Hi all I’m hoping someone can help me with this question. My day one x1 has started acting up, if the box is on and I change the disk it gets stuck saying insert disk and doesn’t read the disk I just put in. I have to completely turn it off and then back on to play the new disk. I will be getting a replacement soon and was wondering how this works with transferring my Forza 5 stuff. I don’t want to lose my gifted cars. Anyone have any experience doing this?
Everything should be saved on cloud when your new one arrives set it to your home xbox and you should have it all back but all updates and dlc have to be done again but you wont havd to pay again
Okay thanks for the info. I was worried that I might lose some of my stuff.
The beauty of the cloud. Although it would have been better to have removable hard drives. Either way.
From what I’ve seen, you will have to install the DLC to your new console by going into ‘Games & Apps’ and installing content from the ‘add-ons’ screen. This will transfer the content licenses from your former console to your new one.
It will be like the first day you played FM5 with the exception of if you have the LCE you won’t have to rescan your codes to activate it. You will have to download/install all DLC including the VIP/Day One stuff. Your save game will sync out of the cloud and you won’t lose any game progress. I know this because I had the exact same issue you are having. It started out with only having issues reading Bluray discs and slowly progressed to not being able to read game discs. My current replacement Xbox is now starting to develop issues reading Blurays so I’m waiting for it to start having issues again reading games.
My question for you is it a Day One Xbone? Mine was and 2 of my buddies also are on their 2nd Xbone due to this exact same issue, both were Day one editions. This isn’t the same issue that many reported on release where there’s a clicking in the drive, it just eventually cannot read any disc inserted.
