Not purchasable in some regions !

It seems like i ( living in a country not supported by Xbox Live ) wont be able to purchase and play the game on my PC because of me not meeting the requieremts of region. So most smaller European countrys wont be able to play this game at all !

Feel free to order the digital version via amazon de / fr / uk / it / es … or whatever else …

I am living in bulgaria. Even if i manage ot order it from amazon. I wont be able to play it online because of my country not being in supported Xbox live list.

Hello.

Yes. I thought you just can’t order it via XBL. But that should work via amazon or whatever else. After that you just redeem the code .

At least you should be able to play the (digital copy of the) game offline on your XB1 and/or PC.

For your XBL problem I’m pretty sure there’s a solution … but you need to talk to people from your country … how to …

With a quick search i just found this … for example …

http://forums.xbox.com/xbox_support/xbox_360_support/f/9/t/1902528.aspx

Maybe you just contact him via private message … and tell him about your problem or questions.

And I think I know how to … but we are not allowed to talk about it here on the forums.

→ I just sent you a PM.

Thanks for the info. Anyone else had this problem and managed to solve it ?

Change your xbox/pc region to us,create us account,buy gift cards from your country,activate them on your account,buy game from ms store via ur ms account where you activated gift.and then you can play,xbox support confirmed it will work.btw i am from lithuania

It will work to buy and play offline, but since the xbox live doesnt support my region any multiplayer/online experiance wont work :slight_smile:

they don’t know I am from lithuania :smiley: my region is US and my account is US and etc so as long as they don’t check IP it for sure will work.Xbox live regions is made just for language and it should work perfectly for me

I dont believe that if the region on the PC is wehre you are located can connect to the xbox live servers. Thats why i dont wanna buy the game anymore. Because support said it wont work.

What? 3 different people from support said it will work and many people do that

When i asked the support they said prolly wont worso its not recommended to. Most likely to not work.

Just becuase of you I asked 2 more support people and everyone [ 5 or 6 total ] CONFIRMED THAT this game will work with changing region to US and creating US account.Also online will also work just fine.I don’t know what are you talking about but you are wrong

I`l stay in touch let the game gets its release and well talk :slight_smile:

Not available in Ukraine too. Probably should buy a PS4 and preorder GT Sport instead.

It will work on every country on world… Just set your computer system locale to United States,create account as shown in this guide Step by Step Guide to purchasing Games from US Xbox One Store from any region | Digiex Then you need to buy US version gift card from microsoft store [ will work when you have paypal ] and then buy the game via microsoft account… 5 different people from xbox/microsoft support chat CONFIRMED that this method will work and you will be able to play the game just fine…

Thanks for a suggestion! It seems quite “shady” though. Besides it doesn’t look so easy to get the “paypal”:

I wish they just would let us buy and download the game in a normal way.

On 21 age everyone should have paypal… and it’s not shady,I’ve tried this with 1dollar game and it went fine,also I know few peoples who tried this method for fh3 and it worked,games are in library just you can’t play because obviously its not released yet

First, PayPal is not fully functional in my country and a few people use it; second, how is it not shady to make up a billing address? Or did you use your real address in PayPal?

Gentlemen,

This is probably a discussion best held elsewhere, perhaps at xbox.com as it relates to where XBL works or does not work. Also, the subject of, let’s call it ‘creative financing’ is not appropriate here or anywhere really but certainly not here.

Thread locked.

Have a nice day.
