XBOX ONE DEALS WITH GOLD AND ACHIEVEMENTS OFFLINE!!! PLEASE READ FULL POST BEFORE COMMENTING

Galactic Geek, READ THE POST PROPERLY! I said, i know that the FREE GAMES with games with gold are only rental, I KNOW, i said it in my main post if you read it!!! But, with DEALS WITH GOLD, now READ what i say "DEALS WITH GOLD, not, GAMES WITH GOLD", (BIG
DIFFERENCE), Games with gold is 2 free games a month. Deals with gold is DISCOUNTED GAMES. Again i am completely fine with games for gold being rental based only as they are FREE. When it come to deals with gold, right, this is the DISCOUNTED GAMES, i believe
that this should be content that you can play OFFLINE with no internet access due to the fact you have PURCHASED said content. So if you have a storm as i mentioned in the main post and you want to play one of those said games you downloaded at a price from
DEALS WITH GOLD you can't access them unless you are signed in and logged online to your account. YOU DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO THOSE DISCOUNTED GAMES OFFLINE!!!! READ IT PROPERLY PLASE, THANK YOU

Well your only flaw is that you stated "recently tried to play content that i downloaded". How did you download them without an internet connect? Seems a little suspect. I think the same (GWG rules) might apply to DWG too. Since they are both benefits
of having a Gold account maybe the XOne needs to be connected to the internet to verify you are Gold so as to continue receiving the benefits of being Gold. If it were not the case then I could buy 1 month of Gold (when a game I want in on DWG) receive the
discount and then disconnect the internet and still have the benefit without being Gold. MIGHT I SUGGEST BOLD OR ITALICS NEXT TIME INSTEAD OF CAPS.... IT IS VERY ANNOYING.

It's been known ever since they announced Games with Gold on the Xbox One that you would need an online connection and Gold subscription in order to play any free games you got as part of the promotion. As for achievements, I'm not sure why you can't unlock
them offline, but my guess is it's because the only real point of having them really, is to show them off to other people; if you're not online, then there's not really much point.

We are not blind...... we read your post

You are a Gold member---- You have access.

Your "what if" senerio is NOT valid.

The op has every right to complain about this, he is a gold member who bought a deals with gold game only to discover that he needs to be permenetly sign in to XBL to play it.

I understand the GwG games needing conectivity but discounted games should have the licence included so you can play it offline.

I love my X1 but I wont touch digital anymore unless I have to.
