Absolutely fucking ridiculous. Thank god I play ps4 because I detest Xbox but my partner in tonight's Fortnite duos tourney is still locked out. So we're fucked.

Wow, I can't believe they just cut off digital game access immediately like this. Had RDR2 suspended and it kicked me out to the menu, now just erroring to "service not availabe." Strange because I can access the store and mixer...

I don't think I'll be buying any more multiplatform games on Xbox.

I can't start any of my games? Wth is this nonsense? My xbox is set to allow me to play my games offline and yet I can't access my games? This isn't an issue on PS4 so I'm not sure exactly wth is going on. Permit my language but I recently purchased an X and was just about to play WWE2k18 so now I'm a bit salty.

Even if Xbox Live is down you can still play all your games. You need to set your console to "offliine" mode.

Wait, so if Live goes down, we lose access to our installed/owned games as well? I tried putting my console offline and I still can't start any of my games.

I wonder if it's because I haven't set this as my home console? Can't remember if I did since I just got my One X a week ago and I used to own an OG xbox one before.

If it's not your home console, you must be signed in.

I had thought this the case as well, but I also cannot launch any games.

I'd guess it's some sort of system wide authorization glitch, but strange to see how it defaults to locking you out of your games.

None of my games will work even in offline mode wtf. Can you usually not play your digital Xbox games offline? That's a deal breaker for me if so.
