    Hi, so why aren't achievements available offline?


    Why? Like how hard is it to have a local database in an Xbox for that? If I recall correctly, you could get achievements offline on the 360, why would Microsoft regress like that? They don't f*cking care about user friendliness. Like what's the point in connecting to the internet if you want to get achievements in a single player game? I just want to understand their thought process for this.

    :)

    Hi, so why aren't achievements available offline?

    Not just modding, but now broken achievements, unobtainables and discontinued ones can be fixed, or parameters altered without a full patch and recertification of the game

    Hi, so why aren't achievements available offline?

    Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.
    I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

    Hope you're doing great today buddy

    This is to avoid gamerscore modifications, in the past some people took advantage of this and use it in the wrong way

    So, now an internet connection is to verify that you're doing all the steps correctly

    Hope it helps, if you have further questions feel free to ask

    You can earn a limited amount of achievements offline but they won't register until you connect to live again.

    It's like this now to prevent gamerscore modding

    Firefox listed as game in xbox app

    Hi there,

    I wouldn't be overly worried about that myself, I've seen other apps marked as game too, also Games that aren't available on Xbox (and don't have achievements etc) They aren't causing any issues.

    What is the reason you want to remove it?

    I bought some points, but can't use them!

    Hi,

    the strange part is that you mention that your bought microsoft points have moved to an offline profile?

    That shouldn't even be possible, since that profile doesn't/shouldn't have an Microsoft Account.

    -

    Can you check this link, to see if the transaction is on your account:

    commerce.microsoft.com/PaymentHub

    if it is on there, the points should be available there, if they aren't there I would advise to check if the 'offline' profile doesn't have a windows live id (Microsoft Account) connected.

    -

    You could also consider connecting that offline account to Xbox Live, that would keep your achievements and save games etc.
