Is XBox live (or internet connection) required to play?

No. At least, not for the campaign (story mode), which can be played locally by two persons. Matchmaking is the only part of the game where Xbox Live Gold is highly advisable. I'd recommend Internet connection with a base Live account (no gold) if you want to keep track of your records and achievements.

No, you do not need to be online. As far as I can tell there's no online element. The only thing going online will do for you is update the game with any bug patches or fixes. It's not necessary to play.

You don't have to have Internet to play the story mode, you just need the Internet to use the online features

Before an update that happened last month. The game had to be connect to Internet in order to play ( with a server, which you couldn't always connect to). So you needed internet and hope a server had enough room for you. Now is completely fine. And I'm not sure if when you purchase the cd for the game if it still requires an account with origin.com. If you do digital download like i did, you need to create an origin account and insert a code in order to download. So long story short, you can now play offline. Anytime, anywhere.

No you do not need Xbox Live to install the DLC. You install it directly from the disc.

DLC is already on the disc. You only connect to the internet if you want to play it online. Put the second disc in and download content.Play the game with the first disc. I dont have mt xbox connected to the internet and everything works great!

Yeah, Wifi is internet, and you can play it without an Internet connection. But you won't be able to download updates, and play online.

You need to install it but no I do not use the cd. I play it without being on the internet. It puts a i con up and you go to it and it comes up for you to play.

You can play if you select play without connection, and then play single player. Try by this way.

Yes it is a disc you install to play the game. However, you must always be online to play the game... And yes I purchased it without knowing that feature (it's in very small print).

Yes, campaign mode can still be played without an Xbox live mebership. You can also play your friends on your Xbox via multilayer mode. Xbox live gold is required to play people online.

No, you have to install the game on your computer it requires a certain amount of space on your hard drive ..see product for details on that. That's how computer games work. If you want a pop it in and play version , look for it on Xbox

You need an Xbox live gold subscription.... Xbox live gold is a paid subscription that Xbox users have to buy in order to play online games. Without a gold subscription you can only buy services and games from Microsoft but you cannot play online, since this game only has online multiplayer and no single player campaign you can't use it without the paid subscription.

Hello, Internet connection is required because DLC (Downloadable content) is on the disk. DLC may enhance the game and therefore these features wouldn't be available if there wasn't an internet connection. I hope this helps. Regards, Carolyn Number One Discount Store

You should be able to play games without internet, simply playing discs you've purchased. But you'd miss out on any updates your system may need.
