Xbox One requires online connection every 24 hours, at least
"With Xbox One you can game offline for up to 24 hours on your primary console, or one hour if you are logged on to a separate console accessing your library," Xbox Wire writes. "Offline gaming is not possible after these prescribed times until you re-establish a connection, but you can still watch live TV and enjoy Blu-ray and DVD movies."
This is the clearest explanation of the Xbox One's internet requirements since Microsoft's reveal on May 21. In a post it removed from Xbox Wire, Microsoft said the console "does not have to be always connected, but Xbox One does require a connection to the Internet."
Microsoft recommends a broadband internet connection of 1.5Mbps for the Xbox One, and suggests mobile broadband for those without access to an Ethernet connection. Xbox One has two wireless antennas, and a gigabit Ethernet port and 802.11n wireless.
"Because every Xbox One owner has a broadband connection, developers can create massive, persistent worlds that evolve even when you're not playing," Xbox Wire says.

I know that this idea has been scrapped, but what if you don't have an Internet connection and just want to play offline?

Shrill I find it stupid that you will have to have an online connection.
They removed that, because we said we didn't like it. They listen to us, for once. Because at the end of the day, we pay for their food/home's/cars etc...

I understand that they want to fully integrate the cloud to this console but they should have options other then get a 360 to solve this problem, this isn't innovative it is stupid and a waste of time, I understand that more people are getting internet every day but not everyone has this option, it will be years before everyone has internet.
