    Digital copy games


    I'm genuinely askin this because I'd like some sort of explanation Why the [Mod Removed] do I need to be connected to live to play the digital copy of the games that I've paid for and downloaded to my console. I mean it's right there on my hdd so why the
    connection?

    :)

    Can disc installs run without the disc if you have a DLC code?

    It's not a "DLC code", just a digital copy of the game.

    Yes, one can use the disc to install a game, then activate a digital copy. The digital copy will not need to re-download, it'll automatically use the disc install.

  3. I want my games to run off the disc not the digital copy

    So I have multiple games where I own the digital copy and the physical copy, the problem is that I do not want my games to run off the digital copy I want them to run off the disc. Is there a way to make them run off the physical copy and not the digital
    download.

    Hi, you don't have to be connected to Xbox live to play your games. Log in to the account that bought the content and do a license transfer, then re-download your games (this wont take long as they are already on the console), then disconnect your console
    from Xbox live and play your games offline.

    Unless of course you bought an game that requires an online connection because of the nature of the game

    Destiny is an online mmorpg

    Titanfall is also online only

    Even evolved

    If you réad the description of the game it will usually say if its online only

    Now if you had another console when you made the purchases its to prevent piracy

    All you have to do is do a license transfer

    digital copies of games

    A disc version and digital version of a game are two separate items so I don't thin that people who buy discs will get a free digital version.

    As for the requirement to leave the disc in the tray, nothing has been stated about that yet. Seeing as how the 360 requires a disc I would presume that the Xbox One would require one as well.

    true most likely the disk will be required (to stop installing and selling) but on that note it is speculated that digital games will be aloud to share
