[dark10x]

I can't find it with my JP tag

How do you go about making a European account? It defaults to United States on mine, and I am unable to change it.

First off you should go to the passport site : http://www.passport.com/. Make sure you are not logged in, and click on the "create hotmail account" link. Now, here is the important part, the site will ask you where you are from, select either Japan, the US, or Europe. Remember, this is the country where the demo is available, not where you really live! You will require some information regarding those countries so Microsoft will allow you ro register the e-mail address.

Here is the info we used:

United States
Postal Code: 10012
State: New York, City New York City
Phone Number: 1-866-530-1234

Japan
Postal Code: 150-2345
Province: Tokyo-to
Phone Number: 3201-3331

Europe/Germany
Postal Code: 54292
City: Trier
Phone Number: 065112345

You can use any valid address and phone number from the country where the demo is available.

Once you have filled out the info and applied for the Hotmail account, activate it and turn on your Xbox360. Press the guide button and choose "switch profile" (X Button). Now create a new profile, and a new Xbox Live Account, make it a Silver account instead of a Gold and assign it to the hotmail account you just made. Finish the setup and login your new account. Go to the marketplace to download the content you want. It should be noted, just because you downloaded the content, doesn't mean that it will be playable. Some demo's may be region locked to the specific region it was designed for.

GO!

R6:V was hiding in the Japanese Marketplace under Demos by Genre -> Shooters here. 477.57MB.

 

[ibu]

To quote Scotch whose quote actually also applies to the japanese demo query

Look in the All Demos or Genre folders (and if it's not there, try again). I had the same thing but after trying a couple of times it was suddenly there

Thanks! Downloading now.

 

[Morbo]

It's also in the "Bringing it home" section, oddly enough.

 

[Wollan]

Thanks. I'm genuinely excited now for this download to finish. Haven't played a good R6 game in ages.

 

[Tieno]

Is it SP or MP?

 

[hadareud]

it works with my japanese account, no luck with UK or US.

The download is ****ing slow though.

 

[raYne]

Is it SP or MP?

Should be the same as the recent OXM demo and that was singleplayer.

 

[Sho Nuff]

oh yeah baby, here it comes!

 

[BuddyC]

Haha. The difficulty selection is Normal or Realistic.

 

[hyp]

i wonder what the reasoning is behind not having the R6 demo available to North America? oh wells, guess i'll have to jump on this with my JP account.

 

[Diablohead]

Confirmed MP play in the demo at all? I look foward to trying it.

Looks like SP only.

OXM demo I believe.

 

[Wollan]

Still at 21%. *damn you download speed*

 

[Sho Nuff]

HOLY F UCKIN SHIT.

That initial helicopter drop onto the Dante's roof -- :O

:O :O :O


:O :O :O :O

Please stop, I can't play this demo until friday

*cries profusely*

 

[DSN2K]

FFS its still not up, why do I pay for this shit >_<

 

[Goreomedy]

FFS its still not up, why do I pay for this shit >_<

Because there isn't another solid option until Nov 17th?

I'm pissed, too. Being forced to jump through hoops and voilate the Live TOS to get this demo, just so OXM can have an exclusive, is absurd.

 

[Scotch]

Just finished the demo, it's really fun. Unsurprisingly it reminds me a lot of GRAW, but with some nice new touches, like the improved cover system and blind fire. Zooming in and shooting a guy in the head feels pretty sweet as well.

I do notice the occasional slowdown though.

 

[BuddyC]

Awww, the team mates are Michael and Jung

 

[adg1034]

I ask again- what do you have to do in order to make a European Live account?

[adg1034]

Damn- I didn't see that. Sorry.

 

[Wollan]

Are most of the members from the original still in this one? (or at least the full game?)

 

[BuddyC]

I don't know. Was certainly hoping for Dingo though.

 

[mikeGFG]

Ubisoft Montreal ****ing nailed it. Thats all I have to say.

 

[adg1034]

Downloading now. Thanks.

 

[Sho Nuff]

Is this the first title that's shipped on Unreal 3?

The environments in this game are just plain silly......seriously, they are so goddamn sick. Totally seamless too. This engine seems a little bit better at doing indoor stuff than the YETI engine they used in GRAW.

how does one do this? i'd like to do it also. got a link?

 

[Sho Nuff]

Vsync is on. Frame rate is 30fps with slowdown.

It won't let me sign the **** out

 

[SonnyBoy]

Is the demo only available on the phony account after you download it?

 

[Y2Kev]

It won't let me sign the **** out

Yeah, Safari for me does the same. Retarded.

 

[DSN2K]

finally up now all is forgiven MS.

 

[macksplack]

Is the demo only available on the phony account after you download it?

no it's available on all accounts(with every demo btw)

 

[raYne]

Is the demo only available on the phony account after you download it?

No, all demos can be used by any profile on a system once you've dl'd it.

 

[Variable]

Ubisoft Montreal ****ing nailed it. Thats all I have to say.

I think this game is being made by their Quebec office (Quebec City)

 

[Regret Truth]

Holy crap!! This demo is hot!! GAF, play on realistic PLZ! Asside from the framrate issues this is the best R6 ever.

 

[Wollan]

79% come on, come on!

Except the region locked demos.

GAF, you never cease to amaze me. Thank you.

 

[raYne]

Except the region locked demos.

That goes without saying, but region locked demos can't be played on a system that isn't from that region to begin with. Regardless of which profile you use...

I'm trying to make a Japan account and it's making me use the free month for Gold? Can't I just make it Silver?

You just get one month of free gold, what's wrong with that? Happens everytime you create a new gamertag

I followed the tutorial on the previous page and the free Gold is asking for a City and Address. Now what.

And now all the text is in Japanese :lol

Search for an adress in Japan on google, preferably of some company.
