Bungie, I have a problem. My xbox parental settings dont let me download rated m content even though my account allows it. When beta comes out, is ther any way you could rate it T or something? Maybe inform microsoft about this problem, because alot of people have said even though your parental settings allow you to all ratings, they still dont let you download anything with that rating.
Please help, because I really dont want to miss out.

I hate this guy.

First, I don't think they rate it, second they aren't going to change it for one person.

"Momma didn't raise no fool."

I have the same damn problem. I don't know why it says that. I put it on "Allow All" and it still prevents me. I sure hope I can still play it too...

Tallahassee?
I spent two weeks in Tallahassee one night.

Why dont you turn the parental settings off. Or logically explain to your parents to remove it for the one thing.

That's your problem, unfortunately. The game is rated mature for a reason, if your Xbox is having problems, tough luck, ratings are meant to keep those who don't fit the criteria out.

  • 11.12.2009 11:47 PM PDT

you'll be fine reason being is because you paid for ODST, so if your downloading something for a game, and its M content your fine, i cant download M content either, yet i was able to download waypoint which is M, and download maps which are rated M. since you download it, and its only accessible from the disc, you'll be able to download it.

see, demos you arent allowed to download, but try buying a rated M arcade game, it will allow you. anything paid for, or something that goes to something you paid for, your allowed to download.

that seriously made me laugh.

Chances are, it might be RP (Rating Pending). Because the game wouldn't be rated that early in development.

PM me any Coup questions you have.

I had the exact same problem. It has nothing to do with family settings, as I figured out. Even if you put Allow All content, it still won't work. Your account must be an Adult account. I figured out how to change it. PM me if you want help, cuz I don't have time to explain it here.

I have the same problem, but here is a simple fix for it. you could just make an xbox live silver account and download it there, just make sure that it is an adult account, then when its downloaded on the silver account you can play it on your personal account.

  • 11.13.2009 5:57 AM PDT

You can't turn it off unless your account knows your 18 and up.

How? Ive tried a bunch of things.

  • 11.13.2009 5:15 PM PDT

If you bought ODST, you can get in it. They've already said the beta isn't going on xbox live marketplace, its accessed directly through the ODST main menu.

  • 11.13.2009 5:18 PM PDT

You have to have an adult account to d/l M content. M$ did this over 2 years ago. Just make a false account and use the 1 month free and d/l it. It's what I used to do.
