Says it couldn't get authorization for purchase, anyone know what the problem is here?

using a pic with a xbox one banner is a bit misleading… when i realised its for windows i felt depressed about the time of my life spent.
- dadeadman on 01/02/2016 - 13:17
  
  That is how it shows in store. Its not for xbox but we can get achievement points. Besides its Xbox live banner not xbox one.
Meliodas on 01/02/2016 - 13:41

Another question, do you have to include an ukrainian address in this purchase? Can someone confirm this?
- Vool on 01/02/2016 - 14:13
  
  Yes, just find a hotel address or something.

  I generally use the address of the Australian Embassy in whatever country I'm purchasing from. Technically it's Australian soil, right?

You sir are a legend.
i was wanting this game was just about to buy it for $50 from one of the many key sites.

I saw this deal yesterday but thought this was for xbox one for some reason.

THANKYOU!!!
Downloading now.
- Axelstrife on 01/02/2016 - 23:47
  
  well already found a big problem. for some reason every time you die in game the game idk crashes? no error message just brings me back to the desktop and game isnt on anymore not even as a proccess.
  - IJustKnowStuff on 03/02/2016 - 10:42
    
    Just your computer. I've died loads. Damn that bear.

    - IJustKnowStuff on 03/02/2016 - 16:31
      
      @holden93: It's possibly a driver issue. I've had a similar problem where a game would just simply disappear much like you described. Event logs looked like it had something to do with drivers vs some other process on my PC. I re-download the latest drivers for my video card and everything worked fine from there.
    - Axelstrife on 04/02/2016 - 14:02
      
      @Spectator: well i just uninstalled all junk programs and games i don't want and used ccleaner and now it didnt crash after dieing.
      
      sweet :) time to smash this game.

  It's a known bug they're working on.
Glyde62 on 01/02/2016 - 16:14

Is it possibly to back up the game after downloading it? or will I have to re download it if I format?

Yes! It worked perfect, now i need to upgrade my computer to play it how it deserve it!

Many thx to all ozbargairners sharing!

Also FYI if anyone installed it to you c: you can go into apps under system settings and "move" it to another drive.

  Thanks, I was trying to figure out where the option was to choose where to install to. I have windows 10 on my SSD that's only 100GB for loading windows very fast and it was the only option for a 30gb game.. I need to put it on my 3TB hard drive
Sage222 on 01/02/2016 - 19:40

Not working anymore? Changed to Ukraine in settings on Win10. Followed link to Ukraine M$ store (Came up as the app). Used a Ukraine address.. Try to buy. Says "Contact Microsoft Support - Can't process your payment"

Tried my AMEX and 2 VISA.. Microsoft keeps charging me 0.50c each time.. yay…

Anyone got it working in the last 30mins or so?

you wonder why people pirate games when the damn companies won't take your money when you try and give it to them!
- AliensStoleMyMoney on 01/02/2016 - 19:44
  
  the reason i have pirated games as pc gamers get fucvked with broken ports (im looking at you ubisoft) one day ill get to finish the ghost recon future soldier campaign ………

  It could be the credit card company blocking payment due to suspicious payments?
buff nerd on 01/02/2016 - 19:42

Purchased this in the last 5 minutes. Didn't bother adding a "Ukraine" address and use you own local one except add a "0" at the end of the post code. I followed the example of a fellow ozbargainer and it worked.
- Sage222 on 01/02/2016 - 19:47
  
  So your payment options on your Microsoft account is credit card with your normal address though still with Ukraine as the country and an extra 0 at the end of your postcode?
  - buff nerd on 01/02/2016 - 19:51
    
    Yep sure did.
    - Sage222 on 01/02/2016 - 19:51
      
      bugger just tried.. no love.. was it AMEX or VISA out of interest?
    - buff nerd on 01/02/2016 - 19:53
      
      MasterCard. I know this may sound irrelevant have you tried restarting your computer?
  - smerm07 on 01/02/2016 - 20:06
    
    im on the phone to my bank now. checking to see if its them blocking it. with CBA.
    - abeeson on 01/02/2016 - 20:08
      
      let me know, i'm CBA as well, though they seem to be able to take the 50c test purchase fine….
    - smerm07 on 01/02/2016 - 20:08
      
      im not even getting the 50c deduction.
    - abeeson on 01/02/2016 - 20:12
      
      @smerm07:
      
      Weird, let me know, i just checked my CBA Visa and i definitely am, its hard to miss when its every transaction in the list (i've tried a few times now :P)
      
      EDIT: How you go with the bank that is
    - smerm07 on 01/02/2016 - 20:13
      
      they are checking it out now. they can see the 50c at their end. i can't in my netbank. on hold atm.

  Try to reset store app cache. Also someone mentioned they had to clean system cache files by right clicking on C drive. Also try different payment method or card.
  - abeeson on 01/02/2016 - 20:24
    
    Cheers, tried both the store clear and the cache, also tried indian store (~$18.50 AUD btw) and got the same error :(
    - Pricebeat on 01/02/2016 - 20:36
      
      did you restart device before trying again and check for updates again? If not may be try windows store digital gift card? But not sure if it will work on international order.

      @Jimmy007:
      
      Yeah tried that, no luck.
      
      Thought about using the gift card, but i'm doubtful it'll work on an international order :(
emwearz on 01/02/2016 - 20:34

To get it working I had to use the MediaCreationTool and I saved it to a USB (to save downloading again if there were issues) and selected to download updates.

If you have more than 1 SATA deveice, you have to unplug them all to update via MCT, really stupid. Anyhow, after a day of messing about my Windows is up to date and I am downloading the game.

Worth it!
ChillBro on 01/02/2016 - 21:04

Got the same problem as above, can't pay as it gives a "We're having trouble processing your payment and we'd like to get it sorted out." error while charging 50c every time.

It might be due to my CBA mastercard debit card. For those who had it working, what card were you using?

Edit: have tried NAB VISA with the same problem.
- emwearz on 01/02/2016 - 21:41
  
  I used my CBA Debit Mastercard.
  - ChillBro on 01/02/2016 - 21:43
    
    Does the Microsoft account you are using match your payment details?
    - emwearz on 01/02/2016 - 22:14
      
      I am not sure what you mean. When you change the region you have to enter a new payment method, I entered my real details but just added a 0 to the end of my area code.
      
      I use the same card to purchase products on the Windows 10 Store and the Xbox 360 / One store.
    - ChillBro on 01/02/2016 - 22:16
      
      @emwearz: Yes I've tried that but when I rebooted my pc I was forced to login again to my Hotmail account which is why I was wondering if it checked the cc details against my Hotmail account.
      
      Edit: Just tried removing my hotmail account and double checked the CC details but still got the same error. Looks like I have to give up.

ZestyNachos on 02/02/2016 - 07:35

Yea same issue here with the "Cannot process your payment" error. Tried two Westpac cards and tried added credit to my account via the website but that didn't work either.

I've really wanted to play this game but couldn't justify the normal price tag as I know the previous game only took me about 10 hours to complete.

Oh wells.
TheSnyper on 02/02/2016 - 08:16

Just tried this and it works for me.
Used my actual address with Ukraine as country and added 0 on postcode with a CBA Mastercard.
No problems at all.
maesterxen on 02/02/2016 - 09:13

Had the same issue that others were having last night and could find a workaround, using a CBA debit mastercard, so annoying as I would have loved to play the game but cant afford the full price right now, hopefully someone works out what stopping some of us from getting it!

I'm still having troubles, and I'm noticing a trend with people with MasterCard getting it to work, and people with VISA having trouble.

If you have a VISA that worked, or a MasterCard that didn't, can you post a reply to this? (maybe with the bank as well if applicable)
- ZestyNachos on 02/02/2016 - 12:04
  
  Westpac Mastercard and American Express didn't work.
- fufufu on 02/02/2016 - 12:52
  
  Pretty sure that's not the problem.
  
  There have been people succeeding with 28 degrees and mine got refused. I also have a ING Mastercard debit card and that didn't work either. Both of them show the 50c charge but gave the same error.

I had the problem with payment and was wondering if it was because my account wasn't verified. Has anyone who got refused got a verified account?
- ChillBro on 02/02/2016 - 19:48
  
  I tried with an unverified account and again with a local account but haven't tried 'verifying' it. Could you let me know if that works? The increasing amount in 50c fees is getting a bit ridiculous for me.
Pulse123 on 02/02/2016 - 17:53

Is anyone else having problems with the game downloading, I purchased the game fine but it keeps stopping mid download. Sometimes it will resume, where as other times it just starts again. I think the most I have managed to download is 14 gb
- rakeem on 02/02/2016 - 22:47
  
  if you read the description in the store it mentions that the download bar is bugged and even though it restarts, seems to change amounts etc the download is probably fine. mine now says download is at 3.0 of 11.1 Gb when it started out at 0.3 out of 26Gb
- IJustKnowStuff on 03/02/2016 - 16:39
  
  Best thing is to look at your Network Performance in Task Manager. If it's utilising the network bandwidth then you should be good.

    Yes I have. But it says "not compatible with your device". Tried it on a low end tablet and an old computer with with core 2 duo and old graphics card.
rakeem on 02/02/2016 - 23:01

so this worked fine for me.
just to confirm for others how my experience went.
1- Changed Region to Ukraine (no reboot required - Windows10)
2- Went to Windows Store (which was now in Russian?) and bought game for 234(whatevers)
3- Went to Buy/Checkout and a box popped up asking me to add a payment method for the new Region
4- Add CC with my normal details EXCEPT wouldn't accept postcode so added a 0 at the end as others had mentioned AND put the country as Ukraine NOT Australia (not sure if this was necessary but it worked)
5- Windows Store processed payment and started downloading (took a little while to start up)
pretty sure the sale was on for a few days, so if it doesnt work maybe if you wait 24hrs and try again if there was some kind of transaction block(or contact credit card company)?
Cupid Stunt on 03/02/2016 - 10:58
