[QUOTE="MadScience2006, post: 289563, member: 1356"] I've always assumed that offline play meant just that...you could play offline on your [B]owned[/B] tables but high scores & XP were possibly not registered and online aspects of the game were disabled. I've also never lost the ability to play an "Owned" table in offline mode...my XP is of course reset to 1 (although I am really at 31 XP) due to no access to the servers. I tried this just now...I turned on Airplane Mode (iOS), thus disabling all internet communications (cellular & Wi-Fi). I then ran Williams and got the following message: "You are not connected to the internet. Leaderboards, online game modes and Privacy Settings require an active internet connection, therefore you may experience reduced functionality." Retry | Cancel Hitting "Cancel" will start the app with my XP reset to 1 (beginning XP level), Arcade Tickets and Zen Coins at the top menu bar display "Loading" indefinitely. Hitting "Arcade Play" brings up all of my owned tables which I can then play at will. All other aspects of the game such as the store, Daily Challenges and Multiplayer bring up some sort of "You're not connected to the internet" message that you need to cancel out of. I don't know if getting a high score on a table played in this offline mode will save your score, possibly in an on-device buffer until you're back online since I don't believe I've ever gotten a high score in offline mode (if I did, I didn't make note of it).
