    How do you play games?


    I just got Xbox one today and having a really difficult time getting any games to work. I have a solid wireless connection and have tested the connection , works fine. I installed both games, however it is asking me to sign in to play a game? Why am I not
    able to play this offline? Anyways the next process is really Frustrating, I go to add profile and it keeps telling me to check my home network? I have defaulted back to factory settings, same result. If I can't sign in to play games, how can you play games?

    Should I return this, I do not understand how to play games. Any advice?

    :)

  2. How do you play

    In games like Watch_Dogs, Splinter Cell, Max Payne it's all about the stealth (as much as possible). In games like Wolfenstein, I mix it up between running and gunning and stealth... depending on the mission. In GTA I tend to go guns blazing, but like I
    said before it's depends on the mission.

  3. How do you play

    Really depends on the game, since I usually let my role in the game determine how I play.

    But some general preferences of mine:

    Good vs. Evil: I prefer to play good. Even in games like GTA, I try to minimize killing and even stealing of cars. I don't kill animals in games unless it's forced or self-defense related. (I pretty much never got any advanced equipment in FarCry 3 because
    I wouldn't go skinning.) When you are faced with those 'Shoot the good guy 'cause you have to' QTE's in a game, I always just try to shoot off to the side or just let time run down to see if there is an alternative before I kill someone. In games where you
    can go lethal vs. non-lethal, I try to do non-lethal in any situation where the 'bad guys' are just guards or some other person who really hasn't done anything to you.

    Stealth vs. Action: This is very game based for me. In general, I prefer stealth, though. For one, you typically have to kill less people this way, and two, it's usually more of a tactical challenge and less a reflex challenge. If I want to test my reflexes,
    I'll just pop in Titanfall.

    Multiplayer Style: I play the objectives. I care about my stats... but I care about winning more. Players who cost you a game because they are worried about their K/D and won't just guard the flag or whatever irritate me.

    Hope that kind of answers what you are looking for.

    Hey there, so there is currently a service alert for xbox live mainly concerning signing into xbox one. You can stay up to date on that
    here.

    As for playing games, what I did was I went to settings, went to wireless settings and I disconnected from the internet. I was then able to sign into my account offline and able to play games.

    How do you play

    My play style depends on what I am playing.

    Good vs Evil: Always good. I tried to play DarkSide on KOTOR...couldn't do it.

    FPS-When playing MP it depends on the game type. I try to play Objective and defend whatever and die a lot in the process. I don't care about my K/D...it's like 0.61 or 0.62 for COD. I want to win. Sometimes I'll run and gun and die even more lol.

    I can't do sneaky I fail horrible; I won't even tell you how many times I have to play through that one level on COD 4. You know that level Ghille's in the Mist or whatever. I hate that level.
