    Offline play


    Hi, I have recently set my Xbox account to my home Xbox so I can play games offline as my internet needs to be fitted in the near future, however when I try to test it going offline it still pops up that I need to change my Xbox to a home Xbox after doing so.

    Can anyone help me with this problem it will be much appreciated as I will want to play games when offline in the future. Thanks

    :)

    Premetto che non ho Minecraft su xbox quindi resto generico per la risposta.

    Per impostare la xbox per giocare offline ti consiglio di seguire i passaggi in questa guida:

    https://support.xbox.com/it-IT/xbox-one/networking/using-xbox-one-offline

    Per quanto riguarda l'utente è una impostazione di sicurezza che puoi modificare scegliendo per quali operazioni deve essere sempre richiesta la password e per quali no.

    Nel menu impostazioni della console, seleziona account -> Accesso, sicurezza e passkey -> Modifica preferenze per l'accesso e la sicurezza e scegli le impostazioni in base alle tue preferenze.

    [Translation - I state that I have no Minecraft on xbox so I remain generic for the answer. To set up the xbox to play offline I suggest you follow the steps in this guide:https://support.xbox.com/it-IT/xbox-one/networking/using-xbox-one-offlineAs
    far as the user is concerned, it is a security setting that you can modify by choosing which operations the password must always be requested for and which are not. In the console settings menu, select account -> Access, security and passkey -> Change preferences
    for access and security and choose settings according to your preferences.]

    Hey rippen, Updated all my games last night and switched on Pstar golf, Got a free canyon course and all was unlocked again.

    I'm going for Platinum on Dark souls, this is the only reason I haven't been on XB1 except for Titanfall. Just mentioning this as my activities are blank.

    There's 2 reasons why I think this isn't working for the OP (and could potentially be both):

    1) Any GwG games you have must be played online because XBL needs to recognize that you "own" the game and/or a Gold subscription (a limitation of the GwG promotion).

    2) Powerstar Golf recently reverted to a free-to-play model; due to this change, the game may have also been turned into an online-only game as well.

    Yeah it's really quite weird Rippen, In all honesty I can just go online and play. I just didn't want to wait for the update and was downloading allot of "stuff" on my pc and other consoles. But it really got me thinking about countries with worse internet
    then here and limited download space. Just wanted a quick Powerstar bash

    I think you have to physically pull the Ethernet cable( if thats how you are connected) to get it to revert to local saves,even if you select offline. Haven't tried myself. Been connected since launch. i should experiment and see.
