GameShare & Early Access
In the "Games & Apps" section on the dashboard, NFS Payback says Pre-Ordered (and downloaded), however tells me I have the option of purchasing the game, which also it gives me 2 different start time...

Sorry if you've said this already and I missed it. But we're game sharing. So it says pre-ordered and his home xbox is physically mine. So I'll have access to it come midnight because we DO gameshare, AND it says pre-ordered on MY account.
Again sorry for any misunderstandings I'm just looking for clarification.
Again, thanks!
So lets see here, based on your first post you have the standard edition and he has deluxe edition right? Or only you have the game and its the Deluxe edition or standard edition?
If you have the Deluxe Edition on your account and your Xbox, then yes you will get all the Deluxe benefits such as the 3 day early access and Deluxe bonus packs. But if you have standard edition on your account and your Xbox then you wont get any extra benefits even if you do share it (unless he gives you access to his account).
Basically whichever account has the Deluxe Edition on will get all the Deluxe Edition perks, that is it really.
- Thanks for being patient.
I've never purchased the game. I logged into my friends account today and downloaded NFS (deluxe edition) to my Xbox. I also set my physical Xbox as my friends home Xbox.
So my home Xbox is at my friend's and vice versa.
At the Microsoft store, it still gives me the option to purchase Nfs (from my account) but on the game menu (installation & updates) it says pre-ordered.
What I believe you're saying is since the Xbox says pre-ordered, I can ignore what the store says, and since we share the game, I'll get early access to NFS come midnight since I did in fact download the deluxe edition.
I stated in my first post that we both have EA and Gold as a reference to not needing to share the services.
Anyway thanks for the response. Sorry for the misunderstanding.
