  1. Why won't xbox series x let me install a disc offline?


    So as the question states, my Xbox is refusing to let me install disc offline, first I tried with call of duty advanced warfare and it wouldn't install, I thought oh disc must be broken. However, I noticed when trying to install agents of mayhame and installing a few other cods, it's not the disc but the Xbox, I disconnect it from the internet, unplug and replay, yet it says installation stopped and when I click on it I get the msg "Make sure your connected to xbox live". Why is it forcing me to be online to install a disc?

    :)

    Why won't xbox series x let me install a disc offline?

    Well no but not for the reasons you think

    Modern games don't fit on a single disk you have some stuff to install from the Activision servers

    You will be hard pressed to find a game that doesn't require you to do an internet install to install the game

    The game can only install upto what the size of the disk has

    But the rest of it would.be from thw net

    Fyi games include a lot of cgi scenes which do take a lot of room

    Some disks are just place holder and it would pull the install files from the net 2019 mw 2 comes to mind

    You aren't going to get far if you domt connect to the net

    Unless you buy older consoles and games

    Pre bluray games like 2009 I think I could be wrong on the date but then you would run into multi disk games

    Which is not normal since we switched to bluray

    But now games have to be installed from the inteenet

    Cannot finish installation of Xbox One discs in "Offline" Mode

    If I understood well, are you not able to install disc based games on both Xbox One console and Series X when you're offline?
    Or is this happening with only one of the two consoles?
    The issue is happening on both consoles - the Xbox One and Xbox Series X. It only seems to happen with Xbox One discs. I have no issue installing Xbox 360 discs or Digital games.

    And, is this happening when you're offline?
    The issue with the Xbox One discs failing their installation at a certain percentage happens both online and offline. However, I discovered a workaround for the issue for when I am connected Online (searching for the game on the Store to initiate the download, as opposed to visiting My Games and Apps). However, I am now trying to find a solution that would allow me to install these discs while in Offline mode specifically, as the workaround doesn't work while Offline.

    Current outage revealed huge flaw with digital content and game pass…

    Hi,

    Setting your console to your 'Home Console' allows digital content to played, even if there is a Live Outage or your own internet service isn't available. Essentially allowing you to play your downloaded games offline.

    We can't provide official comment on the cost of the Series S and it's disadvantages hardware and cost wise compared to the Series X as most users on this forum (myself included) are just users like you, not Microsoft staff.

    The Series S|X can use external storage for Xbox One games, it's the Series titles that must be installed internally or on an optional expansion card.

    Xbox disc games do not have install keys. The individual discs are not unique, which is why you can trade them in. As there is no key, installed disc games will not work on the Series S.

    xbox one games on xbox series x needs to be updated online before play

    i have a Xbox series x and i don't want to to use Xbox network and i got Xbox one games

    and when i installed them offline and once they finished installing them offline and launching them say (THIS GAMES NOT READY YET GO ONLINE FINISH INSTALLING IT) I WANT TO KNOW WHY THIS NEEDS TO BE DONE WHATEVER IT IS STOP FORCING PEOPLE TO GO ON TO XBOX NETWORK
    A lot of games these days have online updates, even for offline disc games. Sounds to me like that game needs to download something else to finish working. Which game is it?

    New Series X on All Access - Error when trying to claim Game Pass

    Same here.

    I upgraded from the ultimate pass on Xbox one X to the series X but it won't let me claim it on the series X.

    Also Tetris connected won't open either.
