Maybe because not everyone was affected :drake: 

 

Maybe because it's been fixed as of  ~16 hours ago :drake: 

 

 

 

 

Servers being down is not the problem Cletus.  The problem is that single player games that you own have a DRM that requires you to have an online connection to Microdick servers.

No lemmings on SW noticed that they couldn't play games.... That should tell you something 

jehurey

so wait a minute, the thing that lemmings spent almost a full month pretending to be outrage about GT7..............is actually something that is inherently built-in to the ENTIRE XBOX DIGITAL LIBRARY

Voidler

This lemmdick rider doesn't even know the difference between XBL and Gamepass

Of course you're not an "xbox console player", hard to be a player when there's nothing to play on it :den:

 

You ARE a rampant xflop asskissing fanboy however.

 

"Of course you're not an Xbox console player, there's nothing to play on it"

 

and yet somehow I'm supposed to be raped because they're having server issues? :drake: 

 

See how fucking stupid your logic continues to be?

 

I came in this thread and didn't even say anything about the issue, just made fun of CRIERPOWER and your first post was crying about me being a huge Xbox apologist and serving my "corporate masters".. you're a fucking lunatic :tom:

I'm talking about the reason why lemmings here might not have noticed it.. it didn't affect everyone to begin with.. and it was fixed well before this thread was even made for many people :drake: 

 

And you DO know that Sony does essentially the same thing, right?  The games check via the CMOS battery in the console if the hardware had been connected and authenticated to a server within a certain timeframe, and thus you can play them "offline" but when that battery dies, it needs to connect to their servers and authenticate every time you play..  When Sony and MS shut their servers down and force you on to the next thing.. your games will be unplayable eventually.

For someone who supposedly doesn't care about Xbox, LemiJ sure is working OT defending this :sabu:

He’s writing full blown multi-paragraph essays trying to damage control :cruise:.

 

 

:rawf: He actually thinks he’s convincing anyone he isn’t a lemshit.

Sony sucks but they also fixed the CMOS battery issue.  Next

They "fixed" it... for as long as they want it to be "fixed"...

 

GT7 already proves that publishers/developers can have this DRM in their games regardless of the CMOS issue.

Yes, you are.  You're such a tinfoil hat wearing conspiracy clown it's fucking embarrassing :tom: 

 

I defend Xbox... precisely because you guys are such fucking lunatics.  Some of the biggest hypocrites in gaming period.

“Players should no longer be seeing issues when it comes to purchases, launching games, or joining Cloud Gaming sessions,” Xbox Support said in a tweet. “Thanks for being patient. Happy gaming!”

 

Thread backfire.

Backfire post. It’s not 100% fixed yet and there are still issues :mroff:

Very rare cases, hot-fixed 99.99999999999999999999999% a long time ago. Weird thread. Bad Timing.

 

Ultimate backfire.

Nice try, you're pulling that 99.9% figure straight from your ass. MS wouldn't be putting out those tweets if it was up for 99% of people like you claim.

 

It's still down for a lot of people and we are about to enter the third day :mj:

Can't even play single player games... This is the future that lemmings want. 

 

DRM with no lube, just how the love to bend over and take it up the ass :sabu:
