest of the games are going to unlock at 12 PST.

I'm going to bed. Fuck you MS.

 

[IOnEI Falcon]

Just came back into this thread and trying to understand. The game unlocked but can't be played?

 

[bananafactory]

Same situation - I checked the latest people they're following and it's all the people submitting complaints. My guess is they will follow you, and then ask for your gamertag.

Giving some love to the drop-dead gorgeous GT40:

Hard to focus on driving when it's a car that good looking!

 

[OneLetter]

I've been through a bunch of launches on the dev side (next one in February!), so I know what they're going through. Sometimes a few switches just forgot to get flipped, so you gather data, find a similarity, and correct it.

Just relax, take a few more sips of a frosty beverage, and it'll get fixed.

 

[Nyteshade517]

Well that's an hour of my life wasted for absolutely nothing...awesome

Problem is some of us pre paid some damn good money weeks ahead of time. Then stay up late to play an hour or so before getting less sleep than normal.

I am sorry but if you are going to let people give you money early.. you damn well better have those switches flipped. If I pre ordered at wal mart and showed up they damn well better have my disc as well. Same thing.. Why give them a pass?

They now have Forza Horizon 2 posted on their service status page.

Hi Xbox members. Is your preorder for Forza Horizon 2 not unlocking? We’re working to get this fixed and get you on the track ASAP! We appreciate your patience in the meantime. Please check back in 30 minutes for an update on this issue.

 

[Caddle]

It worked for me I preloaded. You can check my gamertag Aurie. I played the first couple of races in the BMW Z and now off to bed.

Well it says check back in 30, so I guess it's good that they have a timeframe. Let's see what happens...

 

[Chance Hale]

Will I have the Tesla from the start if I have the VIP pack or is coming down the way?

 

[Nyteshade517]

My guess is that you'll have to buy it from the Autoshow or whatever the shop is called...you'll get 1 free purchase of the car since it's DLC...same as the changes to the FM5 economy

Well, its good to know I am not insane and the only one having an issue.

Crack beer....watch Archer...try again. Thats the plan

 

[Krilekk]

Sadly it's just their default error message. Reinstalling now, let's see what happens at 42 %.

 

[bananafactory]

Alright, screw this. Gonna take a deep breath, watch an episode of Brooklyn Nine Nine...and check back in a half hour. I must be strong.

Well that is good news. Although my take away from that page is that PBS has been on that pages since... time immemorial?

 

[brokenbeans]

How do you install the vip pass?

I click on it and I its takes me to the purchase page or do I have to wait till the game unlocks?

 

[Label]

Yeah I am tempted to re-install to see what happens, but then if I start and then it magically unlocks I will be sad!

[sangreal]

Man, driving the tesla is so bizarre w/o any engine sound

Will I have the Tesla from the start if I have the VIP pack or is coming down the way?

you have to buy it from the shop (for free) which you can't do for quite a bit (3 road trips, 5 races iirc -- long ass tutorial)

 

[bananafactory]

Welp, Forza isn't working and Netflix won't load any titles for me.

Tonight just wasn't meant to be, guess I'll just sit on the floor and drink until I fall asleep

 

[Chucker]

I'll laugh pretty hard if it "works" at 3AM EDT.

licences should unlock with the game

 

[Dramos]

Hey everyone, I'm so excited to get my copy of Forza Horizon 2 tomorrow!However, I also am very motivated to develop a FH2 application for Windows Phone and Android. Nothing too complex, I was thinking about something like a reference guide or a tuning calculator. Let me know what you guys think. I'm up for ideas!

[Fox Mulder]

Works great for me.

how do you get the reward cars though?

 

[sangreal]

Works great for me.

they're mixed in with all the other cars you can buy at the autoshow, but free

buying cars isn't unlocked until Nice

[BrandonPckrfn]

I love it when games make me smile. Amazing.


Fucking sucks to hear pre loading isn't working for some people.

 

[BigMoose]

Mine also won't unlock. This is a massive bummer.

 

[brokenbeans]

Please be fixed for EU.

[Twin Tails]

[Chums Knifeblade]

All types of sads. Makes me keep thinking twice about doing digital downloads. First Destiny(with the time zone thing) now this.

 

[Art Vandilay]

So is this going to be an annualized franchise? It looks great so I'm tempted to bite, but not sure if I should go the digital route.

annualized?...probably not...every 2 years would be my guess

Because physical always releases at the same time around the world right?

 

[soundscream]

When I uninstalled the demo it went to my queue section, now the full game is in there and the demo is gone.

they aren't for me, all have prices and nothing in my garage besides what's given so far.
