I own an Xbox One, and a copy of Need for Speed: Rivals.
Until a few days ago, everything ran fine. I was able to play online at my leasure, and had a very enjoyable online experience with the game.
One day, however, I sat down to play, and I got a couple of messages.
The first one read "Sign into Origin to acess online features".
"Alright, then." I said, and proceeded to press A. The screen switches over to the "signing into the Origin..." screen, probably a split second, and immidiately goes to "You must be signed in to Xbox Live and the EA servers in order to access the online features of this title."
I looked at the screen, puzzled. Maybe I had just been dropped from the network, or something.
"Xbox, go home", I said. I was at the dashboard now, and could visibly see all my friends and dashboard advertisements.
I was even more confused at that point, so I went and checked both my network and multiplayer connection at the settings menu.
As I suspected, I was still connected to the internet.
So I went back to NFS, and tried to connect to a game via the all drive settings/extras. Same message both times.
This has been a consistent problem for a solid week now, and I have no idea why. I'm connected through Origin, as far as I know-and I'm using the same email address as my Xbox 360 account. I've even gone through the whole "add friend/search for friends" process on the Origin aplication for the PC.
Can someone explain to me why it's doing this? I'd very much like to fix this and engage in online activity again. Getting chased by/chasing AI cars gets kind of stale after a while.
