You can't run open events on the Xbox One yet. That's why there hasn't been any. The Xbox One is different to the 360, you need to have the accounts pre-loaded onto the Xbox's or you need to give every single competitor an account.



This sort of operation just simply is not possible for the man power of even a major company like MLG. There's far too many competitors and some even sign up on the day of the event beginning. It's not possible.



The only reason they could do it at Anaheim is due to every single match being played on the mainstage, so the accounts were just loaded on there.



It's obviously also a major investment to buy all these Xbox Ones but even if they bought them, it wouldn't be possible to run an open event on them in the current state of the system. They need to update it to allow offline accounts.
