Hello, I’m hoping someone has been through this . . .
tldr - cannot get previously-unused limited edition code to work
I have played FM5 for about a month. I bought/downloaded it a couple of years ago but didn’t do anything with it until recently. I like the game so a couple of days ago found a “brand new sealed” FM5 Limted Edition disc, which I bought. I entered the code on my laptop, same MS account. Because the auto-install can be slow I went to the app tile on the Xbox and found “bonus content” or whatever it’s called, it was un-checked. Clicked it and installed it. I didn’t see anything that different in the game. I went to the marketplace and clicked on the VIP button, the MS store told me I owned it and could install it, which I did. Good, that’s two extra things installed now. Still nothing obvious in the game. No double money or anything for races or going up a level. Not seen a new icon. No tokens. No cars in the garage. No messages about content.
Now the cars from the three car packs, day-one, limited and VIP are all in the autoshow but only for full-price purchase. So I think the console/game realises something has happened, but it could be that these car packs were just added for free late in the game’s life. Either way I’m not getting content that I was expecting.
Anyone got any ideas?
Yours hopefully
