    Look at the second post--- No service alert Can't play single player game while offline :)

    Yet you argue with me....... If he tried playing a single player game while off-line it would have worked just fine... YOU just said that so what's the issue???

    It's cool you just want to argue with me... Careful though, sometimes I am right Can't play single player game while offline :)

    Ugh. There WAS a service alert when that happened to me. The issue isn't whether or not I could watch Netflix. The issue is whether there was an issue with Live, which might have, at some point, prevented the OP from playing an online game. There WAS.
    Again, what's confusing about any of this???

    What part of single player is so hard to understand??? No connection required at all to play Diablo 3... I maybe wrong about that.....

    Please prove me wrong!! Like I said it WAS an issue for PC gamers at launch A VERY public issue in fact. Long since fixed.

    Please note YOU are the only person on the planet defending the OP...

    YOU WIN KEDA!!!!!!! Congrats!!!!

    This was the only person to not play Diablo 3 single player last week... He decided to post here and not call or look into support... AFAIK you can play games off-line without issue 99% of the time.

    Poor MR. Redneck is part of the 1%

    Yes, poor Mr. Redneck might have had an actual issue that didn't affect every player. That sort of thing does happen. And, for his trouble asking, he was called a troll, and someone who thought he might have a legitimate problem was called ignorant. If
    you can't see why that's an issue and shouldn't be happening, then I don't even know how to explain it to you. Put simply though, it's incredibly rude.

    "….Or is that a new "feature" of the Xbox One?"

    If that´s not trolling then I think I must be from outer space lol

  6. How do we know the guy didn't buy the game digitally and how do we know he wasn't suffering a license issue with the game.

    If he didn't have the correct licences in place then he indeed would be prevented from playing the game while unable to connect to Live?

    A chap by the name of Paraffin Alien was the only one to ask for more other information. The bulk of posts after that came from someone branding the OP a liar and someone else arguing with that person.

    It's no wonder the OP didn't come back to answer Mr. P Alien's questions in a situation like that.

  7. Kedareturns, I`ll back you up on this one. I am on occasions having problems with repeatedly getting kicked from XBL, unable to login, etc

    So on goes the PC, internet check ok, login to xbox.com to check service status only to find no alerts.

    Back to XBL on console to still find login problems, so it does happen without microsoft being immediately aware.

    Sometimes it takes awhile before they detect the problem, just like my ISP.

  9. What I was trying to find out is as follows;

    Numerous games give you the choice on where to store your saves when starting a new game.

    So if you had you game saves set to cloud not hard drive and the XBL service was unavailable, would that not contribute towards making an offline single player game unplayable?

  10. Also do you actually know how licensing works on the 360 and One, Bong?

    If they aren't in place correctly and there is no connection to Live then the person wont be able to play the games when there is no connection.

    I suspect you do know and are just trolling for fun.

    Very well put....

    I thought I was assuming a lot Can't play single player game while offline :) What if he has the disk??

    BTW, NO that would not make a game unplayable if a save is on a different device....

    Just means you have to start fresh... a new game save is not what Unplayable means... JMHO...

    Seems the post worked Can't play single player game while offline :)

  12. Yet you never asked that question, whether it was a disc or not. You jumped straight into calling him a troll and an argument with another poster.

    Sadly this isn't even a one off. Looking at your other posts on the forum you treat near everyone with equal disdain.

    So I treat everyone equal..... What's wrong with that? you assumed it was not a disk without asking...... then went into licensing (wrong also if you have the cable and disk)

    Seems now your just arguing with me..... not really helping the OP.... Remember one fact..

    single player does NOT need internet on the 360. Knowing the game in question also helps.

    I have recently moved house and don't have internet yet so I bought WatchDogs for single player until I have Xbox live again. Unfortunately when I put the disk in it says your Xbox needs an update before installing is there anyway around this?????????

    I feel like I've been ripped off if I can't even play the single player offline!!

    Can't play RDR2 single player offline

    the reason it wants you to sign in is because it needs to check the digital license for the war horse.

    to be able to play offline you will need to make your Xbox your Home Xbox.

    the following link will guide you through this.

    https://support.xbox.com/en-GB/games/game-setup/my-home-xbox

    once you have done that you can go to your network settings and go offline and play without being connected to the internet
