    Some of you may have been having issues connecting to the GOW Beta, so i figured I would share these steps to fix the 'Not Authorised To Play' problem, however these steps seem to be (no guarantee) fixing this issue for most people (just make sure you have BOTH codes downloaded, download code and access code);

    Step 1: Go to my games and apps and press the menu button on gears of wars (3 lines/start button)
    Step 2: Click on manage game
    Step 3: Click on gears of war beta access code and click install!
    ADDITIONAL INFO:
    If you are not seeing the BETA Access Code icon when you go into Manage Game:
    1. Unplug your power cable from the brick and unplug the brick from your Xbone.
    2. Plug it all back in and boot your Xbone.
    3. Try and redeem your latest code again and it should try and redeem as an "Access Code"
    4. It will have to download the file so check your "Queue" directly after.
    5. Allow that to download and then relaunch the game.
    Note: If you click "Redeem Code" and it just refreshes a black screen then it did not redeem. It will take you to a confirmation page when it works correctly. If this is what happens when you try and redeem then do the above steps.
